Primary Outcome Measures
| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) | The Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) is an 11-point scale used to measure pain intensity, ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain imaginable). | 6 Month |
Neck Disability Index (NDI) | The Neck Disability Index (NDI) is a questionnaire used to assess how neck pain affects a person's daily life and disability. It consists of 10 items, each scored on a 0-5 scale, resulting in a total score ranging from 0 to 50. A higher score indicates greater perceived disability due to neck pain | 6 Months |
Breastfeeding self efficacy scale | All items are preceded by the phrase ''I can always'' and rated on a 5-point Likert scale, ranging from 1 (not at all confident) to 5 (always confident). Total scores range from 14 to 70, with higher scores reflecting more significant levels of breastfeeding self-efficacy | 6 months |
