Measure	Description	Time Frame
Kinovea Software	Kinovea is a free 2D motion analysis software that can be used to measure Craniovertebral angle, thoracic kyphosis angle and lumbar lordosis. This low-cost technology has been used in sports sciences, as well as in the clinical and research fields. One interesting tool is that it can measure an object (or person) passing in front of the camera, taking into account the perspective between the camera and the recorded object.	5 Minutes
Visual Analouge Scale	A visual analogue scale (VAS) is a measurement tool that uses a straight line to rate the intensity of subjective feelings, most commonly pain. The line is typically 10 cm long, with one end representing the lowest level (e.g., "no pain") and the other end representing the highest level (e.g., "worst pain imaginable"). A patient marks the line to indicate their current sensation, and the distance from the zero point is used as a score, often out of 10.	1 minute
