Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimarySum of Pain Intensity Difference Over 48 Hours (SPID48)48 hours
The SPID score incorporates the cumulative analgesic effects of tapentadol IR on pain intensity over an extended period (48 hours) allowing for an evaluation of multiple doses of drug, even when dosing frequency may vary. Scoring is derived from the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) from 0 = No pain to 11 = Pain as bad as you can imagine. A positive difference between the mean SPID48 for an active study drug and placebo would indicate a numerically larger analgesic effect for subjects dosed with active study drug than in the placebo group. A higher value in SPID indicates greater pain relief.
SecondaryTime to First Rescue Pain Medication Use.3 daysThe effect of tapentadol (CG5503) IR on the time to the first use of rescue pain medication.
SecondaryThe SPID at 12 Hours Relative to First Dose.12 hours
The SPID score incorporates the cumulative analgesic effects of tapentadol IR on pain intensity over an extended period (12 to 72 hours) allowing for an evaluation of multiple doses of drug, even when dosing frequency may vary. Scoring is derived from the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) from 0 = No pain to 11 = Pain as bad as you can imagine. A positive difference between the mean SPID12 for an active study drug and placebo would indicate a numerically larger analgesic effect for subjects dosed with active study drug than in the placebo group. A higher value in SPID indicates greater pain relief.
SecondarySPID at 24 Hours Relative to First Dose24 hours
The SPID score incorporates the cumulative analgesic effects of tapentadol IR on pain intensity over an extended period (12 to 72 hours) allowing for an evaluation of multiple doses of drug, even when dosing frequency may vary. Scoring is derived from the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) from 0 = No pain to 11 = Pain as bad as you can imagine. A positive difference between the mean SPID24 for an active study drug and placebo would indicate a numerically larger analgesic effect for subjects dosed with active study drug than in the placebo group. A higher value in SPID indicates greater pain relief.
SecondaryPercentage of Patients Who Reported Very Much Improved or Much Improved From Baseline in Patient Global Impression of Change to Day 3Baseline and 3 daysOrdinal measure indicating change from the start of treatment (On a scale of 7 = Very much Worse to 1 = very much improved) to endpoint at Day 3
SecondaryTotal Pain Relief (TOTPAR)at 48 Hours48 hours
Total Pain Relief (TOTPAR48) was defined as the weighted sum over all pain relief scores(PAR) from 0.5 hour to Hour 48, with the actual time elapsed from the previous PAR observation as the weight. A higher value in TOTPAR indicates greater pain relief.
