Registered outcomes7

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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPain Relief at 2 Hours After Treatment2 hours after treatment
Participants reporting pain relief defined as a reduction of headache severity from grades 2 or 3 (moderate or severe pain) at baseline to grades 0 or 1 (no headache or mild pain) at 2 hours after treatment
PrimaryTime to Relief Within 2 Hours After Treatmentwithin 2 hours after treatment
Participants reporting time to relief (defined as the first time that a participant reported grade 0 or 1 in headache severity within 2 hours after treatment (for the comparison of rizatriptan 5 mg and sumatriptan 50 mg).
SecondaryPain Free at 2 Hours After Treatment2 hours after treatment
Participants pain free (defined as a reduction of headache severity to grade 0 \[no pain\]) at 2 hours after treatment. Each participant rated headache severity on a 4-grade scale (0 = no headache; 1 = mild pain; 2 = moderate pain; 3 = severe pain).
SecondaryLack of Functional Disability at 2 Hours After Treatment as Measured by the Level of Impairment in Daily Activities2 hours after treatment
Participants with no functional disability measured by the level of impairment to daily activities at 2 hours after treatment. Each participant rated functional disability on a 4-grade scale (0 =normal; 1 = daily activities mildly impaired; 2 = daily activities severely impaired; 3 =unable to carry out daily activities, required bed rest).
SecondaryPresence or Absence of Associated Symptoms (Photophobia, Phonophobia, Nausea, and Vomiting) at 2 Hours After Treatment2 hours after treatmentParticipants who recorded the presence or absence of the associated symptoms photophobia, phonophobia, nausea, and vomiting at 2 hours after treatment.
SecondaryParticipants Who Used Escape Medication 2 Hours After the Treatment Dose2 hours after treatmentEscape medication is defined as rescue medication for participants who experienced lack of efficacy from the study medication.
SecondaryDuration of Relief (Time to Recurrence From the Time of First Recorded Pain Relief [Grade = 0 or 1])24 hoursDuration of relief or the time to recurrence from the time of first recorded pain relief (grade = 0 or 1) was calculated for responders who had a headache recurrence
