- Limitations and caveats
Study enrollment ended early, resulting in less than half of the number of participants needed according to the power analysis. Our study site was closed to enrollment during the recent pandemic, and there was major supply chain issues for saline and IV equipment. Ultimately the study was closed due to the extenuating circumstances.

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Difference of Pain Intensity Before and 30 Minute After Study Drug Administration in Participants With Any Pain Type | 30 minutes | The outcome measure is the average change in pain score. Change in pain score is calculated for each participant by subtracting the post-treatment pain score from the pretreatment pain score (i.e. pre-treatment pain score minus post-treatment pain score), then averaging them within each group. The pain score is collected using the visual analog scale, which is a 100mm line that participants make a mark on to indicate their pain intensity. The line is then measured from the left end of the line to where the mark was made. The minimum value is 0mm (left end of the line) being no pain and the maximum value is 100mm (right end of the line) being the worst pain possible. |
| Primary | Difference of Pain Intensity Before and 30 Minute After Study Drug Administration in Participants With Abdominal Pain | 30 minutes | The outcome measure is the average change in pain score.

| Primary | Difference of Pain Intensity Before and 30 Minute After Study Drug Administration in Participants With Headache | 30 minutes | The outcome measure is the average change in pain score. Change in pain score is calculated for each participant by subtracting the post-treatment pain score from the pretreatment pain score (i.e. pre-treatment pain score minus post-treatment pain score), then averaging them within each group.

| Primary | Difference of Pain Intensity Before and 30 Minute After Study Drug Administration in Participants With Trauma/Musculoskeletal Pain | 30 min | The outcome measure is the average change in pain score. Change in pain score is calculated for each participant by subtracting the post-treatment pain score from the pretreatment pain score (i.e. pre-treatment pain score minus post-treatment pain score), then averaging them within each group. The pain score is collected using the visual analog scale, which is a 100mm line that participants make a mark on to indicate their pain intensity.

| Primary | Difference of Pain Intensity Before and 30 Minute After Study Drug Administration in Participants With Viral Pain | 30 min | The outcome measure is the average change in pain score. Change in pain score is calculated for each participant by subtracting the post-treatment pain score from the pretreatment pain score (i.e. pre-treatment pain score minus post-treatment pain score), then averaging them within each group.
