Registered outcomes2

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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Participants With Adverse Drug ReactionsFrom the start of administration of Precedex (hour 0) to the discharge from the intensive care unit (ICU) (up to Month 33, at the longest).
An adverse drug reaction (ADR) was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to Precedex in a participant who received Precedex. A serious ADR was an ADR resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Relatedness to Precedex was assessed by the physician.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants Who Were Evaluated as Effective (Responders) by the PhysicianAt the end of administration of Precedex (up to Month 33, at the longest)
Overall effectiveness of Precedex was evaluated at the end of Precedex administration by the physician. Clinical effectiveness was evaluated as effective, not effective, or indeterminate by the physician. Clinical effectiveness proportion was defined as the proportion of responders divided by the total number of responders and non-responders.
