Registered outcomes3

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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryTotal score of the Toronto Western Spasmodic Torticollis Rating Scale (TWSTRS).In the DBS-group: After 3-17 years of continuous GPi-DBS. In the BoNT-group: After minimum 3 years of regular BoNT injections (minimum 12 injection cycles), and 4-6 weeks after the last injection.
The TWSTRS is a validated clinical scale that assesses cervical dystonia symptom severity, disability and pain (Consky et al, 1990; Consky and Lang 1994; Comella et al, 1992; Dubinsky et al, 1991). In the first part the physical signs of cervical dystonia are scored by the investigator (Severity subscale), the second part rates disability/limitation of activities (Disability subscale), and the third part rates the intensity and duration of pain related to the CD, and its impact on the patient´s ability to participate in normal activities (Pain subscale). The TWSTRS Total score is the sum of the TWSTRS Severity score (0-35), the TWSTRS Disability score (0-30) and the TWSTRS Pain score (0-20), with a maximum total score of 85. Higher scores indicate more severe symptoms/disability/pain.

SecondaryTotal score of the Cervical Dystonia Impact Profile 58 (CDIP-58)In the DBS-group: After 3-17 years of continuous GPi-DBS. In the BoNT-group: After minimum 3 years of regular BoNT injections (minimum 12 injection cycles), and 4-6 weeks after the last injection.
CDIP-58 is a patient-rated questionnaire that assesses disease-specific health-related quality of life. It includes 58 items grouped into eight dimensions. Summary scores of the eight dimensions are generated by summing items and are then transformed to a 0-100 scale. High scores indicate worse health.
