ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange in Participant's Subjective Reported Chronic Pain
Pain was self reported and documented on days 1, 3, and 5 of the 6 days period prior or after the treatment with oxytocin or with placebo. An average of the three data points pre or post treatment were calculated.
Study evaluated maximum pain level by using the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI). Scale range from minimum value of 1 to maximum value of 10. Higher score indicated more pain (worse outcome).
PrimaryChange Between Pre and Post Treatment Pain Scores Using the McGill Pain Questionnaire.
Once prior to treatment with placebo OR oxytocin (day 1 of pre-infusion period / 6 days prior to the infusion) and once after treatment with placebo OR oxytocin (day 1 of post-infusion period / 1 day after the infusion)
Change in the individual's subjective reported pain following treatment with placebo compared to the change in reported pain following treatment with oxytocin as assessed by McGill Pain Questionnaire. The McGill questionnaire is a self-report measure that explores both the quality and intensity of pain. Minimum score: is 0 (no pain) and maximum score is 78 (severe pain). Higher score indicates higher level of pain (worse outcome)
PrimaryChange in Participant's Subjective Reported Pain
Pain was self reported and documented on days 1, 3, and 5 of the 6 days period prior or after the treatment with oxytocin or with placebo. An average of the three data points pre or post treatment were calculated.
Study evaluated maximum pain level by using the Numerical pain rating scale. Scale range from minimum value of 1 to maximum value of 10. Higher score indicated more pain (worse outcome).
SecondaryChange Between Pre and Post Treatment Anxiety Scores Using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale Questionnaire.
Once prior to treatment with placebo OR oxytocin (day 6 of pre-infusion period / 1 day prior to the infusion) and once after treatment with placebo OR oxytocin (day 6 of post-infusion period / 6 days after the infusion)
Change in the individual's anxiety following treatment with placebo compared to the change in reported anxiety following treatment with oxytocin as assessed by Hospital anxiety and depression scale The Hospital anxiety and depression scale is a self-report measure to evaluate anxiety and depression. Minimum score is 0 and maximum score is 21. Higher score indicates higher level of anxiety (worse outcome) 0-7: Normal or no anxiety/depression. 8-10: Mild anxiety/depression. 11-14: Moderate anxiety/depression. 15-21: Severe anxiety/depression.
SecondaryChange Between Pre and Post Treatment Depression Scores Using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale Questionnaire.
Once prior to treatment with placebo OR oxytocin (day 6 of pre-infusion period / 1 day prior to the infusion) and once after treatment with placebo OR oxytocin (day 6 of post-infusion period / 6 days after the infusion)
Change in the individual's depression following treatment with placebo compared to the change in reported depression following treatment with oxytocin as assessed by Hospital anxiety and depression scale The Hospital anxiety and depression scale is a self-report measure to evaluate anxiety and depression. Minimum score is 0, maximum score is 21. Higher score indicates higher level of depression (worse outcome) 0-7: Normal or no anxiety/depression. 8-10: Mild anxiety/depression. 11-14: Moderate anxiety/depression. 15-21: Severe anxiety/depression.
SecondaryChange Between Pre and Post Treatment Anxiety Scores Using the "State" Part of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) Questionnaire.
Once prior to treatment with placebo OR oxytocin (day 6 of pre-infusion period / 1 day prior to the infusion) and once after treatment with placebo OR oxytocin (day 6 of post-infusion period / 6 days after the infusion)
Change in the individual's anxiety following treatment with placebo compared to the change in reported anxiety following treatment with oxytocin as assessed by the "state" part of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) questionnaire. The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) is a measure of trait and state anxiety. Minimum score is 20 to maximum score is 80. Higher score indicates higher level of anxiety (worse outcome)
