Registered outcomes12
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Total Morphine Milligram Equivalents (MME) Per Day | From time of admission to time of discharge (about 11 days after admission) | This will be calculated by calculated by taking the total of MMEs from all opioids received and dividing by length of stay |
| Secondary | Total Morphine Milligram Equivalents (MME) Over Hospital Stay | From time of admission to time of discharge (about 11 days after admission) | This will be calculated by calculated by taking the total of MMEs from all opioids received |
| Secondary | Pain as Assessed by the Defense and Veterans Pain Rating Scale (DVPRS) | From time of admission to time of discharge (about 11 days after admission) | This is a 4 item questionnaire and each is scored from 0(no pain) to 10( as bad as it could be, nothing else matters), enhanced with functional word descriptor anchors at each pain level and "traffic light" color coded bars to delineate levels of pain; mild (1 to 4, green), moderate (5 to 6, yellow), and severe (7 to 10, red) pain a higher number indicating more pain Average pain score during the course of the hospital stay will be reported. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants Discharged Form Hospital With a Prescription for an Opioid Medication | Discharge (about 11 days after admission) | |
| Secondary | Number of Participants Discharged Form Hospital Without a Prescription for an Opioid Medication | Discharge (about 11 days after admission) | |
| Secondary | Number of Participants That Have Incidences of Opioid-related Complications, Such as Ileus, Aspiration, Unplanned Intubation, Unplanned Admission to an Intensive Care Unit, and Use of an Opioid-reversal Agent. | From time of admission to time of discharge (about 11 days after admission) | |
| Secondary | Hospital Length of Stay | From time of admission to time of discharge (about 11 days after admission) | |
| Secondary | Number of Hospital Free Days | 30 days | This will be calculated as (30 days-length of stay (LOS)) |
| Secondary | ICU Length of Stay (Participants With >0 ICU Days) | From time of admission to ICU to time of discharge from ICU (about 12 days after admission) | |
| Secondary | Number of Days on a Ventilator (Participants With > 0 Days on a Ventilator) | From time of intubation to time of extubation (about 14 days after admission) |
