ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange in Minute Ventilation 5 Minutes From Opioid Induced Nadir5 minutes after opioid antagonist administrationTo assess the change in minute ventilation at 5 minutes of intramuscular nalmefene and intranasal naloxone reversal from the opioid induced nadir.

TypeOutcomeTime framePopulationUnitsMeasured as
PRIMARYChange in Minute Ventilation 5 Minutes From Opioid Induced Nadir5 minutes after opioid antagonist administration
Eligible analysis set was defined as subjects/periods who were randomized, received study drug, had at least 1 valid pharmacodynamic (PD) measurement, and their opioid-induced respiratory depressions (OIRDs) were worse than baseline for minute ventilation (MV) and transcutaneous CO2 (TCO2). The data for the overall treatment period was calculated as the average of available data from individual periods.
