Registered outcomes4

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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryOverall behavior during dental treatment assessed with the Houpt Behavior Rating Scale.During the dental treatment visit, from the start of the dental procedure until completion of treatment of the primary tooth.
Child behavior during restorative treatment of a primary tooth will be assessed using the overall behavior subscale of the Houpt Behavior Rating Scale. This subscale ranges from 1 to 6: 1 = aborted, no treatment rendered; 2 = poor, treatment interrupted and only partially completed; 3 = fair, treatment interrupted but eventually completed; 4 = good, treatment difficult but fully completed; 5 = very good, limited crying or movement; and 6 = excellent, no crying or movement. Higher scores indicate better overall behavior. Behavior will be independently rated by 3 trained raters using the standardized video recording of the dental appointment.
PrimaryChild behavior during dental treatment assessed with the Ohio State University Behavioral Rating Scale (OSUBRS).During the dental treatment visit, from the start of the restorative treatment of the primary tooth until completion of treatment.
Child behavior during restorative treatment of a primary tooth will be assessed using the Ohio State University Behavioral Rating Scale (OSUBRS). The scale classifies behavior into four mutually exclusive categories: 1 = quiet behavior, no movement; 2 = crying without struggling or disruptive movement; 3 = struggling or disruptive movement without crying; and 4 = struggling or disruptive movement with crying. Higher scores indicate more disruptive behavior. The score recorded for each participant will be the highest OSUBRS category observed during the dental procedure. Behavior will be independently rated by 3 trained raters using the standardized video recording of the appointment.
PrimaryDental anxiety during treatment assessed with the Venham Clinical Anxiety Rating Scale.During the dental treatment visit, from the start of the restorative treatment of the primary tooth until completion of treatment.
Child dental anxiety during restorative treatment of a primary tooth will be assessed using the Venham Clinical Anxiety Rating Scale (VCARS). This observational scale ranges from 0 to 5: 0 = relaxed, smiling, willing and able to converse; 1 = uneasy or concerned, with brief or quiet protest and possible tears, but able to continue; 2 = scared, with anxious tone or verbal protest, quiet crying, tense or raised hands, but still coping; 3 = pronounced verbal protest or crying and attempts to stop the procedure; 4 = anxiety interfering with coping, generalized crying and prominent body movement, although verbal communication remains possible; and 5 = child out of contact with the situation, with loud crying, inability to listen to verbal communication and escape behavior. Higher scores indicate greater dental anxiety. The score recorded will be the highest level of anxiety observed during the dental procedure. Anxiety will be independently rated by 3 trained raters
PrimaryChild cooperation during dental treatment assessed with the Frankl Behavior Rating Scale.During the dental treatment visit, from the start of the restorative treatment of the primary tooth until completion of treatment.
Child behavior during restorative of a primary tooth will be assessed using the Frankl Behavior Rating Scale. The scale classifies behavior into four categories: 1 = definitely negative, refusal of treatment, forceful crying, fearfulness or other overt evidence of extreme negativism; 2 = negative, reluctance to accept treatment, uncooperative behavior or withdrawn/sullen attitude; 3 = positive, acceptance of treatment, sometimes with caution or reservation, but following the dentist's directions; and 4 = definitely positive, good rapport with the dentist, interest in the procedure, laughing and enjoyment. Higher scores indicate better cooperation. The score recorded will be the overall Frankl category observed during the dental procedure. Behavior will be independently rated by 3 trained raters using the standardized video recording of the appointment.
