Registered outcomes4
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Change in constipation severity measured by the Constipation Assessment Scale | Baseline (Day 0), Day 7, and Day 14 | The Constipation Assessment Scale consists of 8 items, each scored from 0 to 2. The total score is calculated by summing all item scores and ranges from 0 (no constipation) to 16 (severe constipation). Higher scores indicate greater constipation severity and a worse outcome. |
| Primary | Change in caregiver burden measured by the Zarit Burden Interview | Baseline (Day 0), Day 7, and Day 14 | The Zarit Burden Interview consists of 22 items, each scored from 0 to 4. The total score is calculated by summing all item scores and ranges from 0 to 88. Higher scores indicate greater caregiver burden and a worse outcome, whereas lower scores indicate less caregiver burden and a better outcome. |
| Primary | Change in caregiver self-efficacy measured by the Caregiver Self-Efficacy in Contributing to Patient Self-Care Scale (CSE-CSC) | Baseline (Day 0), Day 7, and Day 14 | The Caregiver Self-Efficacy in Contributing to Patient Self-Care Scale consists of 10 items, each rated from 1 (not confident at all) to 5 (very confident). Total scores are standardized to range from 0 to 100. Higher scores indicate greater caregiver self-efficacy in contributing to patient self-care and a better outcome. |
| Secondary | Change in stool form assessed using the Bristol Stool Form Scale (BSFS) | Baseline (Day 0), Day 7, and Day 14 | The Bristol Stool Form Scale (BSFS) classifies stools into seven types according to their appearance and consistency, ranging from Type 1 (separate hard lumps) to Type 7 (entirely liquid stool). Types 1 and 2 indicate constipation-associated stool forms, Types 3 and 4 indicate normal stool forms, and Types 5 to 7 indicate increasingly loose stool forms. Higher type numbers indicate looser stools rather than a uniformly better or worse outcome; Types 3 and 4 represent the desired stool forms. The scale does not yield a summed total score. |
