| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Proportion of patients with inadequate pain control within 24 hours after discharge | First 24 hours after discharge from the emergency department | Inadequate pain control is defined as a maximum patient-reported pain intensity of 4 or above on the numerical rating scale (0-10, where 0 is no pain and 10 is the worst imaginable pain) during the first 24 hours after discharge. It is derived from the worst pain intensity reported in the day 1 entry of the pain diary. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Secondary | Mean pain intensity during the 7-day follow-up | 7 days after discharge | Mean of the daily pain intensity reported in the pain diary on the numerical rating scale (0-10). | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Secondary | Number of pain-related healthcare contacts | 7 days after discharge | Number of contacts with general practitioners, out-of-hours doctors or the emergency department because of pain, reported in the diary and the follow-up interview. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Secondary | Number of patients with sleep disturbance due to pain | 7 days after discharge | Number of patients reporting awakenings due to pain in the pain diary. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Secondary | Sleep during the follow-up period | Daily for 7 days after discharge | Daily hours of sleep and sleep compared to normal, reported in the pain diary. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Secondary | Number of patients discharged with a documented post-discharge pain management plan | Day 0 (at emergency department discharge) | Number and proportion of patients with a documented pain management plan in the patient record at discharge. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Secondary | Number and proportion of patients with analgesic side effects | 7 days after discharge (diary) and at the follow-up interview, 7-14 days after discharge | Side effects reported in the pain diary and the follow-up interview. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Secondary | Patient satisfaction with the pain management plan | At the follow-up interview, 7-14 days after discharge | Rated on a 5-point verbal rating scale: not at all, to a small extent, to some extent, to a high extent, to a very high extent. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Secondary | Mean pain intensity during the first 24 hours after discharge | First 24 hours after discharge | Mean pain intensity on the numerical rating scale (0-10) reported in the day 1 pain diary entry. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Other | Number of patients discharged with prescribed opioids | Day 0 (at emergency department discharge) | Number and proportion of patients prescribed an opioid analgesic at discharge from the emergency department, based on the patient record and confirmed at the follow-up interview. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Other | Analgesic use | 7 days after discharge | Type, dose and timing of analgesics taken, reported in the pain diary. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Other | Amount of unused prescribed analgesics with potential for abuse or dependence | At the follow-up interview, 7-14 days after discharge | Amount of strongly addictive pain medication (such as opioids) that was prescribed at discharge but remains unused at follow-up, reported by the patient in the follow-up interview. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
