Read the detailed description

The purpose of this observational study is to give an overview of the use of PASCONAL NERVENTROPFEN in a 2-4 week treatment of nervous diseases, especially sleep disorders due to nervousness.

Efficacy and tolerability of the drug will be assessed. Special regard will be taken to the administration management, dose regimen, and to the effectiveness and safety in special patient groups (children 1-12 years of age), in relation to treatment conformity to the Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Sumscore of 12 Individual Symptoms for Visit 1 (Baseline), Visit 2, and Visit 3

    The severity of 12 symptoms (nervousness/restlessness, irritability/eccentricity, sleep disorders, fitful sleep, hyperactivity, nocturnal activity, lack of concentration/forgetfulness, tiredness, discontent, listlessness, gastrointestinal problems, and headache/pressure) was graded on a four-point scale from 0 (no complaints) to 3 (strong complaints) and for the sum score of all 12 individual symptom scores (0 (no complaints) - 36 (all strong complaints).

    Measured: begin (visit 1), appr. after 2 weeks (visit 2), and appr. after 4 weeks (visit 3)

  2. Nervousness/Restlessness for Visit 1 (Baseline), Visit 2, Visit 3 and Last Obsevation

    The severity of nervousness/restlessness was graded on a four-point scale from 0 (no complaints) to 3 (strong complaints).

    Measured: begin (visit 1), appr. after 2 weeks (visit 2), and appr. after 4 weeks (visit 3)

  3. Irritability/Eccentricity for Visit 1 (Baseline), Visit 2, Visit 3 and Last Observation

    The severity of irritability/eccentricity was graded on a four-point scale from 0 (no complaints) to 3 (strong complaints).

    Measured: begin (visit 1), appr. after 2 weeks (visit 2), and appr. after 4 weeks (visit 3)

  4. Tolerability After Visit 2 and Visit 3

    Assessment of tolerability at visit 2 and visit 3 well tolerated = no side effcts poor tolerated = side effects

    Measured: appr. after 2 weeks (visit 2), and appr. after 4 weeks (visit 3)

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Changes of the Sum Score Between Baseline and Last Observation by Concomitant Medication and Treatment Duration

    The severity of 12 symptoms (nervousness/restlessness, irritability/eccentricity, sleep disorders, fitful sleep, hyperactivity, nocturnal activity, lack of concentration/forgetfulness, tiredness, discontent, listlessness, gastrointestinal problems, and headache/pressure) was graded on a four-point scale from 0 (no complaints) to 3 (strong complaints) and for the sum score of all 12 individual symptom scores (0 (no complaints) - 36 (all strong complaints).

    Decrease of the sumscore between baseline and last observation by concomitant medication (with and withour medication) and treatment duration (< 4 weeks and >= 4 weeks)

    Measured: begin (visit 1) and last obvservation (could be appr. after 2 weeks (visit 2) or 4 weeks (visit 3))

  2. Direction of Change of Symptom Nervousness/Restlessnes Between Baseline and Last Observation by Concomitant Medication

    The symptom nervousness/restlessnesswas analysed with respect to the direction of change between baseline (Visit 1) and the last documented visit (Visit 2 or Visit 3) by means of the categories "improved", "unchanged" and "worsened". For each symptom patients were included in the analysis only if the symptom had been present at Visit 1 (i.e. the baseline score value was > 0).

    Measured: begin (visit 1) and last observation (could be appr. after 2 weeks (visit 2) or appr. after 4 weeks (visit 3))

  3. Direction of Change of Symptom Nervousness/Restlessnes Between Baseline and Last Observation by Duration of Treatment

    The symptom nervousness/restlessness was analysed with respect to the direction of change between baseline (Visit 1) and the last documented visit (Visit 2 or Visit 3) by means of the categories "improved", "unchanged" and "worsened". For each symptom patients were included in the analysis only if the symptom had been present at Visit 1 (i.e. the baseline score value was > 0).

    Measured: begin (visit 1) and last observation (could be appr. after 2 weeks (visit 2) or appr. after 4 weeks (visit 3))

  4. Direction of Change of Symptom Irritability/Eccentricity Between Baseline and Last Observation by Concomitant Medication

    The symptom irritability/eccentricity was analysed with respect to the direction of change between baseline (Visit 1) and the last documented visit (Visit 2 or Visit 3) by means of the categories "improved", "unchanged" and "worsened". For each symptom patients were included in the analysis only if the symptom had been present at Visit 1 (i.e. the baseline score value was > 0).

    Measured: begin (visit 1) and last observation (could be appr. after 2 weeks (visit 2) or appr. after 4 weeks (visit 3))

  5. Direction of Change of Symptom Irritability/Eccentricity Between Baseline and Last Observation by Duration of Treatment

    The symptom irritability/eccentricity was analysed with respect to the direction of change between baseline (Visit 1) and the last documented visit (Visit 2 or Visit 3) by means of the categories "improved", "unchanged" and "worsened". For each symptom patients were included in the analysis only if the symptom had been present at Visit 1 (i.e. the baseline score value was > 0).

    Measured: begin (visit 1) and last observation (appr. after 2 weeks (visit 2) or appr. after 4 weeks (visit 3))

  6. Efficacy Rating for PASCONAL® NERVENTROPFEN (Last Value) Compared to Previous Therapy by Concomitant Medication (Yes/no)

    Efficacy of the therapy with PASCONAL® NERVENTROPFEN was rated by the physician on a 4-point rating scale at Visit 2 and Visit 3. The same scale was applied at Visit 1 for evaluation of the efficacy of the previous medication.

    The last evaluation for PASCONAL® NERVENTROPFEN (Visit 2 or Visit 3, according to the LOCF principle) was compared with the rating for the previous therapy by means of the categories "PASCONAL® better", "No difference" and "PASCONAL® worse".

    Measured: appr. after 2 weeks (visit 2) and appr. after 4 weeks (visit 3)

  7. Efficacy Rating for PASCONAL® NERVENTROPFEN (Last Value) Compared to Previous Therapy by Treatment Duration

    Efficacy of the therapy with PASCONAL® NERVENTROPFEN was rated by the physician on a 4-point rating scale at Visit 2 and Visit 3. The same scale was applied at Visit 1 for evaluation of the efficacy of the previous medication.

    The last evaluation for PASCONAL® NERVENTROPFEN (Visit 2 or Visit 3, according to the LOCF principle) was compared with the rating for the previous therapy by means of the categories "PASCONAL® better", "No difference" and "PASCONAL® worse".

    Measured: appr. after 2 weeks (visit 2) and appr. after 4 weeks (visit 3)

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Apr 2015.
