Official title: Multiple Areas of Pain (MAP): Epidemiology of Multisite Pain in the Chronic Pain Population

What is being measured

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

  1. Multi-site Pain Index

    Multiple Site Pain Index (MSPI) was developed by collating multiple pain descriptors into a single index. Pain descriptors used for developing this index were percent body area in pain, number of painful areas, span of painful areas, and Regional Pain Ratings (RPRs) which includes data on pain severity and pain continuity for 47 body regions.

    MSPI score ranged from 0 to 1; 0 representing no pain and 1 representing extreme continuous pain over entire body, except the head and face regions.

    Measured: single-visit

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Pain, run by Boston Scientific Corporation at 15 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Nov 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 15 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 30 Dec 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Multi-site Pain Index (time frame: single-visit). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 25 Nov 2020.
