What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Pain Intensity for Overall Pain From Pre-treatment Baseline

    The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) is self-administered instrument assessing average pain intensity. Subjects rated their pain on a horizontal line, 10 cm in length, anchored by word descriptors on each end (no pain to worst imaginable pain). A higher score indicates a higher pain level. The values range from 0 (minimum pain) to 10 (maximum pain).

    Measured: Baseline, 3, 6, 12 and 24-Month Visits

  2. Percentage of Subjects With at Least 50% Pain Reduction

    Percent of subjects with at least a 50% reduction. The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) is self-administered instrument assessing average pain intensity. Subjects rated their pain on a horizontal line, 10 cm in length, anchored by word descriptors on each end (no pain to worst imaginable pain). A higher score indicates a higher pain level. The values range from 0 (minimum) to 10 (maximum).

    Measured: 3, 6, 12 and 24-Month Visits

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Post Surgical Pain, run by Abbott Medical Devices at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 8 inclusion and 12 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Apr 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Netherlands. 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 29 Apr 2019). 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?

Change in Pain Intensity for Overall Pain From Pre-treatment Baseline (time frame: Baseline, 3, 6, 12 and 24-Month Visits). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 29 Apr 2019.
