  1. The Efficacy of Buprenorphine in addition to Local Anesthetic in Providing Prolonged Postoperative Endodontic Analgesia

    The number of patients with extended postoperative analgesia when compared to the baseline in pain scores on a visual analog scale during a three-day period will be analyzed. A questionnaire containing a visual analog scale and a log for recording the use of rescue analgesics will be used to gather the data.

    Measured: two years

What does this phase mean?

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

The study was stopped early (reason given: Loss of interest). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

The Efficacy of Buprenorphine in addition to Local Anesthetic in Providing Prolonged Postoperative Endodontic Analgesia (time frame: two years). 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.
