| NCT02356588 | A Trial Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of the Sublingual Sufentanil Tablet 30 mcg for Post-Operative Pain After Abdominal Surgery | PHASE3 | COMPLETED | 161 | — | — | Feb 1, 2015 | Aug 1, 2015 | Feb 13, 2017 | 4 | United States |
The primary outcome measure is the summed pain intensity difference to baseline over the 12-hour study period (SPID-12). A pain intensity score ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain) is obtained at baseline and throughout the 12 hour study period. The SPID-12 is calculated by summing the difference between baseline pain score and pain score at each assessment time point. The observed SPID-12 scores ranged from -42.15 to 71.87 in the active group and -34.96 to 64.37 in the placebo group. A negative score indicates an increase in pain intensity and a higher score indicates a greater decrease in pain intensity.
