Population: mITT; n = number of evaluable participants analyzed for the given time point; N=number of evaluable participants analyzed; Results presented for only those timepoints PS where at least 4 participants in each treatment arm completed the questionnaire at baseline and respective time point.

Participant sat upright from supine position, followed by 120 second (sec) rest period, during which participant asked to rate pain with movement. Assessment performed 3 times each day of hospital stay, with 1 daily assessment at 24 (+/- 2) hour interval from end of surgery. Current pain reported on 11 point Likert scale 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain imaginable). LS Means adjusted for treatment, pooled center and salpingo-oophorectomy strata.

The integrated analgesic score (a combination of opioid use and either worst pain, or pain at rest, or pain caused by sitting, or pain caused by forced expiration as defined by Silverman et al 1993) was the sum of percent differences from mean rank for pain and opioids and ranged from -200 to 200 where lower values represent improvement. LS Means adjusted for treatment, pooled center and salpingo-oophorectomy strata.

Participant rated questionnaire assessed current health for 6 domains: mobility/self-care/ usual activities/pain/discomfort/anxiety and depression. Scoring developed by EuroQol Group assigned a utility value for each domain in the profile. Scores ranged from 1 better health (no problems) to 3 worst health (eg, "confined to bed"). Score transformed and resulted in a total score range -0.594 to 1.000; higher score=better health state. Health profile scores estimated using Dolan computational algorithms 1997 and 2001. LS Means adjusted for treatment/pooled center/salpingo-oophorectomy strata.
