Trial Outcomes & Findings for Randomized DB Controlled Trial of Botulinum Toxin A in Hemiplegic Shoulder Pain and Spasticity (NCT NCT00661089)

NCT ID: NCT00661089

Last Updated: 2020-11-13

Results Overview

Change scores from patient ratings on the Visual Analogue Scale on 101 mm scale for worst pain, averaged over a week. Ratings performed at baseline and week four. Scale range 0-100 mm. Minimum value 0= No pain, Maximum value 100= worst pain Higher score indicates worse outcome
