Trial Outcomes & Findings for Study to Evaluate Two Formulations of Carisoprodol in Subjects With Musculoskeletal Spasm of the Lower Back (NCT NCT00671879)

NCT ID: NCT00671879

Last Updated: 2012-11-21

Results Overview

on a visual analog scale of 0 to 100 millimeters(mm) with 0 being no pain and 100 being maximum pain By measuring the amount of pain before and during treatment done at each visit and recording the difference in mm.During treatment scores were averaged and this average was compared to the baseline value.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: baseline and day +14

Population: Intent to Treat(ITT) population

Subject functional assessment based on the Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ)at day 14.Subjects were asked to read a list of 24 sentences that people have used to describe themselves when they had back pain, and were asked to mark those statements that described their condition that day. The number of marked statements was added. A decrease in the number of marked statements from baseline represented improvement on the RMDQ.
