Trial Outcomes & Findings for Effectiveness of Celecoxib After Surgical Sperm Retrieval (NCT NCT01323595)

NCT ID: NCT01323595

Last Updated: 2018-10-02

Results Overview

Patients will rate their pain for 7 days after surgery using an 11-point visual analog scale, ranging from 0 to 10, in which 0= no pain, 10=worst pain ever. Patients are asked to rate their pain up to four times a day during the post-operative period. Pain scores from each post-operative day each day will be averaged and reported as the pain score for that day.
