PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 5 minutes after stopped exercise, performed 1 hour after intervention (patch application)

Population: Of the 40 subjects 2 were lost to follow-up, one from each group, making a total of 38 participants included in the analysis. Unfortunately, NRS data at 5 minutes post-exercise is missing for 2 subjects in the Synera treatment group and 1 subject in the Placebo group due to technical errors. The data was captured but we were unable to retrieve it.

Subject rated index knee pain 5 minutes after stopped experimental exercise (with intervention). Index knee pain was reported using the Numeric Rating Scale, a scale from 0 to 10 where 0 = no pain and 10 = the worst pain possible.
