NCT01307020

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of Dexketoprofen Trometamol and Tramadol Hydrochloride given in combinations and the analgesic efficacy of each single component in comparison to placebo on moderate to severe pain following impacted third mandibular molar tooth extraction. Ibuprofen will be used as an active control to validate the pain model.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percentage of Patients Achieving at Least 50 % of the Theoretical Maximum Total Pain Relief Score at 6 Hours Post-dosing.

    Pain relief is measured by a verbal rating scale (ranging from 0=none to 4=complete). Theoretical maximum TOTPAR at 6 hours is calculated by summing up the maximum score of analgesia which the patient can attribute at defined time points along 6 hour (maxTOTPAR6h= 24). Unit of measure is %

    6 hours

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Percentage of Patients Achieving at Least 50 % of the Theoretical Maximum Total Pain Relief Score at 4, 8 and 12 Hours Post-dosing.

    4, 8 and 12 hours

  • Percentage of Patients Using Rescue Medication at 6 Hours
