Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• PNRS

  Pain Numeric Rating Scale (PNRS) scores in subjects with moderate/severe pain at baseline. \*P \< 0.0001 vs. baseline. Includes only subjects with baseline PNRS score of 4 to 10. Scale ranges from 0 to 10. Data are shown as mean ± 95% confidence interval. n = 329 for all visits, all with a baseline PNRS score of 4 to 10.

• OSWESTRY DISABILITY INDEX

  Each section is scored on a 0-5 scale, 5 representing the greatest disability. The index is calculated by dividing the summed score by the total possible score, which is then multiplied by 100 and expressed as a percentage. Thus, for every question not answered, the denominator is reduced by 5
