Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of a triple combination of ibuprofen, magnesium and ascorbic acid (vitamin C) in the treatment of acute pain in TMD compared to placebo.;Secondary Objective: - To explore the efficacy of a triple combination of ibuprofen, magnesium and ascorbic acid (vitamin C) in improving the functionality of the jaw in the temporomandibular disorders (TTMs) compared to placebo. - To explore the efficacy of magnesium and vitamin C in the treatment of acute pain in the temporomandibular (TTMs) disorders compared to placebo. - To explore the effectiveness of magnesium and vitamin C in improving the functionality of the jaw in the temporomandibular (TTMs) disorders compared to placebo.;Primary end point(s): Change in pain severity from baseline and compared to placebo for the triple combination of ibuprofen, magnesium and vitamin C after the 7 days of treatment. Pimary safety end points were based on a comparison of the number, severity and causality of adverse events (AEs) between treatment groups.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: After the 7 days of treatment. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Specified above.;Secondary end point(s): • Change in pain intensity from baseline and compared to placebo for the triple combination of ibuprofen, magnesium and vitamin C at 3 days of treatment. • Change in pain intensity from baseline of the triple combination of ibuprofen, magnesium and vitamin C compared to the other three comparators treatments at 3 and 7 days of treatment. • Time to onset of pain relief stable (= 0.5 measured as a reduction in VAS verified points in at least two consecutive assessments and consistent). • Percentage of patients with baseline pain reduction of 10%, 20% and 30% (yes / no), after 3 days of treatment, • Percentage of patients with baseline pain reduction of 10%, 20% and 30% (yes / no), after 7 days of treatment. • Consumption of rescue medication and time to first use of rescue medication for pain . • Evolution in the questionnaire responses RDC / TMD (a clinical examination parameters) collected at baseline, 72 ± 24 h at the final visit at 7 days, comparing the combined treatment group and the placebo two other treatments. The variables in this section will be analyzed in detail are: - Unassisted mandibular opening painless (range of vertical movement) - Joint Sounds - Lateral movements and protrusion - Tenderness of extraoral muscles: temporal - Tenderness of extraoral muscles: masseter - Joint pain on palpation: lateral pole (external) - Joint pain on palpation: Back insert (ear canal) - Tenderness of intraoral muscles: lateral pterygoid (top retromolar area) - Tenderness of intraoral muscles: temporal tendon | — |
