Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Change in mean pain intensity over 20 min from start of administration (STA) and time to first pain relief; Secondary Objective: - Analgesic efectiveness - Speed of action of analgesia (from randomisation (R) to STA) - Preparation + administration time and complexity - Safety - Cost - Investigator and patients satisfaction - Patient and investigators fulfillement of expectations - Patients Global impression of change - Request of rescue medication - Treatment cost per pain relief by time unit - Time from R and STA to pain relief - Number of patients achieving pain intensity NRS0-10= 20 min - Request of rescue medication - Safety: rates of Adverse Events ;Primary end point(s): - Pain Intensity measure by Numeric Scale (0-10);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At 0, 3, 5, 10, 15 and 20 minutes after medicine administration and at discharge time

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): - Investigator and patients satisfaction measured as convenience, treatment efficacy and adverse event - Patients and investigators' fulfillment of expectation: - Patients' Globlal impression of change. - Rescue Medication - Adverse Events during the study - Total time required in the treatment, as well as the fungible materials used and their cost. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At 0, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 minutes after medicine administration, at hopital discharge and 14 days (+/2) after hospital discharge (this last time only for safety data)
