Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The amount of pain after injection. Timepoint: Immediately after injection. Method of measurement: Using a numerical rating scale (NRS 0-10), the pain level is evaluated. This scale has points from 0 to 10 and the patient is asked to specify the level of pain in the index [61]. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Blood pressure. Timepoint: Before, during and after injection. Method of measurement: When the patient sits on the dental chair, we wait 10 minutes until the patient's heart rate, blood pressure, and respiratory rate return to normal. Then the vital sign device (CMS 6000 brand made in China) is connected to the patient to measure heart rate, blood pressure and respiratory rate and the patient is monitored. For adults, normal blood pressure is defined as 120/80 (mmHg). After the patient is connected to the vital sign measuring device, blood pressure is recorded before the injection. Then once during the injection and finally immediately after the injection blood pressure is recorded and compared with the initial level.;Heart beat. Timepoint: Before, during and after injection. Method of measurement: When the patient sits on the dental chair, we wait 10 minutes until the patient's heart rate, blood pressure, and respiratory rate return to normal. Then the vital sign device (CMS 6000 brand made in China) is connected to the patient to measure heart rate, blood pressure and respiratory rate and the patient is monitored. For adults, a normal heart rate is defined as 80 to 100 beats per minute (bpm). After the patient is connected to the vital sign measuring device, the heart rate is recorded before the injection. Then, once during the injection and finally immediately after the injection, the heart rate is recorded and compared with the initial rate.;Respiratory rate. Timepoint: Before, during and after injection. Method of measurement: When the patient sits on the dental chair, we wait 10 minutes until the patient's heart rate, blood pressure, and respiratory rate return to normal. Then the vital sign device (CMS 6000 brand made in China) is connected to the patient to measure heart rate, blood pressure and respiratory rate and the patient is monitored. For adults, normal breathing is defined as 12 to 20 breaths per minute. After the patient is connected to the vital si | — |
