Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Non Inferiority48 HoursTo demonstrate the non inferiority of Xartemis 15mg/650mg by mouth every 12 hours for the management of acute post operative pain when compared to generic Oxycodone/APAP (acetaminophen) 10mg/650mg by mouth every 6 hours. The statistical comparison of interest will be the patient global assessment of analgesic effect administered at 48 hours after treatment initiation.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Patient Global Assessment120 HoursTo assess patient global assessments at 120 hours after treatment initiation for Xartemis 15mg/650mg by mouth every 12 hours compared to generic Oxycodone/APAP (acetaminophen) 10mg/650mg by mouth every 6 hours.

Other

MeasureTime frameDescription
Healthcare Professional Global Assessment48 HoursTo assess healthcare professional global assessments at 48 hours and 120 hours after treatment initiation for Xartemis 15mg/650mg by mouth every 12 hours compared to generic Oxycodone/APAP (acetaminophen) 10mg/650mg by mouth every 6 hours.
