Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Foot Pain Score | 3 Months | The visual analog scale (VAS) is a patient questionnaire used to quantify a subjective experience, such as the intensity of pain. The scale is a 100mm line labeled with no pain on the left border and most intense pain imaginable on the right border. The subject is instructed to place a vertical line on the scale that indicates the pain severity experienced; 0mm is equal to no pain and 100mm is most intense pain imaginable. Study staff records the distance of the patient's mark on the scale in millimeters. |
| Serious Adverse Events | 12 Months | The occurrence of serious adverse events that are related to the product. |
