A Clinical Evidence Study Evaluating Quality of Life Parameters Following Treatment With Robitussin

The WURSS was an evaluative illness-specific quality of life instrument, designed to assess the negative impact of acute upper respiratory infection, presumed viral (the common cold). WURSS-21 was the short version of this validated survey. Participants rated their cold symptoms (10 questions) and Quality of Life (QoL) related 9 questions using WURSS-21. The responses were evaluated on a scale ranging from 0 to 7, where 0=Do not have symptoms/Not at all and 7=Severe symptoms/Severely. Thus, the minimum and maximum possible total scores were 0 and 133 respectively, where higher total scores indicated more negative impact on symptoms and quality of life. Change from Baseline was calculated as each post-Baseline value minus Baseline value. EOT was defined as the day when the participant ceased study involvement because they no longer required relief from their cough/cold symptoms or the participant reached Day 7 (Or their last available questionnaire information).

WURSS-21 was the short version of this validated survey. The individual symptoms included runny nose, plugged nose, sneezing, sore throat, scratchy throat, cough, hoarseness, head congestion, chest congestion and feeling tired. Participants rated each of the 10 individual symptom domain questions and the responses were evaluated on a scale ranging from 0 to 7, where 0=Do not have symptom and 7=Severe. Thus, the minimum and maximum score for each symptom domain question was 0 and 7, where higher scores indicated more negative impact on symptoms. Baseline was defined as Day 0.

The QoL factors were categorized into 4 categories - Sleep quality, Vitality, Physical activity and Social activity. Sleep quality category included 3 individual questions - Sleep well (WURSS-21: Question 13), Falling asleep (QoL: Question 4) and Sleep through the night (QoL: Question 5). Participants rated each question, and the responses were evaluated on a scale ranging from 0 to 7, where 0=Not at all and 7=Severely. The individual question score was added to derive categorized QoL score. Thus, the minimum and maximum possible total scores was 0 and 21 respectively, where higher scores indicated more negative impact on QoL. Baseline was defined as Day 0.

Change from Baseline was calculated as each post-Baseline value minus Baseline value.

The QoL factors were categorized into 4 categories - Sleep quality, Vitality, Physical activity and Social activity. Social Activities were assessed using 4 individual questions - Interact with others (WURSS-21: Question 19), Less comfortable in social activities (QoL: Question 1), Self-conscious around others (QoL: Question 2) and Coughing in public (QoL: Question 3). Participants rated each question and the responses were evaluated on a scale ranging from 0 to 7, where 0=Not at all and 7=Severely.
