P4 (Pregabalin for Peripheral Posttraumatic Pain)

Daily Pain Diary scale : mean score from 11-point numerical scale of pain; range: 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). Endpoint weekly mean pain score: mean of the last 7 available pain scores from a daily pain diary during double blind treatment.

Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale Anxiety Score (HADS-A) consists of 7 items that are assessed by a score of 0 = no anxiety to 3 = severe feeling of anxiety. The anxiety subscale determines a state of generalized anxiety (including anxious mood, restlessness, anxious thoughts, panic attacks). Score range = 0 to 21; higher scores indicate a greater intensity of anxiety

Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale Depression Score (HADS-D) consists of 7 items that are assessed by a score of 0 = no depression to 3 = severe feeling of depression. The depression subscale focuses on the state of lost interest and diminished pleasure response ("lowering of hedonic tone"). Score range = 0 to 21; higher scores indicate a greater intensity of depression

Daily Pain Diary scale : mean score from 11-point numerical scale of pain; range:0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). Mean of scores available for each week.

Based on weekly mean daily pain rating score (DPRS), responders were defined as subjects with a >= 30% and >=50% reduction in weekly mean scores from baseline until endpoint (Week 8). Endpoint was calculated as the mean of the last 7 available pain scores from the daily pain diary while in the double-blind treatment phase.

11-point numerical scale with which the patient describes pain interference with sleep over past 24 hours; range: 0 (pain does not interfere with sleep) to 10 (pain completely interferes with sleep). Endpoint weekly mean score: mean of last 7 available scores from daily sleep interference diary during double-blind treatment.

Medical Outcome Study (MOS) is a patient-rated questionnaire consisting of 12 items that assess key constructs of sleep (7 subscales as well as a 9-item overall sleep problems index. MOS-Sleep Scale is scored from 0 to 100. A higher score indicates more disturbance.

Number of subjects responding to have had optimal sleep. Optimal sleep is 1 item in the Medical Outcome Study (MOS)sleep scale, a patient-reported measure consisting of twelve items that assess the key constructs of sleep. Subjects were asked to recall sleep-related activities over the past week.

Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC): a patient-rated instrument that measures change in patient's overall status on a 7-point scale; range: 1 Very Much Improved to 7 Very Much Worse.

Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGIC): clinician's judgment of overall change in the patient's condition over a defined period on a 7-point scale; range: 1 Very Much Improved to 7 Very Much Worse.

Pain Treatment Satisfaction Scale (PTSS); Impact of Current Pain Medication: measure of patient satisfaction with treatment for acute or chronic pain. Response range: 1 (strongly agree) to 5 (strongly disagree). Mean scores were calculated and transformed onto a scale of 0-100, range: 0 = worst possible satisfaction to 100 = best possible satisfaction with pain treatment.

Pain Treatment Satisfaction Scale (PTSS); Satisfaction with Current Pain Medication: measure of patient satisfaction with treatment for acute or chronic pain. Response range:1 (strongly agree) to 5 (strongly disagree). Mean scores were calculated and transformed onto a scale of 0-100, range: 0 = worst possible satisfaction to 100 = best possible satisfaction with pain treatment.

Pain Treatment Satisfaction Scale (PTSS); Medication Characteristics: measure of patient satisfaction with treatment for acute or chronic pain. Response range: 1 (strongly agree) to 5 (strongly disagree). Mean scores were calculated and transformed onto a scale of 0-100, range: 0 = worst possible satisfaction to 100 = best possible satisfaction with pain treatment.

Pain Treatment Satisfaction Scale (PTSS); Efficacy: measure of patient satisfaction with treatment for acute or chronic pain. Response range: 1 (strongly agree) to 5 (strongly disagree). Mean scores were calculated and transformed onto a scale of 0-100, range: 0 = worst possible satisfaction to 100 = best possible satisfaction with pain treatment.

Modified Brief Pain Inventory Short Form (m-BPI-sf): self-administered questionnaire to assess severity of pain (measured by 4 items)and impact of pain on daily functions (measured by 7 items)in past 24 hours. Items are rated on an 11-point scale ranging from 0 to 10, with higher scores indicating greater pain and/or interference due to pain.

Neuropathic Pain Symptom Inventory (NPSI) includes 10 descriptors (scale 0-10) of different pain symptoms & 2 temporal items assessing the duration of spontaneous ongoing and paroxysmal pain. A total intensity score is calculated by sub grouping the questions into five pain dimensions, summing the five sub groups, and converting into a percentage.

The number of subjects' responses to each of the 6 questions on the Medical Outcome Study Cognitive (MOS-Cog) subscale were summarized at baseline and Week 8. Category range: all of the time to none of the time. No formal statistical modeling was used.
