Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Total Sleep Time Measured by ActigraphyUp to 10 hours

Actigraphy is a non-intrusive tool that measures an individual's movement during sleep. Actigraphy was used to obtain data in discriminating between sleep and wake states in the subjects. In calculating the total sleep time, subjects who took rescue medication were treated as "awake" from the time the rescue medication was given until the end of the sleep period. In addition, if subjects rescued before sleep onset, their total sleep time was set to zero.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Karolinska Sleep Diary - Easiness to Fall AsleepUp to 10 hours

Subject rating of following question with 1 being very difficult to 5 being very easy: How easy was it to fall asleep?

Global Assessment of Study Medication as a Sleep-aidUp to 10 hours

Subject rating of following question with 0 being poor to 4 being excellent: How would you rate the study medication you received as a sleep aid?

Karolinska Sleep Diary - Sleep QualityUp to 10 hours

Subject rating of following question with 1 being very poor and 5 being very good: How was your sleep?

Karolinska Sleep Diary - Calmness of SleepUp to 10 hours

Subject rating of following question with 1 being very restless and 5 being very calm: How calm was your sleep?

Karolinska Sleep Diary - Premature AwakeningUp to 10 hours

Subject rating of following question with 1 being woke up much too early to 3 being no: Premature awakening?

Wake After Sleep Onset (WASO) Measured by ActigraphyUp to 10 hours

Actigraphy is a non-intrusive tool that measures an individual's movement during sleep. Actigraphy was used to obtain data in discriminating between sleep and wake states in the subjects. WASO was defined as minutes of awake during the period of sleep onset and offset, where sleep onset is the first 20-minute block with 19 minutes of sleep.

Sleep Latency Measured by ActigraphyUp to 10 hours

Actigraphy is a non-intrusive tool that measures an individual's movement during sleep. Actigraphy was used to obtain data in discriminating between sleep and wake states in the subjects. Sleep latency was defined as minutes to sleep onset since dosing, where sleep onset was the first 20-minute block with 19 minutes of sleep. For subjects who had not achieved sleep onset (e.g., due to taking rescue medication before achieving sleep onset), sleep latency was considered as censored at the time of wakening.

Karolinska Sleep Diary - Ease of AwakeningUp to 10 hours

Subject rating of following question with 1 being very difficult to 5 being very easy: Ease of awakening?

Karolinska Sleep Diary - Well RestedUp to 10 hours

Subject rating of following question with 1 being not rested at all to 3 being completely rested: Well-rested?

Karolinska Sleep Diary - Sufficient SleepUp to 10 hours

Subject rating of following question with 1 being no, definitely too little to 5 being yes, definitely enough: Did you get enough (sufficient) sleep?

Total Sleep Time by Subject AssessmentUp to 10 hours

Subject responded to: Please estimate the number of hours and minutes you think that you slept.

Sleep Quality IndexUp to 10 hours

Sleep Quality Index is the mean score of items, 'sleep quality', 'calm sleep', 'ease falling asleep', and 'slept throughout' on the Karolinska Sleep Diary, ranges from 1 (worst possible) to 5 (best possible).

Overall Rating of Severity in Categorical Pain Rating Scale ScoreUp to 10 hours

Subject responded to question, 'My pain at this time is' by selecting one of the following choices: no pain (0), mild pain (1), moderate pain (2), or severe pain (3).

Change From Baseline in Categorical Pain Rating Scale ScoreBaseline and up to 10 hours

Subjects responded to question, 'My pain at this time is' with following choices: no pain (0), mild pain (1), moderate pain (2), or severe pain (3). Subjects completed this question at baseline (post-dental surgery) and after sleep period. The following measure is the change in pain rating from baseline.

Overall Rating of Severity in Visual Analog Scale (VAS) ScoreAt 10 hours

Subjects marked a line on a 100-mm scale to indicate the severity of pain they are experiencing from 0 being no pain to 100 being worse possible pain.

Change From Baseline in Visual Analog Scale (VAS) ScoreBaseline and up to 10 hours

Subjects completed the VAS scale at baseline (post-dental surgery) and after completion of the sleep period. Subjects marked a line on a 100-mm scale to indicate the severity of pain they are experiencing from 0 being no pain to 100 being worse possible pain.This measure indicates the change in pain severity rating on the VAS scale from baseline.

Overall Rating of Pain ReliefUp to 10 hours

Subjects responded to question, "Overall, the relief from my starting pain was" by checking one of the following choices: no relief (0), a little relief (1), some relief (2), a lot of relief (3), complete relief (4).

Time to Rescue MedicationUp to 10 hours

Subjects were allowed to "rescue" and take a non-study pain reliever if the pain was not tolerable. This measure represents for the time to taking rescue medication from the time the subject took study treatment.

Cumulative Proportion of Participants Taking Rescue Medication by HourUp to 10 hours

Subjects were allowed to "rescue" and take a non-study pain reliever if the pain was not tolerable. This measure represents for the proportion of subjects who rescued in the study.

Global Assessment of Study Medication as a Pain RelieverUp to 10 hours

Subject responded to question, 'How would you rating this study medication you received as a pain-reliever?' with the following choices: Poor (0), Fair(1), Good(2), Very Good(3), Excellent(4)

Number of Times Participants Took Rescue MedicationUp to 10 hours

Subjects were allowed to "rescue" and take a non-study pain reliever if the pain was not tolerable. This measure represents for the number of times rescue medication was taken by a subject.

Total Wake Time Measured by ActigraphyUp to 10 hours

Actigraphy is a non-intrusive tool that measures an individual's movement during sleep. Actigraphy was used to obtain data in discriminating between sleep and wake states in the subjects.

Sleep Efficiency Measured by ActigraphyUp to 10 hours

Sleep efficiency was calculated as (total sleep time/total time in-bed time) × 100; total in-bed time was fixed at 10 hours. Actigraphy is a non-intrusive tool that measures an individual's movement during sleep. Actigraphy was used to obtain data in discriminating between sleep and wake states in the subjects.

Activity Mean Measured by ActigraphyUp to 10 hours

Actigraphy is a non-intrusive tool that measures an individual's movement during sleep. Actigraphy was used to obtain data in discriminating between sleep and wake states in the subjects. Activity mean - average movement per minute.

Wake Episode Measured by ActigraphyUp to 10 hours

Actigraphy is a non-intrusive tool that measures an individual's movement during sleep. Actigraphy was used to obtain data in discriminating between sleep and wake states in the subjects. Wake Episodes - # of blocks of continuous wake epochs (defined as 2 or more consecutive epochs scored as wake that ends when there is at least one epoch scored as sleep subsequent to the start of the wake epochs).
