简要总结
Demulcent or soothing substance is the currently recommended option to alleviate throat irritation associated to cough and sore throat in children under 6 years. The intended benefit to the patient of Petit Drill is to calm throat irritation (sore throat) associated to dry cough in infants starting at 6 months of age and in children up to 6 years of age. This intended benefit sustained by the properties of the formula is recognized and promoted by the World Health Organization, health authorities and current textbooks to have a positive impact on patient management for the targeted population (infant / child).
This study aimed at assessing the performance of the syrup in real-life context, in children presenting throat irritation associated with dry cough to support the conclusion of clinical evaluation report.
详细描述
Pediatric patients were recruited by pharmacist in community settings, who briefly presented the clinical investigation to the parent who purchases Petit Drill for his/her child.
The pharmacist provided the interested parent with the study information note and transferred the parent's name and contact details to the clinical investigation centre. The parent was then contacted to take part in the remote inclusion visit with a site investigator, scheduled on the same day of Petit Drill delivery. During the inclusion visit, once consent has been signed, the investigator verified eligibility criteria, and collected baseline data.
The follow-up periods lasted as long as the child received the syrup, but it should not exceed 3 days and 3 nights. The parent completed daily questionnaires and recorded the child's syrup intake in a secure mobile application designed for patient reported outcomes (PROs).
Of note, due to the premature discontinuation of the study, all statistical analyses initially planned in the Statistical Analysis Plan (SAP) were not conducted. All study outcomes were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Therefore, results presented hereafter are limited to few study outcomes.

时间窗: up to 3 days
Percentage of children with a 3 point-decrease (minimal clinical significance) of the Pediatric Cough Questionnaire (PCQ) total score from baseline after up to 3 day-treatment with Petit Drill. PCQ refers to a past night recall of 5 questions, each scored from 0 "Not at all" to 5 "Extremely" using a 6-point Likert scale. PCQ Total score consists of the sum of each score and ranges from 0 to 25.
