E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Reduction of discomfort for the patient during upper gastrointestinal endoscopy with administration of bupivacain lozenge compared to lidocaine spray.

- 4-point scale (no discomfort, easy discomfort, moderate discomfort and difficult discomfort) |

Patienten vurderer svælgreflekser og ubehag ved:
- Visuel Analog Skala (VAS) 0-10, hvor 0 = intet ubehag og 10 = ekstremt ubehag.
- 4 punktsskala (intet ubehag, let ubehag, moderat ubehag og svær ubehag) |
