Change From Baseline in Patient Assessment of Constipation-Symptoms (PAC-SYM) Questionnaire

The PAC-SYM questionnaire is a 12-item questionnaire that evaluates the severity of symptoms of constipation in 3 domains (stool, rectal, and abdominal symptoms) on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (absent) to 4 (very severe) in the 2 weeks (14 days) prior to assessment. Each domain score is the mean of the non-missing items for that domain. The total score is the mean of all non-missing items (ie, symptoms). The range is 0 (response is 'absent' for each item) to 4 (response is 'very severe' for each item). A negative change from baseline indicates improvement. (NCT00600119)

Change From Baseline in Patient Assessment of Constipation-Quality of Life (PAC-QOL) Questionnaire

The PAC-QOL scale is a 28-item self-report instrument designed to evaluate the burden of constipation on patients' everyday functioning and well-being in the 2 weeks (14 days) prior to assessment. Each item is rated on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (not at all) to 4 (extremely).The instrument can be used to generate an overall score, but is also reported to assess 4 specific constipation-related domains including: 1) worries and concerns (11 items), 2) physical discomfort (4 items), 3) psychosocial discomfort (8 items), and 4) satisfaction (5 items). Each domain score is the mean of the non-missing items for that domain. The total score is the mean of all non-missing items. The range is 0 (response is 'not at all' for each item) to 4 (response is 'extremely' for each item). A negative change from baseline indicates improvement. (NCT00600119)

Change From Baseline in Patient Assessment of Constipation Quality of Life (PAC-QOL) Satisfaction Domain

The PAC-QOL scale is a 28-item self-report instrument designed to evaluate the burden of constipation on patients' everyday functioning and well-being in the 2 weeks (14 days) prior to assessment. Each item is rated on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (not at all) to 4 (extremely). The instrument can be used to generate an overall score, but is also reported to assess 4 specific constipation-related domains including: 1) Worries and concerns (11 items), 2) Physical discomfort (4 items), 3) Psychosocial discomfort (8 items), and 4) Satisfaction (5 items). Each domain score is the mean of the non-missing items for that domain. The total score is the mean of all non-missing items. The range of the domain or total score is 0 (response is 'not at all' for each item) to 4 (response is 'extremely' for each item). A negative change from baseline indicates improvement. (NCT01309841)

Taste Test Assessment.

"A standardized questionnaire was provided to participants and were asked to complete the questionnaire for the liquid formulations tested, i.e., Naloxegol crushed tablet, oral (Treatment A) and Naloxegol oral solution (Treatment C), without assistance or influence from site personnel. For each formulation, the questionnaire was identical and required the participant's opinion. Sweet, salty, sour, bitter, metallic, hot/spicy were rated on a scale of 0 to 10, where 0 means not at all and 10 means extreme. The overall rating of the taste was rated on a scale of 0 to 10, where 0 means I dislike it extremely much and 10 means I like it extremely much. The smell of the medicine was based on a scale of 0 to 10, where 0 means extremely bad and 10 means extremely nice. The question on whether the participants would consider ever taking the medicine again was based on a scale of 0 to 10, where 0 means Never - under no circumstances and 10 means Yes, definitely."

Patient Reported Influence of Each Medication Characteristic Median Scores That Contributed to Their Overall Preference for Movantik or PEG 3350

"In order to assess the reason for patient preference of Movantik or PEG 3350, subjects reported on the influence of 5 medication characteristics using a 4-point rating scale. The following were the scale options: efficacy ('worked better to relieve my OIC'), tolerability ('tolerated better'), convenience ('was more convenient'), works quickly ('worked quickly') and works predictably ('worked predictably'). For each characteristic, influence scores were rated as: 0 = No influence, 1 = Mildly influenced, 2 = Moderately influenced or 3 = Strongly influenced. The scale range for each characteristic was from 0 to 3, and the median score for each characteristic is presented for the overall PP Set according to which treatment was preferred.~The assessment was only completed by subjects who indicated an overall preference." (NCT03060512)
Timeframe: From Visit 2 (Day 1) of Treatment Period 1 to Visit 5 (Day 36) of Treatment Period 2 (end of study).
