carbamazepine and Injuries, Multiple

carbamazepine has been researched along with Injuries, Multiple in 2 studies

Carbamazepine: A dibenzazepine that acts as a sodium channel blocker. It is used as an anticonvulsant for the treatment of grand mal and psychomotor or focal SEIZURES. It may also be used in the management of BIPOLAR DISORDER, and has analgesic properties.
carbamazepine : A dibenzoazepine that is 5H-dibenzo[b,f]azepine carrying a carbamoyl substituent at the azepine nitrogen, used as an anticonvulsant.

Trial Outcomes

Clinicians Global Impression of Change

Study physician's impression of change since study onset. Clinicians Global Impressions of Change (CGI) is a sensitive, standardized tool to assess psychopharmacologic treatment response completed by the study physician. The Global Improvement (GI) CGI subscale documented the clinician's impression of change. The GI uses a 7-point scale to assess beneficial and negative effects. Low GI values (1 -3) indicate improvement; higher values (4-7) represent worsening. (NCT00621751)
Timeframe: 42 days

Interventionunits on a scale (Mean)
Carbamazepine3.1
Placebo2.9

Global Impression of Change -- Observer

Global Impression of Change (GIC) is a 5-item Likert Scale rated participants and observer impression of change in the person with TBI. Responses range 1 = much improved to 5 = much worse. (NCT00621751)
Timeframe: 42 days

Global Impression of Change -- Participant

Global Impression of Change (GIC) is a 5-item Likert Scale rated participants and observer impression of change in the person with TBI. Responses range 1 = much improved to 5 = much worse. (NCT00621751)

Neuropsychiatric Inventory Irritability-Aggression Domains Composite Measure -- Observer

Neuropsychiatry Inventory-Irritability (NPI-I) & Aggression domains (NPI-A): NPI is a 40-item assessment of 12 behavioral domains (NPI-I & NPI-A domains used in this study). The most problematic aspect of each domain is graded for severity (1=mild, to 3=severe) and frequency (1-4 with 4 representing highest frequency); the domain scores (0-12) are the product of severity and frequency. To best reflect treatment target intent and meet parametric statistical method criteria, the primary outcome was a composite measure of observer-rated NPI-I & -A domains transformed to a Rasch logit scale running from 0 (best) to 100 (worse) units (i.e., observer-rated NPI-I/A Rasch construct scores). Mean day-42 observer-rated NPI-I/A Rasch construct scores were compared between placebo vs. carbamazepine using ANCOVA with baseline score as covariate. (NCT00621751)
Timeframe: 42 days

Neuropsychiatric Inventory Irritability-Aggression Domains Composite Measure Completed by Participant [Time Frame: 42 Days]

Neuropsychiatry Inventory-Irritability (NPI-I) & Aggression domains (NPI-A): NPI is a 40-item assessment of 12 behavioral domains (NPI-I & NPI-A domains used in this study). The most problematic aspect of each domain is graded for severity (1=mild, to 3=severe) and frequency (1-4 with 4 representing highest frequency); the domain scores (0-12) are the product of severity and frequency. To best reflect treatment target intent and meet parametric statistical method criteria, a composite measure of participant-rated NPI-I & -A domains transformed to a Rasch logit scale running from 0 (best) to 100 (worse) units (i.e., participant-rated NPI-I/A Rasch construct scores). Mean day-42 participant-rated NPI-I/A Rasch construct scores were compared between placebo vs. CBZ using ANCOVA with baseline score as covariate. (NCT00621751)

Proportion of Participants With Minimal Clinically Important Difference -- Observer Rating

Proportion of participants with Minimal Clinically Important Difference (MCID) on Neuropsychiatric Inventory Irritability-Aggression Composite Measure completed by Observer. Specifically, the proportion of participants that experienced a decrease of > 1 (MCID) in the NPI-I/A Rasch construct score (i.e., participants that are considered to have meaningful reduction in irritability/aggression) from baseline to day-42 between the groups using a chi-square test. MCID was defined as 0.5 times the standard deviation of baseline scores. (NCT00621751)
Timeframe: 42-day
