Title
Nifedipine for primary dysmenorrhoea [Cochrane protocol]
Review Question
To assess the effectiveness and safety of nifedipine for primary dysmenorrhoea.
Study Type Included
Published and unpublished randomised controlled trials (RCTs) will be eligible for inclusion. We will exclude non- randomised studies (e.g. studies with evidence of inadequate sequence generation such as alternate days, patient numbers) because they are associated with a high risk of bias. Cross-over trials will be included, because cross-over is a valid design in this context.
Condition Being Studied
The Cochrane Gynaecology and Fertility Group
Participant
Women with primary dysmenorrhoea will be eligible for inclusion. Primary dysmenorrhoea will be defined as painful uterine cramps associated with menstrual periods in the absence of known pelvic pathology.
Animal
Human Disease Modelled
Intervention
Trials comparing nifedipine with any other pharmacologic intervention or placebo will be eligible for inclusion. Trials comparing the addition of nifedipine to other pharmacological agents will also be included; for example 'drug x plus nifedipine versus drug X alone'. Nifedipine may be administered by any route. Nifedipine has not been included in other published Cochrane Reviews regarding dysmenorrhoea as a comparator. For technical reasons the intervention and comparators fields for Cochrane protocols are identical and each may include information on both interventions and comparators
Comparator Control
Trials comparing nifedipine with any other pharmacologic intervention or placebo will be eligible for inclusion. Trials comparing the addition of nifedipine to other pharmacological agents will also be included; for example 'drug x plus nifedipine versus drug X alone'. Nifedipine may be administered by any route. Nifedipine has not been included in other published Cochrane Reviews regarding dysmenorrhoea as a comparator. For technical reasons the intervention and comparators fields for Cochrane protocols are identical and each may include information on both interventions and comparators
Main Outcome
1. Pain Eligible measures of pain will include: 0 to 10 numeric pain rating scale (preferred); visual analogue scale; binary pain measures (i.e. yes/no); and other measures of pain as reported in the included studies.</ul> 2. Health-related quality of life (QoL) using a validated tool such as SF-36 (preferred measure).
Outcome Measure
Additional Outcome
1. Adverse effects (including the following examples): any adverse effect; headache; facial flushing; dizziness/faintness/symptomatic hypotension; and palpitations/symptomatic tachycardia.</ul> 2. Satisfaction rate (as defined by trial authors). 3. Requirement for additional medication. This will be measured by yes/no answer, including different types and doses of other medications. We anticipate that studies may report outcomes at multiple time points. We will use data from the longest period of follow up for our primary and secondary outcomes.
