Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Change From Baseline in Mean BPI Index Scores at 2 Weeks | Bleeding on probing (BOP) is an objective indicator of inflammation. BPI (Bleeding Point Index) is a validated index used to measure BOP. BOP is determined at the buccal, lingual and proximal surfaces of all teeth using BPI scores. BPI scores are measured at baseline and 2 weeks, followed by a wash out period of one week. BPI score is measured again at baseline and 2 weeks after cross over in intervention. Change in BPI scores will give the estimation of effect of the intervention. BPI score- minimum value is 0% and Maximum is 100% of bleeding surfaces in each individual patient with teeth. A positive error means that the predicted value is larger than the true value, and a negative error means that the predicted value is less than the true value. The mean error should be close to zero. Sometimes it will be negative or positive depending on the population.. Higher mean score is poor outcome. However, higher reduction in mean score compared to baseline is better outcome. | Baseline and 2 weeks | |
Secondary | Change From Baseline in Mean RMNPI Index Score at 2 Weeks | Rustogi Modified Navy Plaque Index(RMNPI) is a self validated tool to assess dental plaque accumulation on the teeth surfaces. RMNPI scores are used to assess change in plaque scores at baseline and at the end of 2 weeks .This will be followed by a 1 week wash out period. Then there is a cross over in the intervention. RMNPI scores are measured again from Baseline and 2 weeks. Maximum number of surfaces examined are 504 per person. A Minimum value of 0 and maximum value of 1 can be calculated in each patient. Higher mean score is a worse outcome. However,higher percent reduction in mean score when compared to baseline is better outcome. |
