Table 2. Results of the paired t-test analysis examining the mean change in pain scale before and after the intervention with cannabinoid products.

This table displays the results of a paired t-test analysis examining the mean change in pain scale before and after the intervention with cannabis products. The data are represented as mean, SD, and SEM. A statistically significant change was observed in the patient-reported pain scale, with a mean pain scale difference of 2.267. The calculated t-value is 7.717, with 44 degrees of freedom (df), and a p-value of less than 0.001, indicating a highly significant difference. These findings suggest a substantial reduction in pain severity following the administration of cannabis products compared to baseline levels.
