NCT00834470

Brief Summary

  • Ketamine seems an obvious choice in the setting of an emergency department
  • Ketamine leads to increased production of salivary and tracheal secretions
  • Antisialagogues(atropine)therefore have been recommended as a routine adjunct
  • We compare atropine with placebo as an adjunct to ketamine sedation in children undergoing primary closure of lacerated wound
