NCT00834730

Brief Summary

  • Ketamine provides effective and relatively safe sedation analgesia for primary closure of lacerated pediatric patients
  • However, deep sedation and adverse effects suggest the opportunity to develop alternative strategies
  • We compared the efficacy and adverse effects of ketamine to those of N2O gas for analgesia and anxiolysis during primary repair of lacerated pediatric patients
