NCT06404177

Brief Summary

For pain of traumatic origin, the RICE protocol (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation) is the main therapeutic measure during the first 4 to 5 days post-trauma. However, there is currently insufficient evidence that this protocol is effective \[4\]. In the emergency department, paracetamol, NSAIDs or a combination of several molecules are generally prescribed. Patients even use these drugs without a prescription. The aim of this study is to Compare the effect of dexketoprofen® IV versus piroxen® IM in the treatment of pain in emergency departments.
