ketamine and Lacerations

ketamine has been researched along with Lacerations in 17 studies

Ketamine: A cyclohexanone derivative used for induction of anesthesia. Its mechanism of action is not well understood, but ketamine can block NMDA receptors (RECEPTORS, N-METHYL-D-ASPARTATE) and may interact with sigma receptors.
ketamine : A member of the class of cyclohexanones in which one of the hydrogens at position 2 is substituted by a 2-chlorophenyl group, while the other is substituted by a methylamino group.

Lacerations: Torn, ragged, mangled wounds.

Trial Outcomes

Parental Satisfaction

If my child needed medications to stay calm for a procedure, I would like to use these same medications again. (NCT03054844)
Timeframe: 1 minute

InterventionParticipants (Count of Participants)
PREMED10
PREMIX12

Procedural Distress, Cry Duration

Cry duration was measured in seconds and defined as the time from onset of crying following administration of an IN medication until the cessation of crying sounds and/or tears. If a patient did not cry, the cry duration was zero (NCT03054844)
Timeframe: 10 minutes

Interventionseconds (Mean)

PREMIX73

Procedural Distress, FLACC

The Faces, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability (FLACC) scale is comprised of five criteria (face, legs, activity, cry, consolability), with a possible score of 0 to 2 units on a scale for each criteria and a possible total score of 0 to 10 units on a scale (0 meaning no pain, 10 meaning most pain). (NCT03054844)
Timeframe: 10 minutes

InterventionUnits on a scale (Mean)

Procedural Distress, OSBD-R

The Observational Scale of Behavioral Distress-Revised (OSBD-R) is an observational measure of pain and distress shown to have strong validity in children. The scale is an 8-factor, weighted observational scale used to measure distress associated with medical procedures, which has been validated in children and adults aged 1 to 20 years. The total Observational Scale of Behavioral Distress-Revised score is the sum of the scale scores for each phase, with each phase assigned a score from 0 to 23.5 units on a scale (0=no distress, 23.5=maximum distress), based on the frequency and types of behaviors observed during a predetermined number of 15-second intervals during each phase. There were four phases so the range of scores for the total OSBD-R was 0 to 94 units on a scale, with a higher score indicated a greater degree of distress. (NCT03054844)
Timeframe: 10 minutes

Procedural Pain

The Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario Pain Scale (CHEOPS) utilizes six observational factors (cry, facial, verbal, torso, touch, and legs) to evaluate pain in young children and can be used to monitor the effectiveness of interventions for reducing the pain and discomfort of an intervention. This scale rates each behavior numerically, with a score of 4-6 units on a scale representing no pain, and a maximum score of 13 units on a scale representing (most pain perceived). (NCT03054844)
Timeframe: 10 minutes
