Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the analgesia efficacy of local ketamine given by two different doses in pediatric patients undergoing tonsillectomy operations

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In this double-blinded, clinically-controlled trial, 100 child will be randomized into four groups of 25 patients each; control group, intravenous ketamine group received 0.5mg iv. ketamine, and two local ketamine groups receiving local ketamine by nebulization in two different doses; 1 and 2mg/kg. The verbal rating pain scale, time to first postoperative analgesic request, total analgesic consumption during 1st 24 h postoperative, serum ketamine levels, intra operative blood loss, postoperative bleeding, and adverse effects were evaluated.
