Ketamine group

This group was used intranasal ketamine, syringes were made with 4 ml of the drug (50mg/ml), 1 randomized per patient. The validity stability and were 7 days after drawing the solution. The drug began to take effect in 10 minutes and lasted about 40 minutes.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Ketamine

Intervention Type DRUG

As indicated the use of sedative and after authorization of the person responsible, the child receives the intranasal solution. Before administration of the solution 2 hour and 24 hours after the procedure, must be recorded vital signs of the patient. A person with the help of a clock will make the time count. The nurse and the patient's family must respond to the study protocol questions

Placebo Group

This group was used intranasal saline, syringes were made with 4 ml of liquid 1 per patient randomized. The validity stability and were 7 days after drawing the solution.

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Placebo

Intervention Type DRUG
