ABSTRACT

Objective. To study the use of oral ketamine premeditation to alleviate the distress of invasive procedures in children. We studied the oral ketamine efficacy in pain treatment during.
Material and methods. In 22 children the oral ketamine was given before the invasive procedure at 10 mg/kg the procedures were: central venous catheter in 18 lumbar functions in three and a bone marrow aspiration in one. We recorded the cardiac and respiratory rates, arterial tension, and oximetry were recorded as well as Glasgow coma scale and the determination of CO2 and arterial tension, and time when the analgesia was initiated.
Results. Analgesia was obtained at 13.1 ± 2 min; the physiological variables increased 3 to 9% above basal rates before the procedure. Deep sedation or cardiorespiratory complication. Were not founded. The Glasgow score was kept on 14 points. Because of pain in two (9%) children was necessary administered another drug.
Conclusions. We concluded that ketamine is effective as analgesic drug via oral to alleviate pain during procedures.
