Interventions

  • Ketamine + Lidocaine — DRUG
    Including comparisons between patients randomized for treatment with full ketamine sedation in setting of distal radius fracture reduction, hematoma block/minimal ketamine pain control (. 0.25mg/kg) for distal radius fracture reduction, or intranasal fentanyl and hematoma block, utilized in the setting of distal radius fractures in pediatric patients requiring reduction
  • Ketamine group — DRUG
    Including comparisons between patients randomized for treatment with full ketamine sedation in setting of distal radius fracture reduction, hematoma block/minimal ketamine pain control (. 0.25mg/kg) for distal radius fracture reduction, or intranasal fentanyl and hematoma block, utilized in the setting of distal radius fractures in pediatric patients requiring reduction
  • Fentanyl (Nasalfent, Fentanyl Citrate Nasal Spray) — DRUG
    Including comparisons between patients randomized for treatment with full ketamine sedation in setting of distal radius fracture reduction, hematoma block/minimal ketamine pain control (. 0.25mg/kg) for distal radius fracture reduction, or intranasal fentanyl and hematoma block, utilized in the setting of distal radius fractures in pediatric patients requiring reduction

Study Details

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a hematoma block and minimal ketamine pain control or hematoma block and intranasal fentanyl in pediatric patients presenting with distal radius fractures requiring reduction, compared to control of standard full conscious sedation using ketamine.

Arms

  • Active Comparator: Full ketamine sedation
    Including group of patients treated with full ketamine sedation in setting of distal radius fracture reduction
  • Active Comparator: Hematoma block/minimal ketamine pain control
    Including group of patients treated with hematoma block/minimal ketamine pain control (. 0.25mg/kg) for distal radius fracture reduction in pediatric patients requiring reduction
  • Active Comparator: hematoma block/intranasal fentanyl
    Including control group of patients treated with intranasal fentanyl and hematoma block, utilized in the setting of distal radius fractures in pediatric patients requiring reduction

Primary Outcome Measure

Pain control efficacy [ Time Frame: 1 hour after fracture reduction is complete on the day of the procedure/study visit. ]
