New pain relief combo tested for kids with broken bones

NCT ID NCT00416039

Summary

This study tested whether adding a calming medication (midazolam) under the tongue improves pain relief when given with oral morphine to children with displaced arm fractures in the emergency department. 60 children aged 5-16 were randomly assigned to receive either morphine with the added medication or morphine with a placebo. The main goal was to see if the combination led to significantly greater pain reduction 30 minutes after treatment.
