Summary

This study looked at whether adding ketamine to a standard numbing medicine (bupivacaine) helps control pain better in infants after open kidney surgery. Forty infants under 1 year old were split into two groups: one got the standard numbing block, the other got the numbing block plus ketamine. Researchers measured pain scores, how long pain relief lasted, and how much extra pain medicine was needed.
