Ketamine vs fentanyl: which sedation works better for painful procedures?

NCT ID NCT07040163

Summary

This study compares two sedation combinations to reduce pain during biopsies and drainage procedures in interventional radiology. Researchers will randomly assign 276 patients to receive either ketamine/midazolam or the standard fentanyl/midazolam sedation. The goal is to see if ketamine provides better pain control and patient satisfaction without increasing side effects during these often uncomfortable procedures.
