Groups2
Neither group, or both, names a comparator, so the groups keep ClinicalTrials.gov's order.
| Group | Title | Description | With the outcome | Analysed | ClinicalTrials.gov code |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group 1 | Ketamine | Participants in this arm will receive intraoperative ketamine bolus (0.5mg/kg) followed by continuous infusion 5 mcg/kg/min and also will receive postoperative ketamine infusion (2.5 mcg/kg/min, up to 100kg max) for 48 hours.~Ketamine: Participants in the ketamine arm will receive intraoperative and postoperative ketamine. | 1 | 770 | EG000 |
| Group 2 | Saline | Participants in this arm will receive an equivalent volume of intraoperative saline bolus followed by continuous saline infusion and also will receive postoperative saline infusion for 48 hours.~Placebo: Participants in the placebo arm will receive intraoperative and postoperative saline. | 0 | 752 | EG001 |
