dc.description.abstractObjective: To compare the analgesic efficacy of ketamine with Fentanyl/Midazolam in women requiring uterine evacuation for incomplete miscarriage as measured by the patients’ perceived pain. Study design: An efficacy trial with a naturally occurring control group who received what is currently standard practice. The study ran over two 4-week periods (25/06/2012 to 19/08/2012). Setting: Groote Schuur Hospital (a tertiary hospital) situated in Cape Town, South Africa. Population: All women between the ages of 18 and 55 years admitted to Groote Schuur Hospital for uterine evacuation following a spontaneous incomplete miscarriage or missed miscarriage that were not excluded by any of the exclusion criteria. Methods: Over a 2 month period (two 4-week periods), all patients meeting the inclusion criteria were allocated to either the control group (month 1) or the study group (month 2). Data was collected from all these evacuations during the study period at Groote Schuur Hospital.en_ZA
