Brief Summary:

Using Ketamine for procedural sedation in adults is often uncomfortable for emergency physicians because of the significant proportion of patients experimenting recovery agitation. The investigators believe that combining propofol to ketamine, the proportion of recovery agitation will be significantly lowered.

The objectives of this double-blinded, randomized controlled trial are to compare the proportion of recovery agitation in adults receiving procedural sedation with ketamine-propofol versus ketamine alone, and to compare the proportion of other classical procedural sedation side-effects and parameters such as respiratory depression, hypotension, sedation duration, time of recovery, procedural failures, and levels of satisfaction.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Ketamine-propofol Drug: Procedural sedation with ketamine-propofol combination

K= Kétamine P= Propofol RSS= Ramsay Sedation Score

At t0: 0.5 mg/kg of K (0.1 ml/kg of 5 mg/ml K) followed by 0.5 mg/k of P (0.1 ml/kg of 5 mg/ml P).

At t0 + 4 min, if needed to obtain an optimal sedation (RSS of 4 or 5): 0.25 mg/kg of K (0.05 ml/kg of 5 mg/ml K) followed by 0.25 mg/kg of P (0.05 ml/kg of 5 mg/ml P).

At t0 + 8 min, if needed to obtain an optimal sedation (RSS of 4 or 5): 0.25 mg/kg of K (0.05 ml/kg of 5 mg/ml K) followed by 0.25 mg/kg of P (0.05 ml/kg of 5 mg/ml P).

At t0 + 12 min, if maximal doses have been reached (1 mg/kg of K + 1 mg/kg of P) but the optimal sedation has not been obtained, the procedural sedation will be recorded as a failure in the analysis, and the patient will receive another procedural sedation product (at the discretion of the caregiver).


Active Comparator: Ketamine alone Drug: Procedural sedation with ketamine alone

K= Ketamine I= Intralipid placebo

At t0: 1 mg/kg of K (0.1 ml/kg of 10 mg/ml K), followed by 0.1 ml/kg of I (physical placebo of propofol in the other arm).

At t0 + 4 min, if needed to obtain an optimal sedation (Ramsay Sedation Score of 4 or 5): 0.5 mg/kg of K (0.05 ml/kg of 10 mg/ml K), followed by 0.05 ml/kg of I.

At t0 + 8 min, if needed to obtain an optimal sedation (Ramsay Sedation Score of 4 or 5): 0.5 mg/kg of K (0.05 ml/kg of 10 mg/ml K), followed by 0.05 ml/kg of I.

At t0 + 12 min, if maximal doses have been used (2 mg/kg of K) but the optimal sedation has not been obtained, the procedural sedation will be recorded as a failure in the analysis, and the patient will receive another procedural sedation product (at the discretion of the caregiver).





Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Proportion of recovery agitation [ Time Frame: Recovery agitation is noted after procedural sedation for each patient (30 minutes) ]
    Patient will be followed during the procedural sedation, for an average time of thirty minutes after the first injection


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Time from first injection to optimal sedation [ Time Frame: Patient will be followed during the procedural sedation, for an average time of thirty minutes after the first injection (30 minutes) ]
  2. Proportion of respiratory depression [ Time Frame: respiratory depression is assessed during procedural sedation for each patient (30 minutes) ]
    Patient will be followed during the procedural sedation, for an average time of thirty minutes after the first injection

  3. Proportion of arterial hypotension [ Time Frame: Hypotension is assessed during procedural sedation for each patient (30 minutes) ]
    Patient will be followed during the procedural sedation, for an average time of thirty minutes after the first injection

  4. Proportion of vomiting [ Time Frame: vomiting is assessed after procedural sedation for each patient (30 minutes) ]
    Patient will be followed duriong the procedural sedation, for an average time of thirty minutes after the first injection

  5. Recovery time [ Time Frame: Recovery time is assessed after procedural sedation for each patient (30 minutes) ]
    Patient will be followed duriong the procedural sedation, for an average time of thirty minutes after the first injection

  6. Proportion of procedural failures [ Time Frame: Procedural failure is noted for each patient if it's happened (30 minutes) ]
    Patient will be followed duriong the procedural sedation, for an average time of thirty minutes after the first injection

  7. Level of patient's satisfaction [ Time Frame: after procedural sedation, patient's satisfaction is recorded (30 minutes) ]
    Patient will be followed during the procedural sedation, for an average time of thirty minutes after the first injection

  8. Level of care giver's satisfaction [ Time Frame: after procedural sedation, care giver's satisfaction is recorded (30 minutes) ]
    Patient will be followed during the procedural sedation, for an average time of thirty minutes after the first injection
