Summary

This is a randomized, single blinded, placebo-controlled trial to study the effectiveness of a subanesthetic dose (0.6 mg/kg) of ketamine versus placebo (saline) on postoperative pain and pain on adult female chronic pelvic pain patients undergoing robotic removal of endometriosis. The objective of the study is to explore the effect of a sub anesthetic dose of ketamine (0.6 mg/kg) vs. saline control on postoperative pain and recovery in chronic pelvic pain patients who have undergone robotic removal of endometriosis.

Conditions

  • Endometriosis
  • Post Operative Pain

Interventions

DRUG

Ketamine

Participants in this arm will receive intravenously (IV) ketamine (0.6 mg/kg) while recovering in the post anesthesia care unit (PACU) on the day of the surgery after subject has been deemed to be stable (hemodynamically stable, awake). The study physician will administer the study intervention via an intravenous pump to deliver 0.6 mg/kg ketamine over at least 30 minutes.

DRUG

Placebo

Participants in this arm will receive intravenously (IV) matching equal dose of placebo while recovering in the post anesthesia care unit (PACU) on the day of the surgery after subject has been deemed to be stable (hemodynamically stable, awake). The study physician will administer the study intervention via an intravenous pump to deliver equal volume saline over at least 30 minutes.
