Subjects will be randomly assigned to one of the two treatment groups A and B. Guardians of patients who are scheduled for burn wound care will sign written consent pre- operatively about procedural pain management. Group A will receive rectal ketamine while those in Group B will receive only traditional standard of care protocols.
The study will mainly focus on procedural pain management using oral morphine versus rectal ketamine during paediatric burn and wound dressing at Mbarara Regional Referral Hospital.
