We estimate the minimum dose and total sedation time of rapidly infused ketamine that achieves 3 to 5 minutes of effective sedation in children undergoing forearm fracture reduction in the emergency department. ⋯ We estimated ED50 and ED95 for rapidly infused ketamine for 3 age groups undergoing fracture reduction. Total sedation time was shorter than that in most previous studies.
