This prospective randomized study evaluated the effects of ketamine with remifentanil to improve the quality of anaesthesia and postoperative recovery, following brief procedures, in 60 paediatric patients undergoing middle-ear ventilation tube insertion (MEVTI). Patients were randomly assigned to either ketamine 2 mg/kg intravenous [i.v.] bolus plus normal saline by i.v. infusion (K group, n = 30) or ketamine 2 mg/kg i.v. bolus, plus remifentanil 0.15 µg/kg per min i.v. infusion (KR group, n = 30). Parameters that were assessed included intraoperative patient movement, surgeon satisfaction, anaesthesia time, total ketamine dose, postoperative recovery time, agitation and side-effects. Intraoperative patient movement scores were significantly lower, and surgeon satisfaction scores were significantly higher, in the KR group than in the K group. Time to recovery was significantly shorter in the KR group than in the K group. In conclusion, remifentanil was a good adjuvant to ketamine, improving the quality of anaesthesia and postoperative recovery in children undergoing MEVTI.
