Clinical Study

A Pilot Study of Ketamine versus Midazolam/Fentanyl Sedation in Children Undergoing GI Endoscopy

Figure 2

Analysis of covariance of percent time nonvocalizing on years of age, adjusted for sedation type. Ketamine sedation is represented by closed circles (●) and a solid regression line (—) while medazolam/fentanyl is represented by open circles (∘) and a dotted regression line ( ). Ketamine sedation is associated with a greater percentage of time nonvocalizing compared with medazolam/fentanyl ( 𝑃 = . 0 0 2 ), independent of the effect of age. The interaction of sedation type with age was not statistically significant ( 𝑃 = . 3 1 ).
