Background: Patients who present to the emergency department (ED) with incarcerated or strangulated ventral hernias are often in significant pain. Furthermore, even with procedural sedation, reduction itself also causes substantial pain. Hernias that cannot be reduced at the bedside with intravenous opioids or procedural sedation will require emergent surgery, which contributes to morbidity and mortality, especially in high-risk populations.
Case report: We present the case of a 94-year-old man with an incarcerated ventral hernia that was reduced in the ED with the aid of a rectus sheath block, ultimately avoiding the need for emergent surgical intervention.
Implications: Ultrasound can visualize and diagnose an incarcerated hernia, and a bilateral rectus sheath block can be performed in the ED to anesthetize the peritoneal wall, paralyze abdominal musculature, and achieve nearly painless hernia reduction.

Background: Shoulder pain is a common presentation to the Emergency Department (ED). Despite an increasing volume of ED visits for shoulder pain, achieving adequate pain control can be challenging. Ultrasound-guided nerve blocks, such as the interscalene nerve block (ISB), are effective but can cause hemidiaphragmatic paresis and motor dysfunction. The interfascial plane block (IPB) is a simple and new regional anesthesia technique that spares the diaphragm, and most upper extremity motor function.
Case report: Three patients presented to the ED with acute shoulder pain refractory to oral analgesics and were treated successfully with an ultrasound-guided IPB in the ED.
Conclusion: The ultrasound-guided IPB is a simple, safe, and effective alternative approach to treating shoulder pain in the ED, especially in patients who may not tolerate ISB.

Background and objectives
Ketamine is increasingly being utilized in the management of acute pain in the emergency department (ED), including for older adults, a population at increased risk of adverse effects from medications. We aimed to compare the safety and analgesic effects of high-dose (≥0.3 mg/kg) to low-dose (<0.3 mg/kg) intravenous (IV) ketamine among older ED patients.
Methods
Multi-center, retrospective cohort study of adults ≥60 years who received IV ketamine for pain between 2018 and 2021. The primary outcome was pain improvement as measured by the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) pain score within 60 min after administration. Secondary outcomes included adverse effects (early discontinuation, nausea, rescue benzodiazepines and intubation) and the need for rescue analgesia. Linear regression was used to assess the association between the change in NRS pain scores and dose after adjusting for baseline pain, requiring an additional dose of ketamine, and receiving an opioid.
Results
A total of 130 older adults received ketamine as an analgesic (37 high-dose, 93 low-dose). Median age was 69.2 years, 52 % were women, 40 % had a history of substance use disorder. Prior to ketamine, 76 % received alternate analgesics and 23 % antiemetics. Baseline mean pain score was lower in the high-dose group (6.7 vs. 8.3, difference −1.7 [95 % CI −2.6 to −0.7], p = 0.013). Change in NRS pain scores were similar between the high-dose and low-dose groups (−2.4 [95 % CI −3.6 to −1.3] vs −1.6 [95 % CI −2.2 to −0.9], p = 0.27). After adjustment for baseline pain score, the high-dose group had a larger reduction in pain scores (−1.3 [95 % CI −2.6 to −0.1], p = 0.042) and percent change of pain (−23.8 % [95 % CI −42.1 % to −5.4 %], p = 0.012). There was no significant difference in rates of rescue analgesia (35.1 % vs. 44.1 %, p = 0.35) or early discontinuation (29.7 % vs. 32.3 %, p = 0.78). Rates of adverse effects were similar.
Conclusion
High-dose and low-dose ketamine reduced pain scores in older adults. High-dose ketamine led to a greater reduction in pain scores, and there was no observed difference in adverse effects or the need for rescue analgesia. One-third needed discontinuation of ketamine in both groups.
背景和目的:氯胺酮正越来越多地被用于急诊科(ED)急性疼痛的治疗,包括老年人,因为老年人因药物不良反应而增加的风险更大。我们的目的是比较大剂量(≥0.3 毫克/千克)和小剂量(方法:多中心回顾性研究)氯胺酮的安全性和镇痛效果:多中心、回顾性队列研究,对象为 2018 年至 2021 年间接受静脉注射氯胺酮治疗疼痛的≥60 岁成人。主要结果为用药后 60 分钟内通过数字评分量表(NRS)疼痛评分衡量的疼痛改善情况。次要结果包括不良反应(提前停药、恶心、苯二氮卓类药物抢救和插管)以及对抢救性镇痛的需求。在对基线疼痛、需要额外剂量氯胺酮和接受阿片类药物进行调整后,采用线性回归评估 NRS 疼痛评分变化与剂量之间的关系:共有 130 名老年人接受了氯胺酮镇痛(37 名高剂量,93 名低剂量)。中位年龄为 69.2 岁,52% 为女性,40% 有药物使用障碍史。在使用氯胺酮之前,76%的患者接受了替代镇痛药,23%的患者接受了止吐药。大剂量组的基线平均疼痛评分较低(6.7 对 8.3,差异-1.7 [95 % CI -2.6 to -0.7],P = 0.013)。高剂量组和低剂量组的 NRS 疼痛评分变化相似(-2.4 [95 % CI -3.6 to -1.3] vs -1.6 [95 % CI -2.2 to -0.9],p = 0.27)。对基线疼痛评分进行调整后,大剂量组的疼痛评分(-1.3 [95 % CI -2.6 to -0.1],p = 0.042)和疼痛变化百分比(-23.8 % [95 % CI -42.1 % to -5.4%],p = 0.012)降低幅度更大。抢救性镇痛率(35.1% 对 44.1%,p = 0.35)和提前停药率(29.7% 对 32.3%,p = 0.78)没有明显差异。不良反应发生率相似:结论:大剂量和小剂量氯胺酮都能降低老年人的疼痛评分。大剂量氯胺酮能更大程度地降低疼痛评分,而在不良反应或镇痛抢救需求方面没有观察到差异。两组中都有三分之一的人需要停用氯胺酮。
