Good pain control is not a normal part of surgical care in sub-Saharan Africa due to lack of resources. The primary objective of this study was to determine an efficacious dose of subcutaneous ketamine for postoperative pain for use in a future randomized controlled trial. ⋯ Adding subcutaneous ketamine to standard analgesic measures resulted in decreases in postoperative pain scores without serious side effects. These data can be used to inform a randomized controlled trial to compare subcutaneous ketamine plus standard care with placebo plus standard care for reducing postoperative pain.
