Summary
Forty‐two children received either nefopam or a maiched placebo as oral premedication in a double‐blind trial. Nefopam performed no better than placebo as a prernedication and as postoperative analgesic. Its use is not recommended in paediatric anasthesia because of a significanily high incidence of vomiting on awakening.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
