STUDY OBJECTIVE: To compare the analgesic effect of IM @entity3285 with that of oral @entity3352 in the treatment of @entity3811 . DESIGN: Prospective, randomized, double-blind, controlled, parallel group clinical trial. SETTING: Two urban emergency departments. @entity1 : Twenty consecutive @entity1 who presented to the @entity2613 with @entity697 . INTERVENTIONS: Each @entity1 was randomly assigned to receive in the @entity2613 (1) 60 mg of IM @entity6058 and oral placebo or (2) 50 mg of oral @entity3352 and IM placebo. The @entity1 rated the intensity of their @entity158 on a Wong-Baker @entity158 scale (which runs from 0 to 5) before treatment and 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after treatment. All the @entity1 were discharged with instructions to take oral @entity3352 and to complete @entity158 score cards at home at 6, 12, and 24 hours. RESULTS: The 10 @entity1 in each group were similar with regard to age, sex, race, and initial mean @entity158 score. After 2 hours, the mean @entity158 scores (+/- SD) for the @entity6058 group had decreased from 4.5 +/- .71 to 1.4 +/- 1.43 (P < .05), and the mean score for the @entity3352 group had decreased from 4.4 +/- .70 to 1.5 +/- 1.18 (P < .05). The difference between the two groups was not significant. At 6 hours, there was some @entity158 rebound in the @entity6058 group. CONCLUSION: IM @entity6058 and oral @entity3352 are similar in the relief of the @entity158 of @entity3811 in the @entity2613 .
