Arm Description

Perform procedural sedation with slow push of ketamine, 1.5mg/kg, over thirty seconds while reading the Positive Imagery Therapy below: "Relax and close your eyes. Take deep breaths in through your nose and out through your mouth as you listen to the sound of my voice. (Three second pause.) I want you to picture yourself lying on a towel on a soft sandy beach. (Three second pause.) You can see a palm trees swaying in the wind beneath a bright blue sky with a few white puffy clouds. (Three second pause.) You can feel the sand between your toes, the warm sunlight on your skin and a cool breeze. (Three second pause) You can smell coconut lotion in the breeze. (Three second pause.) You can hear the sound of waves gently crashing on the beach and seagulls crying in the distance. **End of vignette**

Perform procedural sedation with slow push of ketamine, 1.5mg/kg, over thirty seconds with no positive imagery therapy.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Richmond Agitation Sedation Score (RASS) for those receiving procedural sedation with and without ketamine
RASS score measured is -5 to +4. A lower score indicates someone is more alert, calm, drowsy indicating the patient has no emergence reaction. Higher score indicates an emergence reaction occurred.
Pittsburgh Agitation Score for those receiving procedural sedation with and without ketamine
PAS is measures from 0-16. A lower score indicated no agitation or emergence reaction while a higher score does.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine if positive imagery therapy while using ketamine in procedural sedation reduces the number of emergence reactions and impacts pre and post-procedural anxiety.
Detailed Description
This is a multi-center, randomized controlled trial looking at if positive imagery therapy while using ketamine during procedural sedation will reduce the number of emergence reactions and impacts pre and post procedural anxiety. After informed consent has been established and the subject is determined to meet eligibility criteria, participants will be randomized into 2 groups. The interventional group will undergo positive imagery therapy during sedation and the control will not. The duration of subject participation will be from the onset of sedation beginning until the patient is recovered.
