Summary
Acute tramatic pain is one of main reasons for consultation in pediatric emergency
departments.
To manage pain quickly and effectively must be a primary outcome of the emergency department.
However, pediatric emergency department are sometimes criticized for inadequate and delayed
initiation analgesia . Indeed, several studies have shown the inadequacy between the
intensity of the pain evaluated by the care team and the therapeutic management of it.
The ideal analgesic must have a rapid onset of action, have a powerful analgesic effect, have
few side effects and can be administered quickly and painlessly. That's why, the main outcome
of this study is to assess the non inferiority of a treatment by intranasal Fentanyl vs
morphine sulfate (oral use) in children with traumatic pain on arrival to pediatric emergency
department.
