Protocol summary

Study aim
The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy, speed of action and side effects between administration of desmopressin and ketamine spray in analgesia of renal colic patients.
Design
Double-blind, randomized parallel-group clinical trial
Settings and conduct
After obtaining the code of ethics from the ethics committee of Isfahan University of Medical Sciences and obtaining written consent from 135 eligible patients, they are divided into three groups of 45 cases using a computer-generated random number table with 4 blocks. In the first group desmopressin, in the second group intranasal ketamine and in the third group placebo are administered. After receiving the initial analgesic, the pain score is assessed by VAS at 10, 30 and 60 minutes. Finally, the vital signs of patients including heart rate, respiration rate, oxygen saturation and systolic and diastolic blood pressure are measured and recorded.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Adult patients with renal colic or typical renal colic pain referred to the emergency department with severe pain (VAS> 5) and age less than 65 years. Exclusion criteria: hypertension and patients with heart, liver and Kidney, rhinitis, drug addicts, pregnant patients, patients treated with anticoagulants, patients with decreased level of consciousness. Also, patients who were diagnosed with other causes such as appendicitis. Hypersensitivity to desmopressin, ketamine and morphine and history of analgesic use within 6 hours before the procedure
Intervention groups
Patients aged 18 to 65 years who are diagnosed with renal colic need analgesic treatment.Intervention group 1: nasal desmopressin and ketorolac. Intervention group 2: ketamine intranasel and ketorolac. Control group: placebo and ketorolac
Main outcome variables
The severity of pain is measured based on the VAS scale.

Randomization description
After the arrival of the patients to the emergency department, they are divided into 3 groups by a computer-generated random number table with 6 blocks. The selected subjects will be divided into each study group in a randomized block method using 6 rows of four blocks (ABCABC-BACBAC-ACBBCA-BCAACB-AABBCC-CCBBAA). Desmopressin group (A), Ketamine group (B) and placebo group (c). Then, from the created blocks, enough blocks are randomly selected to reach the required sample size. Select the number of blocks from the table of random numbers and based on these numbers, the sequence of blocks in each group will be determined. All this will be done with software called Sealed Envelope.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
First, ketamine and placebo (distilled water) sprays are packaged similar to desmopressin spray and then numbered and given to the triage nurse. The nurse, doctor and patient do not know the contents of the ointment.
