title: [Ketamine administration technic in pediatric anesthesia].
abstract: Psychic trauma connected with surgical operations and with all their preparatory procedures in children, often cause behavioural alterations. Problems related to the type of anesthetic premedication and to the anesthesiologic technique also come within this field. The Authors describe their experience with ketamine, administered by oral route, as a sole drug to obtain a deep sedation (when radiographic examination and orthopedic procedures were required) and as an induction drug for a balanced anesthesia.
