# Title of Dataset: --- Ketamine infiltration decreases opioid requirement after thyroid surgery ## Description of the Data and file structure This is an SPSS file concerning the clinical and biological data of patients In this randomized controlled trial, we prospectively studied patients who underwent thyroid surgery. Patients were randomized into two groups: group S, local infiltration was performed using 10 ml of a physiological saline solution; group K, 10 ml of a solution containing 2 mg / kg ketamine was infiltrated. Standardized thyroidectomies were performed in the 2 groups. Pain perception was measured using a visual analog scale (VAS) every 10 minutes in the post-anesthetic care unit (PACU) for 2 hours and every 6 hours during the first 24 hours. The opioids requirement in the PACU was evaluated. Comparison between the 2 groups was carried out. ## Sharing/access Information Links to other publicly accessible locations of the data:no Was data derived from another source? If yes, list source(s):
