Ketamine Low dOse Evaluation on Morphine Consumption in Traumatic Patient

The aim of this study is to demonstrate a significant reduction of at least 25% in opioid consumption at 48 hours of management of severe trauma, while demonstrating non-inferiority in terms of analgesia, in a group of patients receiving a continuous infusion of low dose ketamine compared to a placebo group.
