A Randomized Study Comparing of Three Doses Nebulized Fentanyl in Older Adults

After the enrollment process, the main research assistant will take a brown envelope containing the randomization and hand it to the principal investigator in numerical order. The principal investigator will then open the envelope to determine the group assignment for the patient, revealing which fentanyl nebulization dosage group (2 mcg/kg, 3 mcg/kg and 4 mcg/kg) the patient will be placed in. In this study, participants will be divided into three groups as previously described. We evaluate pain score at 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105 and 120 minutes after receiving nebulized fentanyl by a train research assistance who is blind from the treatment dosage.
