The goal of this Randomized controlled double-blinded trial is to compare the addition of a ketamine infusion to placebo, when added to standard care in adult blunt trauma patients with multiple rib fractures. The main question it aims to answer are: • addition of low dose ketamine infusion (LDKI) decreases narcotic use • does LDKI impact pulmonary complications, readmission, or hospital length of stay Participants will receive usual standard of care with up to 48 hours of LDKI or placebo.
