We have read with careful attention the article, ''Methoxyflurane Versus Standard of Care for Acute Trauma-Related Pain in the Emergency Setting: Protocol for a Randomised, Controlled Study in Italy'' by Fabbri et al. [1].The authors present MEDITA (Methoxyflurane in Emergency Department in ITAly), a Phase IIIb, prospective, randomised, active-controlled, parallel-group, open-label, multicentre trial.We agree with the authors that there is a need for better evidence for the use of methoxyflurane in pain management in the emergency department.
