Treatment
Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
The person who determines if a subject is eligible for inclusion will contact an unblinded worker in the emergency department who will perform randomisation into one of three groups via an internet random number generator (https://randomiser.org/form.htm). This worker will then prepare medications so that they appear identical for administration in a blinded fashion by researchers
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
random number generator (http://www.randomizer.org/form.htm) will be used for randomisation
Masking / blinding
Blinded (masking used)
