In this observational study, the investigators will monitor all patients with significant pain after any non-cardiac surgical intervention at the University of Alberta Hospital. After receiving an adequate dose of potent opioids (hydromorphone, morphine), the participants will receive up to 0,2-0,25 mg/kg IV ketamine bolus. In our center these boluses are given with 10-20mg increments. The adequate dose of opioids will be determined by the attending anesthesiologist, depending on what patients received intraoperatively and on their comorbidities. Pain scores will be assessed before and after administration of this drug. The incidence of any side effect after ketamine administration will be documented.
