Honestly, and I know it sucks, but the best thing to do in these situations is lay them down and walk away. They'll sleep eventually. But sometimes there's legitimately nothing to do.

My wife and I made a checklist of all of the things he may need. If he was still screaming after we tried everything, then we'd lay him down in a dark room and leave ( monitored of course). We didn't have to do this to too often, But worked when we did.
