{"title":"Current concepts in ketamine therapy in the emergency department.","authors":"Reuben J Strayer","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>Ketamine has been in use since its development as a dissociative anesthetic in the 1960s, but it was largely confined to the operating theater or austere environments until used by emergency physicians to facilitate painful procedures in children. As the unique effects of ketamine across its dose-response curve were understood, new applications emerged. In low doses, ketamine has found an important role alongside or instead of opioids in the management of severe pain, and methods to slow its absorption allow higher, more effective doses while attenuating psychoperceptual effects. Ketamine's unique anesthetic properties have inspired its use as an induction agent for intubation without a paralytic and for the rapid, safe control of dangerously agitated patients. Emerging uses for ketamine in acute care include treatment for status epilepticus and alcohol withdrawal syndrome; however, its most important rising indication may be as an emergency treatment of depression and suicidality.</p>","PeriodicalId":38728,"journal":{"name":"Emergency medicine practice","volume":"26 5","pages":"1-24"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140865955","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
