Is Prehospital Ketamine Associated With a Change in the Prognosis of PTSD?

Abstract: Introduction Ketamine is an alternative to opioids for prehospital analgesia following serious combat injury. Limited research has examined prehospital ketamine use, associated injuries including traumatic brain injury (TBI) and PTSD outcomes following serious combat injury. Materials and Methods We randomly selected 398 U.S. service members from the Expeditionary Medical Encounter Database who sustained serious combat injuri… Show more

“…See Figure 3 for routes of administration. Two chart reviews 72 , 74 combined approaches (IM-IV, 4%; IN-IV, 4%). Of import, all open-label and randomized trials employed ketamine infusions, delivered at 0.5 mg/kg over 40 min, apart from one study 77 administering high-dose ketamine (0.83–4.13 mg/kg) infused over 1 h. With IV administration used most consistently, there is great prospect for replicability in future work to identify standard approaches that maximize patient benefit.…”

There are few clinical studies investigating the efficacy of (R,S)-ketamine on fear behavior following TBI, as most studies were focused on successfully dispelling the myth that it increased intracranial pressure [52].…”

“…One of the major challenges in developing therapeutics for TBI is overcoming the blood-brain barrier (BBB) while delivering drugs [50]. However, ( R,S )-ketamine is known to effectively cross the BBB because of its lipophilic nature [51]. There are few clinical studies investigating the efficacy of ( R,S )-ketamine on fear behavior following TBI, as most studies were focused on successfully dispelling the myth that it increased intracranial pressure [52].…”
