Abstrakt: |
Military health care providers located in field environments frequently face situations in which procedural sedation and analgesia are necessary, without the advantage of sophisticated monitoring equipment. Ketamine is a unique agent that can be administered either intravenously or intramuscularly to produce predictable and profound analgesia, with an exceptional safety profile. We review the issues unique to ketamine and provide a practical guide for the use of ketamine for adult and pediatric patients in a field environment. |
