Historically, when it came to brain injury, ketamine had a bad rap. Much of that dogma was dispelled in the last 20 years, and ketamine is now frequently used as an induction agent in acute brain injury, especially traumatic brain injury, partially due to the favorable effects on haemodynamics.

However a new application of ketamine is now being explored - whether ketamine may be able to reduce secondary brain injury.

In this talk Toby Jeffcote initially takes us through all the sedatives currently used in brain injury and the evidence to support their use. He then covers the history of ketamine use and the background to new research in use as a therapeutic agent.

This podcast was recorded at the Brain Symposium which took place in March 2023. For more talks and content like this, visit neuroresus.com or subscribe to be notified of new podcast releases via email.
