Spinal block causes paralysis of preganglionic sympathetic fibres, while ketamine induces activation of the sympathetic nervous system. Hypotension is a frequent complication during spinal anaesthesia and is associated with an increased risk of postoperative mortality. The aim of our study was to compare circulatory changes in patients who received either fentanyl or ketamine during spinal anaesthesia. Thirty patients (ASA I‐III) scheduled to undergo spinal anaesthesia for osteosynthesis of hip…

Ketamine 1 mg/kg i.v. given before spinal anesthesia resulted in greater hemodynamic stability in elderly patients undergoing transurethral resection compared with placebo, which resulted in a reduction in Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP).

Low-dose ketamine administration may confer thermoprotection during spinal anesthesia sedated by propofol infusion, and the core temperature linearly decreased over time.
Circulatory Responses to Propofol-Ketamine Combination Compared to Propofol Alone for Sedation During Spinal Anaesthesia
- Medicine, Biology

The propofol-ketamine combination confers hemodynamic stability during spinal anaesthesia as compared to Propofol alone, and sedation scores revealed no significant difference at the predetermined time intervals between the two groups.

Although the described additive effect of propofol and ketamine was not confirmed, the combination conferred hemodynamic stability during spinal anesthesia.
Impact of Sub-Anesthetic Dose of Ketamine on Post Spinal Hypotension in Cesarean Delivery
- MedicineThe Open Anesthesia Journal

This double-blinded randomized controlled study was conducted on 80 participating parturients who were ASA І, П term pregnant, and ketamine group received a sub-anesthetic dose of ketamine and control group received the same volume of normal saline IV bolus.
The role of vasopressors in the management of hypotension induced by spinal and epidural anaesthesia

In this review, the role of vasopressor agents is discussed and possible future management strategies are commented upon.
Comparison of the cardiopulmonary effects of anesthesia maintained by continuous infusion of ketamine and propofol with anesthesia maintained by inhalation of sevoflurane in goats undergoing magnetic resonance imaging.

Results suggest that ketamine-propofol total IV anesthesia in goats breathing 100% oxygen is practical and safe for performance of magnetic resonance imaging procedures.
A novel rat model of extremity trauma for prehospital pain management research
- MedicineThe journal of trauma and acute care surgery

The ET model includes long bone fracture and soft tissue injury, but no fixation surgery, mimicking prehospital ET, and produces acute, steady, and reproducible trauma-related pain behaviors, and is clinically relevant regarding the pain behaviors and established responses to common analgesics.

Glucose-free 0.75% bupivacaine did not give a reliable extent of anaesthesia for lower abdominal surgery and the group not given a fluid preload had significantly lower arterial pressures when anaesthesia extended above the T5 dermatome.

It is concluded that prophylactic ephedrine is desirable for spinal anaesthesia, especially in ASA III patients, after a large number of patients developed a maximal decrease in mean arterial pressure exceeding 20%.

It is concluded that the risk of fall in blood pressure during spinal anaesthesia may be predicted by the Boston Cardiac Risk Index and that patients who develop haemodynamic instability during spinal Anaesthesia have an increased risk of developing complications.

Unmedicated patients blocked by high subarachnoid anesthesia are able to hyperventilate and maintain normal blood gas tensions, and high epidural block without epinephrine produces changes similar to, but not as profound as, subaracheal anesthesia.
