The most helpful condition of dissociative anesthesia is created by ketamine. A person who takes ketamine gets in to a trance-like state immediately with nystagmus and open eyes. Not only is he extremely analgesic but also he is unconscious and amnesic. The head of the user can be in any place and his airways are amazingly maintained.
No other anesthesia is better than ketamine is these things. Ketamine is one amazing drug that has made the impossible surgeries possible. This drug is particularly of importance when the patients have to recuperate in their own beds instead of being taken to the recovery ward. This drug is considered to be the safe anesthetic and the safest if you do not have enough knowledge about anesthetics.
Patients usually have agreeable effects of ketamine if it is taken in a peaceful surrounding and administered by an experienced person. Oxygen or intubation is generally not required when using ketamine.
This drug does not produce respiratory depression or hypotension and as a result, it can be used in urgent situations where the patients have suffered shock ranging from little to moderate level.
Ketamine is considered as the safest anesthetic in almost all the urgent situations as it has healing properties. When the drug is given at various dissimilar amounts then the patients can achieve different useful effects. Ketamine n small amounts acts as a powerful analgesic. This in combination with narcotics will be helpful in areas with inadequate resources.
