- Ketamine is a potent sedative and general anesthetic that has been under scrutiny ever since Aurora paramedics injected Elijah McClain with a heavy dose last year before his death in police custody.
Forced medication of any kind without the persons consent should be treated as treason
Ketamine is fun as fuck fym?
@@lincolnhaldorsen5649not for everyone though, some people have legit bad trip on it if it's not done correctly.
Getting ketamine in a situation like this would be horrible, but ketamine is amazing and can treat a lot of mental disorders and obviously can help big time with surgery
I'm doing it now for depression. I get 150 mgs. Idk if that's a high dose but OMG it is extremely intense. Initially I thought it was a sedating med but I was tripping with crazy visuals I couldn't sleep 😂 I hope it works
hes the only one to stay in the Quantum Realm literally
This is terrifying
As a paramedic this drugs onset is seconds....not minutes. Our dose is 4mg/kg IM and 2mg/kg IV for excited delirium or agitation with violence. We use antipsychotics for just agitation without violence.
Ketamine does not cause respiratory depression. This is not an opioid. 0.1 to 0.8mg per kilogram is the dosage used for pain management dosed IM or IV for an infusion. Ketamine is simular to PCP but at a much lower potency.
You dont do ketamine like this without respiratory team. This is crazy.
I see this being 100% fine to use very often on people, but these people giving it needs to know there dosages before they can even use this on people this is ridiculous
I looked up what a fatal overdose of ketamine would be and one website said 4200mg shpuld be fatal to a 150lb male. It's weird that the kid died, 500mg is still a massive dose though.
@@bickyboo7789 probably didnt secure his airway,or he had a slight hypersensitivity and the large dose fucked him up
@@ursamajor6347 it could have interacted with what was in his system. Ketamine itself is extremely useful drug used to treatment depression, PTSD, and chronic pain. It’s an infusion therapy. It’s helped so many others and I’m still in the middle of my infusions.
The problems here is they didn’t dose it to his weight (that should not have caused an OD since they weren’t off that much but still)..what was in his system, didn’t realize it’s used for delirium, it’s supposed to be an infusion not an injection (although low dose can be). Not sure why they didn’t use another sedative. Ketamine shouldn’t be demonized…it looks like it was a series of mistake after mistake that led to this man’s passing.
@@candirenee74 It doesn't matter what they use anything that is super fast acting and inject able is absolute gold for an emergency responder, it saves lives. They use it because its safer than other alternative sedatives in terms of overdose potential and interactions with other drugs...
I REALLY dont get how they use it as an anesthetic or sedative though because I've done extremely high doses many times and sleep was the last thing that was ever on my mind
I really will never understand the idea that ketamine is good for sedation or sleep, it severely effects my ability to to sleep in low to medium doses I've used practically every dose and delivery method, sure, i might not be able to move or speak and all i can feel is my teeth which feel like they are disolving electrically, most of my time im just trying not to completely dissintergrate. I cant sleep until the stuff is well out of my system dosing it is a good way to keep me up all night
From treating depression to helping manage alcohol addiction," magic mushrooms and the microdosing caps have many potential benefits description to order for your well treated psilocybin mushrooms and other psychedelic,they provide in town/ local and overseas delivery (All discreet)-

Why do some medics completely screw this up for everyone? Come on this is ridiculous. I always get weight estimate and when I can I ALWAYS try to ASK weight prior to giving meds. Absolutely ridiculous.
I’m 350 pounds and the most I’ve ever been given was 40mg through the IV and wow !!
Well if you're sedated you can't hurt yourself or anyone else. The guy was obviously off his rocker
I recommend you hit up this legit plug they're very reliable ship to any location they've got Adderall shrooms ketamine dmt,lsd,spores,microdose and other psychedelic stuffs!!!

He wasn’t acting like he had excited delirium. He was calmly asking to leave because he didn’t want police to put their hands on him. If he had excited delirium he would be been talking nonsense and thrashing around
Paramedics should step back and take a look at what their role is. Intervening in a police arrest with sedatives is unconscionable. They're wielding a power that they're not responsible for
This comment makes no sense at all….excited delirium we will treat with Ketamine…
Yeah wtf and why use ketamine? Ativan injection would work much better and with less side effects, unless it's suspected that they're on a downer.
@@stevensharpe3182 wouldn't Ativan with an antipsychotic work better? Thats what they give to people when they're overdosing and/or in psychosis from stimulants like cocaine or methamphetamine. It wouldn't be trippy as fuck like ketamine, and the antipsychotic shuts down the dopamine receptors which are usually a big factor for excited delirium or psychosis.
@@stevensharpe3182 and this wasn’t excited delirium. If you are familiar with excited delirium, you would know that diagnosis is controversial anyway, and is used by LE more than healthcare providers
@@Tamara-id1pe protocols say I do know what I’m talking about 👍🏻 4mg/kg any questions you can direct to my medical director
Takes an awful lot of Ketamine to kill you n I mean a lot hence why it’s used on battle fields because it actually stimulates your breathing/blood pressure and BPM all the things you want as opposed to opioid’s which do the opposite, give to little though and they will start to trip so give a good 250mg to 500mg dose.
And trust me from my own experiments I have taken more than 7000mg of the stuff over an 8 hour period through a cannula I put in myself to stop me messing up my veins whilst I was numb from the Ketamine, it’s a very very very safe drug.
lol no they will jast trip even harder 100% and if youre scared shitless of it the last thing you will be doing is actually relaxing and sleeping
What are medica supposed to do? Here sir step right into this weight scale
You have desperate fields commenting on ketamine and excited delirium ems, emergency medicine and forensic pathology that uses it in different ways putting it on a death certificate isnt right
These people are none experts commenting on a tipic they know nothing about
These people are just plain incompetent
that was a k HOLE abysss
lucky bastard
500mg!!!!!!!! That's unconscious like in an operation for anyone under 300lbs. A k-hole near death experience is 200mg for a 200lb person! Good god.😢
