However, the optimal effective dose has not yet been determined. The aim of this study was to determine the median effective dose (ED) and 95% effective dose (ED) of esketamine compounded with propofol for painless hysteroscopy.

The aim of this retrospective clinical study was to compare the combinations of ketamine/diazepam (KD group) and tiletamine/zolazepam (TZ group) for the induction of general anaesthesia in horses undergoing elective surgery. The data from the clinical and the anaesthetic records of 138 horses from 2021 to 2023 were evaluated, and the horses were divided in two groups: KD ( = 60) and TZ ( = 72). The horses were premedicated with romifidine and methadone IV; anaesthesia was induced with ketamine/diazepam for the KD group and tiletamine/zolazepam for the TZ group and was maintained with isoflurane and a constant rate infusion of romifidine.

Compromised GABA-mediated inhibition is a defining feature of SE, and many current therapies are benzodiazepines, which are allosteric modulators of GABA-A receptors. Many patients with medically refractory epilepsy are at risk for SE.
