Ketamine: Uses, Effects & Mechanism of Action w. Dr. Kelly Elmore, Mary Baldwin University

Dive deep into Ketamine, unraveling its pharmacokinetics and mechanism of action plus learn about its unique properties that make it a game-changer in managing pain & mental health disorders. By blocking NMDA receptors, ketamine effectively reduces excitatory signals in the central nervous system, providing relief where traditional treatments may falter. Its ability to maintain airway patency and promote bronchodilation is crucial for anesthesia, especially beneficial for patients with respiratory issues.

Under the expert guidance of Dr. Kelly Elmore from Mary Baldwin University, explore the versatile applications of ketamine treatment and learn about its impact on both medicine and mental health therapy.

Dr. Kelly Elmore is a practicing nurse anesthetist specializing in orthopedics and outpatient surgery, and she currently serves as assistant professor and director of research for the Nurse Anesthesiology program at Mary Baldwin University.

With over 10 years of experience, she previously provided anesthesia at a level one trauma center in Cincinnati and served as a core faculty for the University of Cincinnati's Nurse Anesthesia Program. Dr. Elmore holds a BA in bio-psychology two MSN degrees, and a DNP with interest in ambulatory anesthesia care for older adults and perioperative quality improvement.

With sincere gratitude, thank you so much, Dr. Elmore, for coming on the show today and sharing your wisdom with our soon to be future CRNAs.
