Characterizing ketamine-induced dissociation using human intracranial neurophysiology: brain dynamics, network activity, and interactions with propofol
bioRxiv Preprint Server May 2, 2022 Fangyun Tian, Laura D. Lewis, David W. Zhou et al. preprint
Subanesthetic doses of ketamine produce rapid and sustained anti-depressant effects in patients with treatment-resistant depression. Unfortunately, the usefulness of ketamine as a treatment is limited by its potential for abuse because of psychotropic side effects such as dissociation. Understanding the brain dynamics and the neural circuits involved in ketamine’s effects could lend insight...
