Ketamina para depresión/Ketamine and depression

Ketamina oral para tratamiento rápido de la depresión y ansiedad en pacientes que reciben manejo en hospicios


Oral ketamine for the rapid treatment of depression and anxiety in patients receiving hospice care.
Irwin SA, Iglewicz A.
Institute for Palliative Medicine at San Diego Hospice, Palliative Care Psychiatry, San Diego, California 92103, USA. sirwin@sdhospice.org
J Palliat Med. 2010 Jul;13(7):903-8. doi: 10.1089/jpm.2010.9808.
Abstract
Depression is prevalent and undertreated in patients receiving hospice care. Standard antidepressants do not work rapidly or often enough to benefit most of these patients. Here, two cases are reported in which a single oral dose of ketamine provided rapid and moderately sustained symptom relief for both depression and anxiety. In addition, no adverse effects were noted. Further investigation with randomized, controlled clinical trials is necessary to firmly establish the effectiveness of oral ketamine for the treatment of depression and anxiety in patients receiving hospice care. Ketamine may be a promising safe, effective, and cost-effective rapid treatment for depression and anxiety in this population.

El bloqueo del receptor NMDA en reposo desencadena respuestas antidepresivas conductuales rápidas
NMDA receptor blockade at rest triggers rapid behavioural antidepressant responses.

Abstract
Clinical studies consistently demonstrate that a single sub-psychomimetic dose of ketamine, an ionotropic glutamatergic NMDAR (N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor) antagonist, produces fast-acting antidepressant responses in patients suffering from major depressive disorder, although the underlying mechanism is unclear. Depressed patients report the alleviation of major depressive disorder symptoms within two hours of a single, low-dose intravenous infusion of ketamine, with effects lasting up to two weeks, unlike traditional antidepressants (serotonin re-uptake inhibitors), which take weeks to reach efficacy. This delay is a major drawback to current therapies for major depressive disorder and faster-acting antidepressants are needed, particularly for suicide-risk patients. The ability of ketamine to produce rapidly acting, long-lasting antidepressant responses in depressed patients provides a unique opportunity to investigate underlying cellular mechanisms. Here we show that ketamine and other NMDAR antagonists produce fast-acting behavioural antidepressant-like effects in mouse models, and that these effects depend on the rapid synthesis of brain-derived neurotrophic factor. We find that the ketamine-mediated blockade of NMDAR at rest deactivates eukaryotic elongation factor 2 (eEF2) kinase (also called CaMKIII), resulting in reduced eEF2 phosphorylation and de-suppression of translation of brain-derived neurotrophic factor. Furthermore, we find that inhibitors of eEF2 kinase induce fast-acting behavioural antidepressant-like effects. Our findings indicate that the regulation of protein synthesis by spontaneous neurotransmission may serve as a viable therapeutic target for the development of fast-acting antidepressants.

Abordajes innovadores para el manejo de la depresión refractaria. La historia de la ketamina


Innovative approaches to treatment - refractory depression: The ketamine story.
Rao TS, Andrade C.
Indian J Psychiatry. 2010 Apr;52(2):97-9. doi: 10.4103/0019-5545.64573.


Antidepressant drugs have traditionally addressed the monoamine triumvirate: serotonin, noradrenaline, and dopamine. There have been predominantly two mechanisms recruited in drug action - inhibition of monoamine reuptake and inhibition of intravesicular monoamine catabolism. Tianeptine, which increases the synaptic reuptake of serotonin, and mirtazapine, which blocks alpha-2 adrenergic autoreceptors and heteroreceptors, are examples of the very few drugs which have other mechanisms of action. Yet, even these two antidepressants target the traditional neurotransmitters in psychiatry

Delayed arousal.

Division of Neurosurgical Anesthesiology, Department of Anesthesiology, Columbia University, New York, NY 10032, USA. zh2114@columbia.edu
Anesthesiol Clin. 2009 Sep;27(3):429-50. doi: 10.1016/j.anclin.2009.07.007.
Abstract
Elderly patients have medical and psychological problems affecting all major organ systems. These problems may alter the pharmacokinetics and/or pharmacodynamics of medications, or expose previous neurologic deficits simply as a result of sedation. Delayed arousal, therefore, may arise from structural problems that are pre-existent or new, or metabolic or functional disorders such as convulsive or nonconvulsive seizures. Determining the cause of delayed arousal may require clinical, chemical, and structural tests. Structural problems that impair consciousness arise from a small number of focal lesions to specific areas of the central nervous system, or from pathology affecting the cerebrum. In general, focal or multifocal lesions can be identified by computerized tomography, or diffusion-weighted imaging. An algorithm is presented that outlines a workup for an elderly patient with delayed arousal.

Levobupivacaína/Levobupivacaine

Levobupivacaína para el tratamiento de dolor postoperatorio en la circuncisión: bloqueo caudal o dorsal del pene


Levobupivacaine for postoperative pain management in circumcision: caudal blocks or dorsal penile nerve block.

Agri. 2012 Oct;24(4):180-6. doi: 10.5505/agri.2012.21931.
Abstract
OBJECTIVES: In this study, we evaluated the analgesic efficacy and adverse effect profile of levobupivacaine in caudal and DPNB in postcircumcision pediatric patients. METHODS: Sixty boys between 2-10 years of age undergoing circumcision were enrolled. The patients were divided into two groups: Group C (n=30) and Group P (n=30) were applied caudal block or dorsal penile nerve block (DPNB), respectively. Blocks were performed before surgery as a supplement to general anesthesia with 1 mL kg(-1) 0.25% levobupivacaine. Postoperative pain and sedation scores were assessed on the 10th and 30th minutes, and hours 1-6. The number of pain free patients in the first 6 hours, the duration of analgesia, time to first analgesic administration, walking, micturition, and total paracetamol demands, and length of stay were recorded. RESULTS: Demographic data were similar between groups. The number of children who spent the first 6 hours pain-free was larger in Group C than Group P (p=0.0001). The time to first analgesic (p=0.000033) and walking (p=0.004) were longer in Group C. There were 14 patients with motor block in Group C (p=0.00007). In view of AUC, FPRS, OPS and MPOPS were significantly better in Group C on the first postoperative 6 hours. CONCLUSION: Caudal block done using levobupivacaine for postoperative pain management in circumcision is more successful than penile block, however there is a significant delay in time to first walking and as might be expected there is an increased risk of motor block.

Abstract
We performed a prospective, double-blinded study in 20 patients undergoing gynecologic surgery with lower abdominal incision, to investigate characteristics of intrathecal hyperbaric levobupivacaine compared with isobaric levobupivacaine. We randomly assigned them to receive 3 ml of either isobaric or hyperbaric 0.42% levobupivacaine intrathecally We found that hyperbaric levobupivacaine, compared with isobaric levobupivacaine, spread faster to T10 level (2.8 ± 1.1 versus 6.6 ± 4.7 minutes, P = 0.039), reached higher sensory block levels at 5 and 15 minutes after injection (T8 versus L1, P = 0.011, and T4 versus T7, P = 0.027, resp.), and had a higher peak level (T4 versus T8, P = 0.040). Isobaric levobupivacaine caused a wider range of peak levels (L1 to C8) compared with hyperbaric form (T7 to T2). The level of T4 or higher reached 90% in the hyperbaric group compared with 20% in the isobaric group (P = 0.005). Our results suggest that hyperbaric levobupivacaine was more predictable for sensory block level and more effective for surgical procedures with lower abdominal approach. Hyperbaric levobupivacaine seems to be suitable, but the optimal dosage needs further investigation.
