A case series and literature review	2024	6	.pdf	application/pdf	5460	312	49	As reported by Serra et al.,53 ketamine (IV: 0.1-0.3 mg/kg bolus; 0.1-0.3 mg/kg/h via con- tinuous infusion) may have a role in the management of pain unre- sponsive to opioids, in neuropathic pain, in opioid-induced hyper- algesia, and could also have a future role in palliative sedation in the EoL.54 Ketamine shows also potential as a bronchodilator for pediatric patients with acute asthma exacerbation and has emerged as a treatment option for pediatric patients with acute asthma exacerba- tion who do not respond to standard therapy as a temporizing measure to prevent mechanical ventilation.55,56 In the review by Garner et al.,57 the authors outline strategies for the assessment and management of patients with acute life-threatening asthma focus- ing on those requiring admission to the ICU and they suggest using ketamine or propofol as sedative agents for non-invasive mechan- ical ventilation because of their potential bronchodilation proper- ties.
