Amazing video! Thank you for sharing.

Sweet! Nice work with the ketamine! I recently got a small fishbone from vallecula using topical sedation with nebulized lidocaine, topical lidocaine and a super chill/cooperative patient!

Jesse Q. -

1. Was anything other than ketamine used to avoid gag reflex in this patient?
2. When using only ketamine, how often is the gag maintained?

Thank you.

Jess Mason -

Just ketamine was used and there was no gag. Some patients don't have gag reflexes at baseline.

Jesse Q. -

Thanks! So, if this patient had a gag after giving ketamine, what would be an appropriate next step?
