Hello,
I am looking for the most recent article published by Dr. Schwartzman about his in paitient ketamine treatment. I just talked to him on the phone and he wants me to come to Philly and talk with him about it. He said he just had this article published last month. Is there anyone that read the article and knows if it is published on line anywhere? Thanks, Sherrie |

Hello Momof4,
Thanks, for the inforation on the site. I will check it out. Have you tried the ketamine out patient? I did that a couple years ago with Dr. S. It was stopped after the 4th day. I need more than can be given during the out patient treatment. I took my MP3 player to listen to while the treatment was going on. Everyone has different reactions to medications. For me the room would not stop spinning. My dreams seemed very real. When the four hour infusion was finished I was fine. I wasn't tiered and I was able to walk around and site see while in Philly. For me it didn't help my RSDS/CRPS. However, there were people there for boosters that had been pain free for months. Let me know what your ortho says about the article. I had to have a chipped bone removed from my ankle last June. My ortho talked to Dr. S before he agreed to do the surgery. After the surgery they did a four hour ketemine infustion to keep my RSD from flaring. Dr S's out patient ketamine didn't work for me. However, he is a great resource for information for my doctors in OH. I have even called him with questions and more times than not he personally returns the call a couple of times it has been his nurse. |

I am almost certain that Sherrie may be loking for the article that FMichael posted for us a month or so ago that was in regards to Dr. S.'s double blind study on ketamine. It was published in Pain Magazine very recently. I think the paper referred to above, "The Complex History..." has been around for well more than a month. To find FMichael's article perhaps you could do a search on his name and then review all of his postings retroactively until that one comes up. XOXO Sandy |

Hello,
I think the article he was referring to was called "Outpatient intravenous ketamine for the treatment of complex regional pain syndrome: A double-blind placebo controlled study" and dated I believe around 8/09. I believe it was in a Pain magazine. Try www.elsevier.com/locate/pain and look under august 2009 for the article named above. Let me see if I can find it for you. kathy d |

Kathy -
Unfortunately, that's an article re out-patient treatment. However, I assume it's the one he was referring to with Sherrie, where nothing else under his name, remotely relavent and published in the last few months pops up on PubMed. There is, however, the possibility that another article has yet to be indexed. Regarding in-patient ketamine treatment, the latest article I have is Sigtermans MJ, van Hilten JJ, Bauer MC, Arbous MS, Marinus J, Sarton EY, Dahan A, Ketamine produces effective and long-term pain relief in patients with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome Type 1, Pain 2009 Oct;145(3):304-11. Epub 2009 Jul 14. Department of Anesthesiology, Leiden University Medical Center, P.O. Box 9600, 2300 RC Leiden, The Netherlands. Comment in: Pain 2009 Oct;145(3):271-2. Abstracthttp://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez And while PubMed shows a comment to the article, apparently concurrent with its publication, it didn't come from Dr. Schwartzman: Borsook D, Ketamine and chronic pain--going the distance, Pain 2009 Oct;145(3):271-2. Epub 2009 Jul 1.Indeed, a PubMed search for "P.A.I.N. Group" reveals a total of 16 articles, none of which are even co-authored by Dr. Schwartzman. That said, a friend sent me a copy of Sigtermans MJ, et al, Ketamine produces effective and long-term pain relief in patients with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome Type 1, Pain 2009 Oct. just the other day, but it's too large to post here. If anyone wants a copy, just drop me a PM with your email address and it will be on its way. Mike |

Mike - I can't figure out how to send you a message on here. Do you have to be online for me to do that? I have been trying to get a copy of that article as well.

We have a new policy of not allowing PMs by new members for a short probationary time frame. This was done to block a rash of international spammers who were trying to get to our members.
After a few posts, you will have the PM function open to you.
