Ketamine-only intubation has been promoted by some as a safe approach to airway management in patients with anatomically or physiologically difficult airways. It turns out Dr. Jarvis has some thoughts on the subject. He uses a 2020 paper by Dr. Driver entitled “Success and Complications of the Ketamine-Only Intubation Method in the Emergency Department” to discuss this concept.
