I am sure this should have read:-
"anaesthetists rarely practice sedation using Ketamine. It's use should be
restricted to Emergency Physicians trained in its use"
Another example that it is time for the speciality to stand up and state
that there are things in which we hold the expertise in. It is not necessary
to ask permission from another speciality first.
