Abstract

Five healthy human volunteers were anaesthetized on two separate occasions, 1 week apart, using a standard diazepam-ketamine induction followed by an infusion of ketamine for 1 h. Ten minutes after stopping the infusion, either 4-aminopyridine 0.3 mg kg--1 in saline or the same volume of saline alone was administered i.v. It was concluded that 4-aminopyridine enhanced dramatically the rate of recovery of the subjects to full consciousness and normal motor co-ordination when compared with the saline controls.
