Phase changes induced by ketamine in the vertical vestibulo-ocular reflex in the rabbit.

M Favilla, B Ghelarducci, A La Noce, A Starita.   

Abstract

The effect of ketamine has been tested on the phase of the vertical vestibulo-ocular reflex of rabbits sinusoidally oscillated at various frequencies. A significant phase lag, predominantly affecting the macular component of the reflex, was observed. This action resembles that induced by Nembutal in the same preparation. A specific action of ketamine on synaptic transmission is suggested. Erroneous phase relationship between natural stimuli responses can be obtained in experiments employing ketamine.
