Dear Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust,

I am wanting to know if Ketamine is being brought into use by frontline Band5/6 paramedics rather than just HART or Yorkshire Air Ambulance.

When is this coming Into effect for each area?

Is it already in use in West Yorkshire? Is so when was this added?

If you are adding this to a paramedics kit, why not releases it for all areas at the same time? Surely if 2 crews from different areas, eg South Yorkshire where Ketamine hasn’t been rolled out and West Yorkshire, if I am right where it has been rolled out, it is going to cause confusion as one crew can administer Ketamine and one can’t, are they any safe guards in place?

Is Penthrox being trialled? Is this something that is going to be trailed?

What analgesics are available to be used? Can you provide a list of what can be given and by what staff grade

Yours faithfully,
Tom Brachey
