Gabapentin and Ketamine for TAH.

Ok, that’s a lot of gabapentin, at least compared to our use. Ketamine dosing a bit on the low end as the authors point out.  However, no difference in sedation post-operatively!. Also, minimal differences in opioid side-effect profile despite decreased opioid consumption. Wished they would have had a fourth group combining ketamine and gabapentin.
