Drug Overdose Deaths Data • The drug overdose data was collected from the Medical Examiner’s Offices at the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and Cobb, DeKalb, Fulton and Gwinnett counties from 2010 to 2013. • The data does not include all individuals from County Coroner’s Offices. Only those deaths referred to the Medical Examiner’s Offices. • The data did not include toxicity levels, so if multiple drugs were identified, we cannot attribute death to one drug. Treatment Episode Data Set • The data is collected by the Georgia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities (DBHDD) for the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). • The data is for only criminal justice initiated treatment episodes Georgia Department of Corrections Data •Had a variable that indicated Drug Possession or Drug Sales •Had another variable that better described the crime and included the drug •Problem was that we wanted to do a cross-tabulation of drug by crime type but the information was in the same variable. Georgia Department of Corrections Data •Solved by Cleaning the data in Excel •Filtered to see common phrases •Searched and removed unwanted words like “of” •Searched the common phrases and replaced them with an added comma •Then text to columns and we have separated the drug from primary offense Georgia Department of Corrections Data Drug by Primary Offense from 2009-2013 POSSESSION WITH INTENT SALE AND Drug Type MANUFACTURE POSSESSION TRAFFICING OTHER Totals TO DISTRIBUTION DISTRIBUTE COCAINE 0 3964 1615 2753 1004 0 9336 MARIJUANA 0 449 2909 1349 258 0 4965 METH -

  • Ketamine Homogeneous Enzyme Immunoassay (HEIA™)
    Ketamine Homogeneous Enzyme Immunoassay (HEIA™) Exclusively from Immunalysis Formula: C13H16CINO Semi-Quantitative or Qualitative Testing Systematic Name: (RS)- 2- (2- chlorophenyl)- 2- (methylamino)cyclohexanone Accurate and reliable Brand Names: Ketanest®, Ketaset®, Ketalar® Ready to use About Ketamine: Ketamine is an anesthetic agent used in the United States since 1972 for veterinary and pediatric medicine. It is also used in the treatment of depression and postoperative pain management. However, in recent years it has gained popularity as a street drug used at clubs and raves due to its hallucinogenic effects. Administration: Oral; intravenous; intramuscular; insufflation Elimination: Ketamine metabolizes by N-demethylation to Norketamine and further dehydrogenates to Dehydronorketamine. After 72 hours of a single dose, 2.3% of Ketamine is unchanged, 1.6% is Norketamine, 16.2% is Dehydronorketamine, and 80% is hydroxylated derivatives of Ketamine.1,2 Abuse Potential: An overdose can cause unconsciousness and dangerously slowed breathing. 1) R.

ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: Non-competitive N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonists mimic schizophrenia symptoms and produce immediate NMDA receptor antagonists and persistent antidepressant effects. We investigated the effects of ketamine and phencyclidine (PCP) onthalamo- Thalamo-cortical networks cortical network activity in awake, freely-moving male Wistar rats to gain new insight into the neuronal populations Single unit recordings and brain circuits involved in the effects of NMDA-R antagonists.
