Physicians from Australia, Pennsylvania and Arizona report the results of 33 patients who underwent Ketamine treatment for CRPS. 76% of the patients achieved complete pain relief. 18% of the patients obtained partial relief and 6% experienced no relief of their pain. Following the first course of therapy, 54% remained pain free for greater than three months. 31% remained pain free for greater than six months. After the second treatment, 58% of the remaining patients had relief for greater than one year while 33% remained pain free for greater than three years.
