Ketamine Infusions Upon arrival, you will be greeted by Michigan Progressive Health's office staff and asked to fill out a short questionnaire. The doctor will perform a physical exam. The doctor will start an IV and place you on monitors. The staff will help you get comfortable and then begin the infusion. During your infusion you will have your blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen level, and breathing monitored.  Typically the infusion lasts one hour, and staff monitors you for 15 to 30 minutes after the infusion. Treatment Regimen Treatment-Resistant Depression and mood disorders are treated with 6-8 treatments over 3-4 weeks during the initiation phase. The maintenance period consists of "boosters," which are typically a single treatment. The first booster is typically scheduled 2-3 weeks after your last initiation infusion. After that, every patient varies, but the average length between boosters is 6-8 weeks. Migraines are typically treated with one to two treatments during initiation. Most migraine patients need one infusion every 8-12 weeks for maintenance. Chronic pain infusions are several hours long for several days in a row. The doctor works closely with each patient to tailor an individual schedule that will be most successful. Maintenance infusions for chronic pain are every 2-3 months.
