The recent autopsy report on the death of actor Matthew Perry revealed that he died of acute effects of ketamine. Ketamine is a dissociative drug that can provide relief from pain and depression, but it is also commonly used as a recreational drug. In the case of Perry, it seems that he was undergoing ketamine infusion therapy, a controlled way of treating chronic pain and depression. However, the report indicated that high levels of ketamine were found in his system, suggesting that he may have been recreationally taking the drug on top of his therapy.
Cardiologist and heart specialist Dr Sanjay Gupta analyses Matthew Perry's ketamine use in the lead up to his death.
One of the significant findings in the autopsy report was that Perry had coronary artery disease, which contributed to his death. Ketamine has cardiostimulatory effects, meaning it increases heart rate, blood pressure, and oxygen demand. In individuals with significant coronary disease, this can be dangerous as it places additional strain on the heart. It is unclear whether Perry's death was solely due to a heart attack that led to drowning or if other factors, such as delirium caused by high doses of ketamine, played a role.
The use of ketamine can have detrimental effects on the heart, especially when combined with other substances or underlying health conditions. Ketamine increases heart rate and blood pressure, which is generally not good for the heart. In the case of Matthew Perry, his decades-long struggle with addiction, including alcohol and drug abuse, likely contributed to his eventual death. The combination of mental health issues, lifestyle choices, and the use of substances like ketamine can lead to the development of heart disease and other health complications.
