Alpha-Amino-3-Hydroxy-5-Methyl-4- Isoxazole Propionic Acid Receptor Components of the Anti-Depressant Ketamine Response
The proposed study will assess the combined effect of perampanel and ketamine on the anti-depressant response in individuals with treatment resistant depression. The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that stimulation of Alpha-Amino-3-Hydroxy-5-Methyl-4- Isoxazole Propionic Acid receptors (AMPAR) is critical to the anti-depressant response of ketamine.
Study of the Neural Circuits Underlying the Negative Emotional Bias of Depressive Disorders and Their Response to Ketamine
Major depressive disorder is the leading cause of disability worldwide, affecting up to 300 million people each year, and one in five people will experience depression at least once in their lives. Emotional bias is an essential component of characterized depressive episodes, leading depressed patients to attribute a more negative …
The Efficacy and Safety of Short Term S-ketamine Infusion as an Adjunctive Therapy in Patients With Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia is a chronic pain syndrome where current medications have limited efficacy and a slow onset of action. Esketamine shows potential as a rapid-acting analgesic, but previous low-dose studies failed to demonstrate long-term benefits. The efficacy of higher-dose ESK as an adjunctive therapy when standard treatments are insufficient remains unclear.
ESKetamine Low-dose vs Ketamine Low-dose for Severe Acute Pain in Emergency Units, Comparison of PsychodyslEptic Effects
Almost 30% of painful patients in emergency departments (ED) describe their pain as severe (i.e. a Verbal Numerical Rating Score VNRS ≥ 6 on a scale ranging from 0 to 10). The management of such severe pain needs to be rapid and safe, and for this purpose intravenous (IV) morphine …
Mini-dose Dexmedetomidine-Esketamine Infusion and Perioperative Sleep Quality
Sleep disturbances are prevalent in older patients with osteoarthrosis or fracture who are scheduled for knee or hip replacement surgery. The occurrence of sleep disturbances is associated with worse outcomes including increased risk of delirium and cardiac events, and worsened functional recovery. Dexmedetomidine is a highly selective α2-adrenergic agonist with …
Effect of Subanesthetic Dose of Esketamine on Sleep Quality
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore whether subanesthetic doses of esketamine can improve the sleep quality of patients undergoing modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer. In this study, 184 people are expected to participate from admission to three days after surgery. The process requires participants to cooperate …
Esketamine in Microelectrode Recording-guided Subthalamic Deep-Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease
Under regional anesthesia, subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) has proven to be an effective therapeutic approach for improving motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease. However, a significant portion of Parkinson's disease (PD) patients is unable to cooperate with the surgery, necessitating the use of awake sedation. Nevertheless, the administration of …
Comparison of Postoperative Pain Score Between Perioperative Intravenous Ketamine and Placebo in Patients Undergoing Unilateral Total Knee Arthroplasty Under General Anesthesia
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare postoperative pain score between perioperative intravenous ketamine and placebo in patients undergoing unilateral total knee arthroplasty under general anesthesia. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: Can perioperative intravenous ketamine reduce postoperative pain score during rest and movement at 0, …
Analgesic Efficacy of Intravenous Ketamine as a Continuous Infusion vs PCA in the Management of Acute Postoperative Pain in Major Orthopedic Surgery.
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether treating pain after surgery with ketamine is more effective when administered intravenously as a continuous infusion or through a patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) pump. This study focuses on adult volunteers following major orthopedic surgery. We have two main questions to address: …
Effect of Esketamine on Conscious State in Patients With pDoC
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effect of intraoperative infusion of subanesthetic dose of esketamine on conscious status in patients with prolonged disorders of consciousness under sevoflurane anesthesia. Participants will be patients with prolonged disorders of consciousness undergoing surgery with general anesthesia at Beijing Tiantan …
