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.
Determination of ED50 and ED95 With Clinical Efficacy of Intranasal Dexmedetomidine Combined With Esketamine for Preoperative Sedation in Pediatric General Anesthesia
For pediatric patients undergoing general anesthesia, poor anesthesia induction compliance often has adverse effects on individual behavior in the early postoperative period. Dexmedetomidine can reduce the cardiovascular responses and postoperative mental adverse reactions caused by esketamine anesthesia induction [6]. This study aims to explore the ED50 and ED95 and clinical …
Evaluation of Ketamine/Midazolam Deep Sedation vs. Fentanyl/Midazolam Moderate Sedation for Image-Guided Percutaneous Procedures in Interventional Radiology
This study aims to reduce pain during interventional radiology (IR) procedures, making the experience better for patients. Typically, doctors use medications like fentanyl and midazolam for sedation. This research will focus on patients undergoing biopsies and drainage procedures, often associated with significant discomfort. Patients will be randomly assigned to receive …
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, …
General Anesthesia Versus Sedation By Dexmedetomidine and Ketamine With Local Infiltration for Percutaneous Transcatheter Closure of Atrial Septal Defect in Pediatric Patients
The aim of the present study is to compare between general anesthesia versus sedation with dexmedetomidine and ketamine with local infilteration at the catheter insertion site in pediatric patients undergoing transcutaneous closure of atrial septal defect on hemodynamic changes.
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: …
