Filter by:Studies have shown that excessive systemic inflammatory response and concomitant immunosuppression are the main cause of early death in patients with sepsis. Therefore, it is very important to reduce excessive inflammation and improve immunosuppression in the acute phase of sepsis. Clinical studies have shown that esketamine combined with propofol for sedation has been proven to be safe and effective for septic patients in the ICU due to its cardiovascular stability. Previous studies have demonstrated that esketamine has anti-inflammatory effects against depression and surgical stress. Our preliminary experimental studies have found that esketamine had strong anti-inflammatory effects in the acute phase of sepsis. However, it is not clear whether esketamine could reduce excessive inflammation and improve immunosuppression in septic patients primarily sedated with a continuous infusion of propofol. This intervention study is to investigate whether three consecutive days of intravenous esketamine infusions via infusion pump (0.07 mg/kg/h) could reduce excessive inflammation and improve immunosuppression in septic patients requiring mechanical ventilation in the ICU under sedation primarily with propofol.
A multicenter, randomized, open-label, active controlled pragmatic clinical trial that evaluates the safety and efficacy of S (+) -ketamine for postoperative acute pain in children in perioperative settings.
A multicenter, randomized, controlled, single blind clinical trial on the efficacy and safety of esmketamine injection in electroconvulsive therapy Objective to evaluate the efficacy and safety of esmketamine injection in the treatment of non convulsive electroconvulsive therapy Participants: Patients with depression receiving MECT The research drug was esketamine injection The study design was a multicenter, randomized, single blind, parallel controlled trial 25 mg / kg as the experimental group. The normal saline group was the control group (0.05 ml / kg). The sample size was estimated according to the main efficacy index (remission rate) of this study. It was assumed that the remission rate of the esketamine injection group was better than that of the control group. The parameters were set as test level α = 0.05, unilateral, β = 0.8, the cut-off value was 6%, the experimental group: the control group was 1:1, according to the results of previous clinical trials and combined with literature, the remission rate of the control group was 69%, 159 cases in each group, considering the 20% shedding rate, 198 cases in the experimental group and 198 cases in the control group were selected. 1. experimental group The patients were given intravenous injection of 0.25 mg / kg esketamine, 1.5 mg / kg propofol and 1 mg / kg succinylcholine in turn. After anesthesia, the patients were given electroconvulsive therapy 2. In the control group The patients were given 0.05ml/kg of normal saline, 1.5mg/kg of propofol and 1mg / kg of succinylcholine. After anesthesia, the patients were given electroconvulsive therapy Efficacy evaluation 1. Main efficacy indicators Remission rate of depressive symptoms after MECT treatment Remission was defined as two consecutive hdrs-24 scores ≤ 10 after receiving MECT Definition rate of remission rate: the proportion of patients with remission of depressive symptoms in this group
Herpes zoster (HZ) is an acute herpetic skin disease caused by the reactivation of the varicella-zoster virus (VZV) latent in the sensory ganglia. Postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) often occurs after herpes zoster heals and persists for a long time. At present, clinically anticonvulsants (such as gabapentin, pregabalin) and antidepressants (such as amitriptyline) are clinically first-line drugs for the treatment of PHN, which are not usually effective to treat PHN well, as well as to alleviate patients' bad mental symptoms. Esketamine, as a well-known N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor inhibitor, has both analgesic and antidepressant effects with extremely few incidence of respiratory depression, delirium, hallucinations, nausea and vomiting. Therefore, we hypothesize that esketamine could relieve PHN and Anxiety and depression-like symptoms symptoms in patients with PHN. This study intended to compare the efficacy of pregabalin, amitriptyline combined with esketamine therapy and pregabalin combined with amitriptyline therapy for alleviating PHN, and to further explore the feasibility and safety of esketamine in the treatment of PHN as well as underlying the mechanism of esketamine on the PHN.
Perioperative depressive symptoms (PDS) are common in population undergoing surgery, and this would be sharpened especially for complicated, high-risk major surgery. However, None of treatments could resolve this clinical problem during limited perioperative period. The remarkable effects of ketamine on treatment resistant depression have been verified by several clinical trials and the enantiomer S-ketamine (esketamine) showed similar antidepressant efficacy with better safety in recent studies. The efficacy and safety of esketamine administrated intra-operatively for PDS will be verified in this study. Other secondary outcomes such as anxiety, postoperative pain and psychiatric symptoms will also be investigated.
