Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study was to explore the preventive effect of esketamine on postpartum depression (PPD) in cesarean section, and to evaluate the safety of the drug

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Studies have shown that esketamine can treat clinical refractory depression, the drug takes effect quickly, can quickly eliminate the patient's suicide intention, low-dose maintenance treatment is conducive to the stability of the patient's condition, and less adverse reactions, is the current hot spot of antidepressant drug research. Esketamine has been approved by FDA for the treatment of refractory and suicidal depression, but can it effectively prevent and treat postpartum depression? It is not clear. Based on this, this study aims to explore the preventive effect of prophylactic administration of esketamine on postpartum depression in cesarean section, and evaluate the safety of the drug.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

The incidence of PPD: the EPDS scale was assessed by face-to-face or telephone interview of the Puerpera 7 d, 30 d, 60 d and 90 d after delivery. EPDS score ≥ 10 was defined as antenatal depression or postpartum emotional disorder.
Primary Study Purpose

PREVENTION

Blinding Strategy

QUADRUPLE

Participants Caregivers Investigators Outcome Assessors
1. Assign a researcher to determine the order of patients and coordinate the relationship between researchers;
2. For each patient, an anesthesiologist was assigned to manage anesthesia and collect intraoperative data;
3. A researcher who was not aware of the protocol was assigned to conduct preoperative evaluation and postoperative follow-up, and received training on evaluation methods before the study.
