Brief Summary

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

Patients undergoing gynecological surgery are at high risk of developing postoperative sleep disorders. Intraoperative opioid use is detrimental to the patient's postoperative recovery of gastrointestinal function. Esketamine has sedative, hypnotic, analgesic, inflammatory response suppression, and antidepressant effects. Its hypnotic mechanism may be related to its rapid blockade of NMDA receptors and hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated cation channels. Also can reduce the application of perioperative opioids, which in turn promotes the recovery of gastrointestinal function in patients after surgery.
