What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • EsketamineDrug

    Esketamine is infused through the whole period of surgery. Participants randomized to the esketamine arm will receive 1 mg/ml solution infused at 0.1 mg/kg/hour (0.1 ml/kg/h) .

  • SalineDrug

    Also called Placebo

    Participants randomized to the placebo arm will receive 0.9 mg/ml sodium chloride, infused at a rate of 0.1 ml/kg/hour throughout the surgery.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Intraoperative sufentanil (time frame: 24 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
