About this study

Official title: The Effect of Esketamine on the Quality of Recovery After Modified Radical Mastectomy

Some studies have reported that intravenous esketamine reduce postoperative pain intensity. The investigators investigated whether esketamine could improve the the quality of recovery after modified radical mastectomy.

Read the detailed description

A total of 111 patients were randomly allocated into 3 groups. Patients in group LE received a bolus infusion of esketamine (0.5 mg/kg) before cutting the skin, and then esketamine was infused at a rate of 2 µg/kg/min until before suture the skin. Patients in group HE received a bolus infusion of esketamine (0.5 mg/kg) before cutting the skin, and then esketamine was infused at a rate of 4 µg/kg/min until before suture the skin. Patients in group CON received a bolus infusion of the same volume saline before cutting the skin, and then the same volume saline was infused until before suture the skin.
