Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>1. The PK parameters of esketamine; clearance, distributionvolume and half life.<br /><br><br /><br>2.The PD parameters of esketamine; EC50 (concentration at half Emax) and Emax<br /><br>(maximal effect). These parameters characterize the relationship between<br /><br>plasmaconcentration of esketamine and the sedative effect (COMFORT-B score). </p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Inter- and intra-patient variability of the PK and PD parameters of esketamine. </p><br>
