- •Diagnosed with major depressive disorder (according to SCID5-CV scale).
- •Affected by treatment resistant depression (defined as at least 2 different antidepressant agents used without success).
- •Adequacy of the score for anesthesia.
排除标准
- •Chronic neurological disease.
- •Participants with a known hypersensitivity to ketamine or any of its excipients will be excluded from the study
- •Participants with any contraindications to the use of ketamine, such as a history of severe cardiovascular conditions (e.g., uncontrolled hypertension, significant arrhythmias), intracranial hypertension, or severe liver impairment, will also be excluded to prevent potential adverse events.
- •Intellectual disability
- •Contraindications to the electroconvulsive therapy (severe aortic valve stenosis, implantable cardiac defibrillators, uncontrolled hypertension, clinically significant respiratory, renal or hepatic disease, abdominal aortic aneurysm, endocrine disorders, neuromuscular diseases, space occupying brain lesions, stroke in the last 6 months),
- •Contraindications to the electroconvulsive therapy (severe aortic valve stenosis, implantable cardiac defibrillators, implantable electronic devises, uncontrolled hypertension, clinically significant respiratory, renal or hepatic disease, abdominal aortic aneurism, endocrine disorders, neuromuscular disease, space-occupying brain lesions, stroke in the last 6 months).

次要结局
- The secondary endpoints include the mean change in MADRS scores from baseline to Week 12, which will evaluate the long-term effects of the treatment. Additionally, cognitive outcomes will be assessed at both Day 28 and Week 12 to examine the impact of the treatment on cognitive function.
