研究概览
简要总结
Ketamine has been shown to decrease symptoms of anxious depression quickly. This decrease has been shown to last for up to one month. MRI technology will be used before and after ketamine for patients with depression to examine the extent to which certain brain areas predict ketamine's antidepressant effects.
详细描述
Ketamine's antidepressant effects were measured with Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS). MRI data will also be analyzed to examine the extent to which certain brain areas predict ketamine's antidepressant effects.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS) From Baseline/Minute 0 to 4 Hours Post-infusion.
时间窗: 4 hours
Hamilton Depression Rating Scale; possible scores range from 0 to 81 with higher scores indicating higher depression symptoms Change will be calculated by difference between HDRS from Minute 0 to Minute 240.
