NCT06389344

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effect of intraoperative infusion of subanesthetic dose of esketamine on conscious status in patients with prolonged disorders of consciousness under sevoflurane anesthesia. Participants will be patients with prolonged disorders of consciousness undergoing surgery with general anesthesia at Beijing Tiantan Hospital. 0.3mg/kg esketamine or saline will be infused will be infused intravenously at a constant speed within 30 min after tracheal intubation/pneumatectomy fixation. Coma recovery scale-revised, Glasgow coma scale, Full Outline of UnResponsiveness scores, SedLine multi-channel electroencephalogram and perioperative adverse events after surgery will be investigated.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Coma recovery scale-revised(CRS-R)

    The CRS-R ranges from 0 to 23, with a higher score indicating a better state of consciousness.

    3±1 day after surgery

Secondary Outcomes (9)

  • Coma recovery scale-revised(CRS-R)

    1,3,6 months after surgery

  • Full Outline of UnResponsiveness(FOUR)

    3±1 day, 1,3,6 months after surgery

  • Glasgow coma scale(GCS)

    3±1 day, 1,3,6 months after surgery

  • Original EEG

    during surgery and 3±1 day after surgery

  • Patient state index(PSI)

    during surgery and 3±1 day after surgery

  • +4 more secondary outcomes
