The effect of ketamine on preventing postpartum depression

In a double‑blind randomised trial of 134 women undergoing scheduled caesarean section, a single 0.5 mg/kg dose of ketamine given during anaesthetic induction significantly lowered Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale scores at two and four weeks versus control. These findings indicate ketamine may help prevent postpartum depression, but larger studies are required to confirm efficacy and safety.
