Summary

Esketamine is a commonly used analgesic during cesarean delivery, but may produce transient neuropsychiatric symptoms. Dexmedetomidine has both sedative and analgesic effects. When used in combination with esketamine, dexmedetomidine can reduce esketamine related neuropsychiatric effects after general anesthesia. The investigator speculate that combining low-dose dexmedetomidine with esketamine may also reduce neuropsychiatric adverse effects of esketamine in women undergoing cesarean section. This pilot trial is designed to determine the minimum dose of dexmedetomidine that can effectively prevent neuropsychiatric side effects of antidepressive dose esketamine (0.2mg/kg) in women undergoing cesarean delivery.
