“Ketamine to Improve Recovery After Cesarean Delivery - Part 1”
The objective of this study is evaluate the breastmilk transfer and pharmacokinetics (Part 1) and effectiveness (Part 2) of a post-cesarean delivery intravenous ketamine bolus-and-infusion strategy, as a preventive analgesic modality to reduce pain and opioid requirements. Physiochemical, PK/PD, and breastmilk transfer of ketamine and its metabolites, as well as calculated estimations for neonatal exposure will be assessed in Part 1. In Part 2, PK/PD assessments will continue in a larger cohort. Endpoints will also include postpartum pain, depression scores, central sensitization measures, patient-reported postpartum recovery scores, breastfeeding, and parent-infant bonding, assessed in the acute post-cesarean period and up to 12 weeks postpartum.
