Purpose: While esketamine shows promise as an adjunct in procedural sedation, its impact on postoperative cognitive recovery remains incompletely characterized. This study investigated the effects of esketamine on multiple dimensions of recovery, particularly cognition, in patients undergoing colonoscopy with propofol-based sedation.
Patients And Methods: We conducted this randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial from January 6, 2023, to May 20, 2024, at two hospitals in China.

Background: Hypovolemia is common in colonoscopy due to fasting and bowel preparation, and propofol itself can reduce systemic vascular resistance, resulting in relative hypovolemia. Therefore, hypotension is not a rare event during propofol-based sedation for colonoscopy.
Objectives: Our objective was to explore the efficacy of esketamine as a sedative adjuvant in reducing the incidence of hypotension during colonoscopy.

Purpose: Variations in US commercial health plan coverage policies affect how patients access medications. Plans may vary in treatment access criteria, line of therapy, and prescriber requirements. In this study, we examined coverage of esketamine hydrochloride (Spravato) for major depressive disorder (MDD) and treatment-resistant depression (TRD) to answer the following question: how do US commercial health plans cover esketamine, and how do they guide prompt patient access to the drug?
Methods: We used information from the Tufts Medical Center Specialty Drug Evidence and Coverage database, which includes coverage policies issued by 18 large commercial health plans in the United States.
