Current Primary Outcome Measures ICMJE |
Change in Depression Symptoms Measured by the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale- 21 Items [ Time Frame: 2 and 24 hours after inhalation ] Change in depression symptoms measured by the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale- 21 items. The HAMD-21 is designed to rate the severity of depression in patients. Although it contains 21 areas, calculate the patient's score as the total score on the first 17 answers. Scale: 0=absent, 4=worst level possible) the scores on the individual items are summed. Changes will be based on measurements obtained at baseline, approximately 2 hours after inhalation, and approximately 24 hours after inhalation. Changes are based on subtracti on of baseline score.

Brief Summary | The purpose of the study aims to determine whether different concentrations of nitrous oxide (N2O) have different antidepressant effects for adults with treatment-resistant major depression. | ||||
Detailed Description | Most clinical major depression responds to standard treatments (medication and psychotherapy); however, a significant subset of depressed patients (15-20%) do not respond to these treatments and are referred to as treatment-resistant major depression (TRMD). New treatments for TRMD are needed, and one promising line of research are drugs known as N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) glutamate receptor antagonists. In a recent pilot study, our group demonstrated that the NMDA antagonist nitrous oxide is effective in TRMD. All patients will receive 3 randomized, one hour nitrous oxide inhalations to placebo (0% N2O), low dose (25% N2O), and high dose (50% N2O). Inhalation sessions will be at least 4 weeks apart. Mood will be assessed at baseline, 2 and 24 hours, and 1, 2, and 4 weeks post-inhalation for each dose. |
