Summary
This study will evaluate the effect of ketamine on the treatment of patients hospitalized
with suicidal thoughts. Half of the patients will receive one dose of ketamine in the vein.
The other half will receive a placebo. Because we think that ketamine will improve depression
and suicidal thoughts, we expect that patients who receive ketamine will require less time in
the hospital than patients who receive placebo.
