Abstract
Few studies have investigated the prophylactic efficacy of dexmedetomidine (DEX) in postpartum depressive symptoms (PDS). A randomized double‐blind placebo‐controlled trial was conducted to investigate whether the administration of DEX, immediately after delivery and for patient‐controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA), can attenuate PDS.
