Treatment-resistant depression and intranasal esketamine: Spanish consensus on theoretical aspects
Introduction Depression is a highly prevalent disease that severely impacts the life of patients. Inadequate response to at least two antidepressants despite adequacy of treatment and adherence is known as treatment-resistant depression (TRD), which entails a higher social and economic burden than n...

Introduction Depression is a highly prevalent disease that severely impacts the life of patients. Inadequate response to at least two antidepressants despite adequacy of treatment and adherence is known as treatment-resistant depression (TRD), which entails a higher social and economic burden than non-resistant major depression.

Intranasal esketamine has a novel mechanism of action that differs from that of traditional antidepressants by improving neuroplasticity and synaptogenesis.Material and methods A scientific committee comprising ten psychiatrists, experts in TRD in Spain, reviewed the literature (grey literature and articles or scientific communications published between January 2014 and January 2024 in PubMed) and developed statements on theoretical and conceptual aspects of TRD.
