Summary
This study tests whether a medicine (dexmedetomidine) given as a nose spray before labor pain relief can lower the chance of postpartum depression (PPD). About 270 women having a vaginal delivery will take part. Half get the spray, half get a placebo. The main goal is to see if fewer women in the spray group have depression symptoms 6 weeks after giving birth.
