ObjectivesTo evaluate feasibility and effects of a sub-anesthetic infusion dose of ketamine versus midazolam on suicidal ideation in bipolar depression. Neurocognitive, blood and saliva biomarkers were explored.MethodsSixteen participants with bipolar depression and a Scale for Suicidal Ideation (SSI) score of 4 were randomized to ketamine (0.5mg/kg) or midazolam (0.02mg/kg). Current pharmacotherapy was maintained excluding benzodiazepines within 24hours. The primary clinical outcome was SSI score on day 1 post-infusion.ResultsResults supported feasibility. Mean reduction of SSI after ketamine infusion was almost 6 points greater than after midazolam, although this was not statistically significant (estimate=5.84, SE=3.01, t=1.94, P=.074, 95% confidence interval ([CI)]=-0.65 to 12.31). The number needed to treat for response (SSI
