Computers in Ect and Paperless Eeg Monitoring
Sir, EEG monitoring during ECT procedure to measure the duration of seizures has been recommended (American Psychiatric Association, 1990; Freeman et al, 1989). We have designed an EEG amplifier of 2 channels with a gain of 2000 and filter settings of 2Hz (high pass), 40Hz (low pass) and 50Hz (notch filter) and recorded from F3 and F4 referenced to ipsilateral mastoids with ground on forehead. ...
متن کاملEEG Monitoring in ECT: A Guide to Treatment Efficacy
The duration of the motor seizure was examined next, and in evaluations of the seizures in unilateral and bilateral ECT, it seemed reasonable to opine that a minimum of 25 seconds defined a good seizure (Fink and Johnson, 1982). In studies of unilateral and bilateral ECT with threshold and suprathresh-old energy dosing, motor seizure durations were greater than 25 seconds, yet the threshold-uni...

متن کاملMerits of Eeg Monitoring during Ect: a Prospective Study on 485 Patients
Eliciting cerebral seizure during electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is essential for therapeutic purposes. When it exceeds beyond 120 seconds (Freeman, 1995) i.e., prolonged, it adds to adverse effects of ECT. Estimating seizure duration using 'cuff method' alone has limitations. This study examined the merits of electroencephalographic (EEG) monitoring in routine ECT practice on a large represen...
