Propofol and electroconvulsive therapy.
(being a private hospital) where often the most difficult patients are admitted. The situation with restricted patients is differ ent. The RMO has no authority to discharge the patient, although the Home Office could be accused of passing the buck. It is unfair that administrative officers and clerks, hundreds of miles away at the Home Office, should make this decision for some of the most diff...
متن کاملBispectral index monitoring during electroconvulsive therapy under propofol anaesthesia.
BACKGROUND The accuracy of the bispectral index (BIS) as a monitor of consciousness has not been well studied in patients who have abnormal electroencephalograms (EEG). METHODS We studied the changes in BIS, its subparameters, and spectral entropy of the EEG during 18 electroconvulsive treatments under propofol and succinylcholine anaesthesia. A single bifrontal EEG, and second subocular chan...
متن کاملSevoflurane versus propofol for electroconvulsive therapy: effects on seizure parameters, anesthesia recovery, and the bispectral index.
BACKGROUND/AIM In this prospective randomized cross-over study we compare the effects of sevoflurane versus propofol for electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) anesthesia. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty four patients (ASA I-III, 18-65 years old) receiving ECT three times per week were included. Anesthesia was induced with either propofol (0.75 mg/kg iv) or 5% sevoflurane in 100% oxygen. Consecutive EC...
متن کاملIs ketamine–propofol mixture (ketofol) an appropriate alternative induction agent for electroconvulsive therapy?
therefore their side-effects on these systems could be reduced by administering a combination of them at a lower dose.[9] In recent studies done on patients undergoing ECT, it showed that using sub-anesthetic ketamine and low-dose propofol could increase the seizure duration, provide hemodynamic stability and earlier recovery compared with the use of a full dose of propofol alone. In a study by...
متن کاملPropofol-Remifentanil Combination for Management of Electroconvulsive Therapy in a Patient with Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome
Electroconvulsive therapy can be effective in severe or treatment resistant neuroleptic malignant syndrome patients. Anesthesia and use of muscle relaxant agents for electroconvulsive therapy in such patients may encounter anesthesiologists with specific challenges. This case report describes successful management of anesthesia in 28-year-old male patient undergoing eight electroconvulsive ther...
