Abstract

Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) remains one of the most effective treatments among the existing neuropsychiatric disorders treatments. Most hypnotic agents used as an anesthetics have pronounced anticonvulsive characteristics. The ideal hypnotic agent for ECT has a short half-life, does not influence seizure duration and quality, and guarantees the patient's hemodynamic stability. Propofol is often used as an anesthetic agent for ECT. Etomidate is an alternative induction agent. Two cases that were treated with an electrical stimulus at the maximum level for the ECT machine in use were presented , but should not obtain enough seizure duration.

Özet

Elektrokonvülzif (EKT) tedavi, mevcut nöropsikiyatrik hastalıkların tedavileri arasında en etkili tedavilerden birisidir. Anestezik olarak kullanılan hipnotik ilaçların antikonvülzan özellikleri bildirilmiştir. EKT için ideal hipnotik ilaç kısa etkili, nöbet süresi ve kalitesini etkilemeyen ve hastanın hemodinamik stabilitesini sağlayan özellikte olmalıdır. Propofol, EKT için anestezik ilaç olarak sıklıkla kullanılmaktadır. Etomidat alternatif indüksiyon ilacıdır. EKT'de yüksek seviyede enerji ile istenilen nöbet süresi elde edilemeyen iki olguda etomidatın alternatif kullanımı sunulmaktadır.
