Popis: | Introduction: Seizure duration in Electro convulsive Therapy (ECT) is a clinically important factor in managing psychiatric patients subjected to the procedure. Various induction agents are being used with varying efficacy on seizure duration and haemodynamic response like thiopentone, propofol, ketamine and etomidate. As repeated ECT sessions pose significant risk of general anaesthesia and its complications, in this study the efficacy of etomidate and propofol was compared. Aim: To assess the seizure duration and compare haemodynamic variables using etomidate and propofol. Materials and Methods: A randomised clinical trial was done in the Department of Anaesthesiology, at tertiary care hospital between July 2021 to June 2022 on 40 patients of age group 18 to 60 years of either sex, belonging to American Society of Anaesthesiologists (ASA) Grade-I and II scheduled for ECT. Patients were allocated into two groups. Preinduction baseline values of Heart Rate (HR), Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP), Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) and Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) were recorded using pulse oximeter and Non Invasive Blood Pressure (NIBP). Patients were induced with either, inj. etomidate 0.2 mg/kg (Group E) or inj. propofol 1 mg/kg (Group P). HR, SBP, DBP and MAP were recorded soon after induction, after application of stimulus and at one minute interval after electric 156 shock for five minutes and then at five minutes interval. Statistical analysis was done by using the unpaired Student’s t-test for quantitative data. The p-value |
