Brief Summary  

A  COMPARATIVE  STUDY  OF  ETOMIDATE  AND  PROPOFOL  AS  INDUCTION  AGENTS  IN  MODIFIED  ELECTROCONVULSIVE THERAPY


INTRODUCTION: Modified ECT is used in refractory psychiatric illnesses with anaesthesia to avoid trauma to the patient physically and psychologically. Propofol and etomidate are short acting iv anaesthetic agents used in ECT.

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: 1) To study propofol in terms of induction time, motor seizure duration, hemodynamic parameters, recovery time and adverse effects. 2)To study etomidate in terms of induction time, motor seizure duration, hemodynamic parameters, recovery time and adverse effects. 3)Comparison of propofol and etomidate in terms of induction time, motor seizure duration, hemodynamic parameters, recovery time, adverse effects in modified electroconvulsive therapy.

MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study will be conducted in Department of Anaesthesiology, GGS Medical College, Faridkot. INCLUSION CRITERIA 1)Adult patients of equal number of males and females, aged between 18 and 55 years. 2)Patients belonging to American Society of Anesthesiologist Grade I and II. 3)Patients scheduled for electroconvulsive therapy. EXCLUSION CRITERIA 1)Patient or relatives refusal for electroconvulsive therapy or both. 2)Patients with known allergy to the study drug. 3)Patients with full stomach, neuromuscular disorders, displaced bone fractures, severe osteoporosis. 3)Patients with history of recent myocardial infarction (<3 months), recent cerebrovascular accident or raised ICP. 4)Patients with epilepsy 5)Patients with hypopituitarism and major illnesses like bronchial asthma and tuberculosis. 6)Pregnant patients. 7)Agitated patients requiring additional sedation. 7)ASA grade III and IV patients.

Written informed consent will be obtained from each patient. 70 patients scheduled for electroconvulsive therapy at Department of Anaesthesia, GGSMCH, Faridkot will be randomly assigned to one of two general anaesthetic groups.

Group A patients will recieve propofol 1.0 mg/kg and Group B patients will receive etomidate 0.2 mg/kg as induction agents respectively and motor seizure duration of the two drugs will be measured.

Intra –operatively, motor seizure duration, induction time, hemodynamic and recovery parameters and any adverse effects will be noted. Following ECT, patients will be assessed by patient satisfaction score and emergence agitation score.
