Özet
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of propofol and propofol-alfentanil combination used in Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) on duration of convulsion, hemodynamic responses cardiovascular system and recovery characteristics. Arterial blood pressure, heart rate, peripheral oxygen saturation, and electrocardiogram were monitored during the ECT procedure. Patients were randomized into two groups (Group I: propofol, n:16, Group II: propofol+alfentanil, n:16). After premedication with atropine, the G I received propofol 0.75 mg kg-1 and the G II received propofol 0.50 mg kg-1 and alfentanil 20, μg kg-1 Additional propofol was given as needed in 0.1 mg kg-1 increments until loss of consciousness. Suxamethonium 1.0 mg kg-1 IV was given for muscular paralysis. The electrical stimulus was administered immediately after resolution of fasciculations. Mean motor convulsion duration were longer with propofol-alfentanil than with propofol. Hemodynamic responses and recovery characteristics were similar for the two groups. We concluded that the combination of propofol with alfentanil is a better combination for ECT.
