The goal of this observational study is to determine if there are any differences in seizure duration, seizure quality, and recovery time associated with the utilize of different anesthetic induction agents in patients undergoing electroconvulsive therapy.
The main question it aims to answer is: Does the choice of anesthetic agent in ECT affect seizure duration, seizure quality, and recovery time? The secondary aim is to measure and compare Patient State Index values on different time of ECT procedure.
Participants were informed in detail about the ECT procedure. It was explained that, prior to the induction of anesthesia, a probe would be placed on the face to measure the PSI. Written informed consent was obtained from all participants.
