The Comparison of the Effect of Repetitive Doses of Succinylcholine and Thiopental Sodium on the Duration and Severity of Seizure in Electro Convulsive Therapy: Randomized Clinical Trial
Abstract:Background and Aim: Regarding the controversial results on the effects of anesthetics, especially thiopental sodium, on the duration and severity of seizure and the lack of adequate information on the use of doses of anesthetic and paralysing drugs during ECT, this study was designed to determine the effect of repetitive doses of succinylcholine and Thiopental sodium was administered on the duration and severity of seizure during ECT.
