ECT |
Can’t drive for course if therapy DONT TAKE ANY ANTICONVULSANTS Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) uses an electrical current applied to the scalp to induce a generalized seizure in an anesthetized client. Prior to the procedure, the client should be NPO and not take anticonvulsant medications. Temporary confusion and memory loss are common after the procedure. Clients should be instructed not to drive during the course of ECT treatment. |
NPO status is required for 6-8 hours prior to treatment except for sips of water with medications (Option 4). Anesthesia (eg, methohexital, propofol) and a muscle relaxant (eg, succinylcholine) will be administered; clients are unconscious and feel no pain during the procedure. Driving is not permitted during the course of ECT treatment (Option 2). Temporary memory loss and confusion in the immediate recovery period are common side effects of ECT (Option 3). |
