Abstract

Respiratory complications of modified electroconvulsive therapy are rarely reported in the literature. A patient referred to ECT was not known to have Cheyne-Stokes respiration and did not demonstrate any respiratory difficulties after methohexital induction for ECT. However, following the ECT-stimulated seizure, the patient had a long episode of Cheyne-Stokes respiration. Change of anesthetic agent to etomidate minimized the duration of Cheyne-Stokes respiration. The patient tolerated the treatments without complications.
