Post-electroconvulsive therapy recovery and reorientation time with methohexital and ketamine: a randomized, longitudinal, crossover design trial.
Yen T, Khafaja M, Lam N, Crumbacher J, Schrader R, Rask J, Billstrand M, Rothfork J, Abbott CC. Yen T, et al. J ECT. 2015 Mar;31(1):20-5. doi: 10.1097/YCT.0000000000000132. J ECT. 2015. PMID: 24755722 Free PMC article. Clinical Trial.
In this preliminary study, we directly compared the recovery and reorientation times of subjects receiving ketamine and methohexital for ECTs. METHODS: Twenty patients were randomized in a crossover design to receive methohexital and ketamine for ECT i …

Comparison of seizure duration, ictal EEG, and cognitive effects of ketamine and methohexital anesthesia with ECT.
Krystal AD, Weiner RD, Dean MD, Lindahl VH, Tramontozzi LA 3rd, Falcone G, Coffey CE. Krystal AD, et al. J Neuropsychiatry Clin Neurosci. 2003 Winter;15(1):27-34. doi: 10.1176/jnp.15.1.27. J Neuropsychiatry Clin Neurosci. 2003. PMID: 12556568
The authors retrospectively compared the seizure duration, ictal EEG, and cognitive side effects of ketamine and methohexital anesthesia with ECT. This comparison was carried out with data from consecutive index ECT treatments that occurred immediately before …

The electroencephalographic pattern during electroconvulsive therapy. IV. Spectral energy distributions with methohexital, innovar and ketamine anesthesias.
Staton RD, Enderle JD, Gerst JW. Staton RD, et al. Clin Electroencephalogr. 1986 Oct;17(4):203-15. Clin Electroencephalogr. 1986. PMID: 3791648
Delta energy constitutes approximately three-fourths of the unilateral ECT seizure's total energy, and Phase III delta energy may be the therapeutically effective agent in this treatment. ...Nondominant unilateral ECT with ketamine anesthesia offers promise a …

A Bayesian framework systematic review and meta-analysis of anesthetic agents effectiveness/tolerability profile in electroconvulsive therapy for major depression.
Fond G, Bennabi D, Haffen E, Brunel L, Micoulaud-Franchi JA, Loundou A, Lançon C, Llorca PM, Auquier P, Boyer L. Fond G, et al. Sci Rep. 2016 Jan 25;6:19847. doi: 10.1038/srep19847. Sci Rep. 2016. PMID: 26806849 Free PMC article. Review.
No difference was found for the acceptability profile (all p > 0.05). In summary, ketamine and methohexital may be preferred to propofol or thiopental in regard of effectiveness in depression scores and increased seizure duration. Further studies are warra …

Pro- and anticonvulsant effects of anesthetics (Part II).
Modica PA, Tempelhoff R, White PF. Modica PA, et al. Anesth Analg. 1990 Apr;70(4):433-44. doi: 10.1213/00000539-199004000-00016. Anesth Analg. 1990. PMID: 2180345 Review.
Perioperative seizures have numerous potential etiologies. In general, when seizures occur during surgery, their onset often coincides with the introduction of a specific anesthetic or analgesic drug. ...The excitatory effects of methohexital are presumably d …

Effects of Anesthesia Changes During Maintenance ECT: A Longitudinal Comparison of Seizure Quality Under Anesthesia Using Propofol/Esketamine Versus Methohexital.
Methfessel I, Zilles-Wegner D, Kunze-Szikszay N, Belz M. Methfessel I, et al. Pharmacopsychiatry. 2023 Jul;56(4):141-148. doi: 10.1055/a-2058-9010. Epub 2023 Apr 28. Pharmacopsychiatry. 2023. PMID: 37116539 Free article.
So far, no studies have compared the influence of methohexital vs. a combination of propofol/esketamine on established SQ parameters. METHODS: This retrospective longitudinal study compared eight established SQ parameters (PSI, ASEI, MSC, midictal amplitude, motor a …

[The comparison of ketamine with methohexital and thiopental in the intraoperative EEG in drug-resistant epilepsy].
Rysz A, Bachański M, Bidziński J, Bacia T. Rysz A, et al. Neurol Neurochir Pol. 1998;32 Suppl 2:237-45. Neurol Neurochir Pol. 1998. PMID: 9757447 Polish.
RESULTS: Ketamine significantly more often caused ECoG identified electrographic seizures than methohexital: p = 0, 00001 or thiopental, which in no cases resulted in seizures. Also electrographic seizures occurred more frequently after administ …

Effects of S-ketamine as an anesthetic adjuvant to propofol on treatment response to electroconvulsive therapy in treatment-resistant depression: a randomized pilot study.
Järventausta K, Chrapek W, Kampman O, Tuohimaa K, Björkqvist M, Häkkinen H, Yli-Hankala A, Leinonen E. Järventausta K, et al. J ECT. 2013 Sep;29(3):158-61. doi: 10.1097/YCT.0b013e318283b7e9. J ECT. 2013. PMID: 23475029 Clinical Trial.
OBJECTIVE: Ketamine in electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) anesthesia has been reported to be associated with better seizure quality and longer duration compared with methohexital anesthesia. ...The aim of the present pilot study was to explore the effects of S- …

Rethinking restimulation: a case report.
Kranaster L, Janke C, Lewien A, Hoyer C, Lederbogen F, Sartorius A. Kranaster L, et al. J ECT. 2012 Dec;28(4):248-9. doi: 10.1097/YCT.0b013e318254f437. J ECT. 2012. PMID: 22561548
We hypothesize ST to be lowered immediately after the refractory period, particularly after inadequate or abortive seizures where risk for prolonged seizures is generally higher. Ketamine anesthesia does not possess pronounced anticonvulsive properties like p …

Ketamine anesthesia in electroconvulsive therapy.
Rasmussen KG, Jarvis MR, Zorumski CF. Rasmussen KG, et al. Convuls Ther. 1996 Dec;12(4):217-23. Convuls Ther. 1996. PMID: 9034696
However, because its effect on seizures is presumably less than that of methohexital, ketamine is listed as an alternative method to prolong seizure length. In this case series, 10 patients were given ketamine anesthesia during ECT. Whereas bloo …
