Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Serum potassium levels. Timepoint: Before the administration of the anesthetic (baseline), before induction of the Electroshock (after administration of the drug), after the seizure, and 20 minutes after induction of anesthesia. Method of measurement: potassium test.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Heart rate changes. Timepoint: Before the administration of the anesthetic (baseline), before induction of the electroshock (after administration of the drug), after the seizure, and 20 minutes after induction of anesthesia. Method of measurement: Heart monitoring.;Systolic blood pressure. Timepoint: Before the administration of the anesthetic (baseline), before induction of the electroshock (after administration of the drug), after the seizure, and 20 minutes after induction of anesthesia. Method of measurement: Non invasive blood pressure monitor.;Diastolic blood pressure. Timepoint: Before the administration of the anesthetic (baseline), before induction of the electroshock (after administration of the drug), after the seizure, and 20 minutes after induction of anesthesia. Method of measurement: Non invasive blood pressure monitor.;Mean arterial pressure. Timepoint: Before the administration of the anesthetic (baseline), before induction of the electroshock (after administration of the drug), after the seizure, and 20 minutes after induction of anesthesia. Method of measurement: Non invasive blood pressure monitor.;Oxygen saturation. Timepoint: Before the administration of the anesthetic (baseline), before induction of the electroshock (after administration of the drug), after the seizure, and 20 minutes after induction of anesthesia. Method of measurement: Percent with pulse oximeter.;Recovery time. Timepoint: From the end of seizure to full consciousness. Method of measurement: In minutes using a stopwatch.
