Resumo
Objetivo: Abordar os principais cuidados na anestesia para pacientes submetidos à ECT. Revisão bibliográfica: A partir da suposição de que os pacientes esquizofrênicos, os quais sofriam de convulsões, apresentavam melhora dos sintomas psicóticos, e da observação post-mortem do aumento (além do esperado), da concentração de células gliais em pacientes epilépticos e da sua redução em pacientes com esquizofrenia, foi postulado que as convulsões teriam efeitos terapêuticos. Vários métodos de indução de convulsão foram desenvolvidos, a princípio com uso de fármacos, os quais produziam um resultado terapêutico variável com inúmeros efeitos colaterais. Posteriormente, na década de trinta do século passado, com o uso da eletricidade, obteve-se resultados mais precisos e com maior segurança ao paciente. Considerações finais: O advento da anestesia tornou o procedimento ainda mais seguro, humanizado, eficaz e mais bem tolerado. Mais recentemente, foram ampliadas as indicações para a realização de ECT, tornando imperativo que os profissionais envolvidos tenham o conhecimento sobre as respostas fisiológicas, as interações medicamentosas, possíveis complicações e contraindicações da ECT.
