May warrant hemodynamic caution during ECT in severe aortic stenosis; single case leaves open need for prospective safety data.
Case Report (n=1)
Patients with severe aortic stenosis may be at increased risk for untoward hemodynamic events such as hypotension and bradycardia during electroconvulsive therapy.
Sutor et al. (2008) conducted a case report in Severe Aortic Stenosis and Depression (n=1). Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) dose titration was evaluated on Hypotension and bradycardia. A 75-year-old woman with severe aortic stenosis developed hypotension and bradycardia during electroconvulsive therapy dose titration.
