Abstract:
:Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) as well as the diseases it treats have been associated with stroke and cognitive impairment. We investigate the relationship between ECT and the subsequent development of stroke in patients with different severe mental illnesses. Tapping Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database, we identified patients diagnosed with severe mental illnesses who had received ECT between Jan 1, 2002 and Dec 31, 2007. A comparison cohort was constructed of patients who were matched by age, gender, and diagnosis but did not receive ECT. The patients were then followed up for occurrence of subsequent new-onset stroke. We identified 6264 patients had been diagnosed with mental illness and had received ECT. They were matched with 18,664 mentally ill patients who had not. The study cohort had a lower incidence of subsequent stroke than the matched controls, after controlling for age, diabetes, hypertension, coronary heart disease and enrollee sociodemographic category, risk factors for stroke in both study and control cohorts. ECT is associated with reduced risk of subsequent stroke in patients with severe mental illnesses in Taiwan. Therefore, clinicians should not let risk of stroke stop them from suggesting ECT to physically healthy patients who might benefit from this therapy.
