A brief period of aphasia is an extremely rare and likely underreported adverse effect of electroconvulsive therapy. Clinical studies that have described this phenomenon are scarce and its prevalence is unknown. We present a unique case of a 35-year old woman, who underwent an outpatient ECT session at our department, followed by a short span of aphasic symptoms, the extent of which were monitored clinically and via the czech version of the Minnesota aphasia screening test.
短暂性失语是电抽搐治疗极罕见且可能报告不足的不良反应。描述该现象的临床研究很少,其发生率尚不清楚。我们报告了一个独特的病例,一名 35 岁女性在我院接受了门诊电抽搐治疗,随后出现短暂性失语症状,其严重程度通过临床和捷克版明尼苏达失语症筛查测试进行监测。
