ISSN Series: | Clinical Manual of Electroconvulsive Therapy | Discipline: | Psychiatry | Subject Definition: | Electroconvulsive Therapy-Instrumentation | NLM Class: | WM 412 | LC Class: | RC485 | Abstract: | Increasingly, electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is recognized as a proven, effective, and even life-saving intervention in certain mood and thought disorders when other treatments have had little or no effect. Despite the proven efficacy and safety of this standard treatment in psychiatry, its availability is variable. Part of this disparity in access is related to misunderstanding by laypersons regarding the treatment and its potential adverse effects. Adequate education and training of psychiatrists and their support staff are essential to ensuring patients' access to this vital treatment tool. The authors ofClinical Manual of Electroconvulsive Therapyoffer this expansive yet reader-friendly volume to help psychiatrists successfully incorporate ECT into their clinical practices. It is also a valuable resource for medical students and psychiatric residents, as well as experienced clinicians and researchers. The book updates the 1985 original and 1998 second edition of Electroconvulsive Therapy:A Programmed Text, and provides readers with a scheduled approach to understanding the fundamental concepts of ECT while offering practical guidance for establishing and maintaining an ECT program. This clinical manual comprehensively explores and explains the available knowledge regarding ECT--based on extensive research over the past 70 years--in order to help potential ECT clinicians make informed choices about the development and management of their ECT program. |
