Electoconvulsive Therapy is used in cases of mental illness where medications fail to ease the symptoms or may be used in association with other treatment and medications. It is safe, most effective and fastest way to treat symptoms in extremely depressed or suicidal patients.
Under General anesthesia the electrodes are placed by the doctor at precise locations to pass electric current that causes a brief seizure. There will be no memory of treatment after waking up but sometimes it may feel groggy.
The number of sessions vary with the patient, ranging from 6 to12 sessions over a duration of several weeks.
