[Use of electroconvulsive therapy in resistant states of affective and schizoaffective structure within the framework of endogenous psychoses]
Abstract
The effectiveness of electroconvulsive treatment (ECT) was studied in 80 patients with attacks of affective and schizoaffective structure and resistance or intolerance to psychopharmacotherapy. The best therapeutic effect was observed in patients with attack-like endogenous psychoses, including manic and expansive paraphrenic syndromes. The effectiveness of ECT was related to the peculiarities of attacks and their duration.
