Abstract:
The selection of an electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) device from the more than 10 American-made models can be a difficult endeavor. This article is meant to be a single source of basic descriptions of these ECT devices. The information provided will allow the ECT clinician to be aware of the important issues involved in the selection of an ECT device and to become familiar with the basic features of each model.
