Electrodermal response as a monitor in electroconvulsive therapy
1Edenfield Centre, Prestwich Hospital, Manchester.
Abstract:
A study comparing the use of electrodermal response with the cuff technique and clinical judgment as monitors in electroconvulsive therapy is reported. A sensitivity of 90.5% and a specificity of 41.7% were found and it is, therefore, suggested that this method is not used routinely.
