This third edition captures the body of knowledge accumulated over the last 20 years, citing the most recent literature. New features of this book include:

New information on ECT anesthesia
Chapters on detecting and managing adverse effects, including cognitive side effects
An overview of the research on the efficacy of continuation and maintenance treatment after ECT
A discussion of the 2018 United States FDA reclassification of ECT devices and its implications on clinical practice
A chapter on other neuromodulation techniques that include transcranial magnetic stimulation, vagus nerve stimulation, and deep brain stimulation

Like its predecessors, this edition provides comprehensive information on staffing, assessment and preparation for ECT; informed consent; stimulus parameters and dosing; seizure monitoring; and much more. The use of ECT in special circumstances-including in cases of catatonia, in children and adolescents, and during pregnancy-is also considered at length.

With detailed information on medications and medical comorbidities that may require modifications to treatment, as well as clear indications for the use of ECT in specific clinical circumstances and the assessment of treatment outcomes, this book is an indispensable guide to state-of-the-art ECT practice.
