Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This protocol proposes a pilot randomized clinical trial to examine whether Low Pulse Amplitude Focal ECT (LAP) has a more favorable cognitive profile compared to conventional unilateral ECT and that it has similar effects as traditional ECT in reducing suicidality. The study will enroll 10 patients recruited from the Medical College of Georgia (at Georgia Regents University/Augusta University, GRU/AU) as the only site of the study. Eligible participants will be randomly assigned (1:1 ratio) to receive a course of either RUL LAP ECT, or conventional RUL ECT.
