Low Amplitude Pulse Seizure Therapy Versus Standard Ultra-Brief Right Unilateral Electroconvulsive Therapy
Testing a low-amplitude seizure treatment vs standard ECT for suicidal thoughts in depression
📍 Pine Rest Christian Mental Health Services · Grand Rapids, MI · Get directions →

Our central hypothesis is that RUL LAP-ST has significantly less cognitive/memory side effects (no memory side effects were noted in our prior studies for 500mA and 600mA) and thus is more favorable in terms of side effects compared to RUL conventional pulse amplitude ECT, while maintaining better anti-suicidal effect.
