The safety and efficacy of ECT needs to be seriously revisited.


Think of it this way. If your only goal is to temporarily get the patient out of a bad place, then why not use opiates?

I would be willing to bet that theraputic use of opiates would be as (if not more) effective than ECT and you would probably have less long negative health consequences.
