Use of electroconvulsive therapy in adolescents - A retrospective survey on 12- to 17-year-old patients at three university hospitals in Germany Abstract. Abstract. Background: Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is a highly effective and well-researched therapy in adult psychiatry and has been successfully used especially as a treatment for severe depressive, catatonic, and psychotic disorders. Although severe disease progressions also occur in child and adolescent psychiatry, ECT is used much less frequently there. This may be because hardly any data have been collected on the use, effectiveness, and tolerability of ECT in child and adolescent psychiatric patients. This article outlines the application, effectiveness, and tolerability of ECT when applied to young adolescents in Germany. Methods: A retrospective survey on ECT in 29 patients under 18 years of age was conducted at three German university centers. All documented cases were recorded and evaluated for effectiveness and tolerability. In addition, a comprehensive PubMed-based database search was carried out. Results and conclusions: Internationally, there are no meta-analyses or randomized controlled studies and hardly any published cases on electroconvulsive therapy in German child and adolescent psychiatry. Our data on ECT show high efficacy in previously treatment-resistant and severely ill patients. Side effects occurred rarely. There was no evidence of differences between adults and adolescents in indication (depression, catatonia, schizophrenia), effectiveness, tolerability, and negative predictors of response to ECT. The results also suggest that the use of ECT in adolescents should be considered earlier in the treatment course.
