Approaches for difficult-to-induce-seizures electroconvulsive therapy cases (DEC): a Japanese expert consensus
Abstract Background Seizure threshold increases with age and the frequency of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). Therefore, therapeutic seizures can be difficult to induce, even at maximum stimulus charge with available ECT devices. Such cases are known as difficult-to-induce-seizures electroconvulsiv...
