  • Beschreibung: <jats:sec><jats:title>Objective</jats:title><jats:p> Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is used to treat several mental illnesses. Seizure duration is used to determine if the administered stimulus was adequate. Duration is estimated by electroencephalogram (EEG) interpretation and/or observed motor response (OMR). Neither method is considered the gold standard. This study investigated the relationship between the 2 methods. The hypothesis was that both EEG and OMR would be significantly positively correlated. Previous researchers have suggested that the 2 methods resulted in different estimates. </jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods</jats:title><jats:p> A case series was conducted using recorded estimates obtained prospectively from 102 ECTs on adult psychiatric inpatients. </jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results</jats:title><jats:p> A strong positive association was not observed in this study, correlation coefficient 0.510 ( p &lt; 0.001). </jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions</jats:title><jats:p> This study suggests that the 2 methods differ, and further research is needed to determine the best indicator of adequate treatment. </jats:p></jats:sec>
