Results No significant differences of seizure energy index, postictal suppression index and seizure duration were found between the two groups ( P >0 05). ECT has the same therapeutic effect on patients with schizophrenia ( P >0 05). Conclusions Our data suggest that half intensity ECT maybe as effective as full intensity ECT.展开更多
