Significant outcomes In this nationwide, register-based cohort study that included over 12,000 admissions for treatment of a manic episode, 55% of patients were readmitted within 1 year. Patients treated with ECT were more severely ill compared to those who were not treated with ECT, still there was no difference between time to readmission. In a paired samples model, there was a trend toward a longer time to readmission when individuals received ECT.
Significant outcomes Ninety-five women who received electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) during 97 pregnancies were identified in Swedish nationwide registers between 2008 and 2021. The response rates after ECT were high in the pregnant women (74%), which were similar to those found in matched non-pregnant controls (65%). No adverse outcomes related to pregnancy and childbirth could be directly linked to ECT.
