The seizure EEG records of 25 depressives receiving ECT were 'blindly' rated by two trained raters using a uniform definition of seizure endpoint. The EEG seizure duration estimates were validated against five expected relationships. EEG seizure duration correlated with and was more than motor seizure duration, reduced over the course of ECTs, was consistent within subjects, and negatively varied with age. Within clinical constraints, the method of seizure duration estimation by the last spike is valid.
对 25 名接受电休克治疗的抑郁症患者的癫痫 EEG 记录进行了“盲目”评估，由两名经过培训的评估者使用统一的癫痫终点定义进行评估。对 EEG 癫痫持续时间的估计值进行了验证，符合五个预期关系。EEG 癫痫持续时间与运动性癫痫持续时间相关，且长于运动性癫痫持续时间，随着 ECT 的进行而减少，在受试者内是一致的，并且随年龄的增长而呈负相关。在临床限制内，最后一个尖峰的癫痫持续时间估计方法是有效的。
