Dr. Miller and colleagues recently submitted a Letter to the Editor discussing current state laws that result in disparity of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) availability. In this current letter, we present a case of treatment-resistant childhood-onset schizophrenia (COS), with morbidity due to limited access to ECT. The patient and his family presented from Kentucky to Tennessee, despite less legislative regulation in the former. The patient's family provided informed consent for this report to be published.
米勒博士及其同事最近提交了一封致编辑的信,讨论了导致电休克疗法(ECT)可及性存在差异的现行州法律。在这封当前的信中,我们介绍了一例难治性儿童期起病精神分裂症(COS)病例,该病例因ECT可及性有限而出现了发病率。尽管肯塔基州的立法监管较少,但患者及其家人还是从肯塔基州来到了田纳西州。患者家属已对发表本报告给予知情同意。
