The literature concerning the effects of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) upon the EEG is reviewed with respect to the degree and persistence of abnormalities. The most common electrophysiological dysfunction consists of generalized regular and irregular slow wave activity. This slowing typically disappears by a few weeks to a few months following completion of the ECT course but in rare cases may persists for longer periods. Patients given large numbers of ECT treatments tend to show more prolonged alterations. Possible correlations of these EEG changes with a variety of parameters are discussed.
本文就电休克治疗（ECT）对脑电图（EEG）的影响，从异常程度和持续时间方面进行了文献综述。最常见的电生理功能障碍表现为广泛性规则和不规则慢波活动。这种慢波通常在ECT疗程结束后的几周至几个月内消失，但在极少数情况下可能持续更长时间。接受大量ECT治疗的患者往往表现出更持久的改变。文中还讨论了这些脑电图变化与各种参数之间可能存在的相关性。
