A study of the incidence of epilepsy following ECT.

D H Blackwood, R E Cull, C P Freeman, J I Evans, C Mawdsley.   

Abstract

In a group of 166 patients who had received electroconvulsive therapy more than one year previously the prevalence of epilepsy did not differ significantly from that found in the community as a whole. The findings suggest that a kindling process is not a clinical hazard following repeated electrically induced seizures.
