  ABSTRACT: Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is becoming increasingly popular in the treatment of medication-resistant depression. Understanding the concepts behind the physiological changes brought upon by the stimulus as well as the rationale behind the various pharmacologic agents used during the procedure is crucial in providing safe and effective ECT.
