Electroconvulsive Therapy in Croatia
The Journal of ECT, 2014We have performed the first survey on the use of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) in Croatia. We surveyed the ECT practice using a 20-item questionnaire in the Zagreb University Hospital Centre, Osijek University Hospital Centre, and Split University Hospital Centre, the only 3 facilities that have provided ECT, between July 2012 and July 2013.

Psychiatric Clinics of North America, 1993
Modern ECT practice has evolved far from its beginnings more than 50 years ago. ECT is effective, safe, and rewarding in the clinical setting. This discussion complements the 1990 APA Task Force report and elaborates on some of the clinical and scientific factors that could not be fully addressed by the report.

Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), introduced in 1938 by Cerletti, has been of value in the treatment of depression in spite of the use of stimuli which were usually standardized and the wide variation in the inter-electrode impedance and in the resistivity of the tissues traversed. Accurate measurement of the peak current and the peak voltage in a large
