    Abstract

    There is substantial evidence that electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) can ameliorate the symptoms of Parkinson's disease independent of any antidepressant activity. ECT thus presents a treatment alternative for the severely impaired, medication-resistant Parkinson's patient. In this article, we review the literature on this subject and present our recommendations for current clinical practice.
