Zusammenfassung
EKT wird heute als sehr sicheres Behandlungsverfahren verbreitet angewandt. Es werden Patienten in unterschiedlichen Lebensumständen und mit teilweise besonderen Risiken behandelt. Hierunter sind Jugendliche, Schwangere oder auch alte, häufig multimorbide Patienten. Das Kapitel beschäftigt sich mit diesen besonderen Umständen und Risiken, wobei auch neurologische, neuropsychiatrische sowie internistische Begleiterkrankungen Beachtung finden. Vielfach ist die wissenschaftliche Grundlage für Empfehlungen sehr beschränkt, daher wird ein individuelles Vorgehen mit jeweils gründlicher Abwägung des Nutzens gegen die möglichen Risiken empfohlen.
