Abstract
This retrospective chart review of a clinical cohort of 19 refractory schizophrenic or schizoaffective patients treated with maintenance electroconvulsive therapy addresses the indications for this treatment, its efficacy, and its impact on daily functioning and hospitalizations. Maintenance electroconvulsive therapy combined with medication appears to be an efficient alternative to pharmacological treatment alone.
