Frequently asked questions
Modern modified ECT, administered under general anaesthesia with muscle relaxants, is considered one of the safest and most effective treatments in psychiatry. The main side effects are short-term memory confusion and mild headaches, which resolve within days to weeks. When performed at JCI or NABH-accredited international hospitals, the safety standards are equivalent to those in the UK or USA. Your pre-treatment assessment will include an ECG, blood tests, and an anaesthetic review to ensure you are medically fit. All sessions are performed by a psychiatrist–anaesthetist team in a fully equipped clinical setting.
