Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is the most rapid and effective antidepressant treatment but with concerns about cognitive adverse effects. A new form of ECT, focal electrically administered seizure (FEAST), was designed to increase focality stimulation better match stimulus parameters neurophysiology. We recently reported on safety feasibility FEAST in a cohort (n = 17) depressed patients. now report safety, feasibility, preliminary efficacy, effects cohort.Open-label 20 adults (6 men; 3...
Focal Electrically-Administered Seizure Therapy (FEAST) is a form of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) that spatially focuses the electrical stimulus to initiate seizure activity in right prefrontal cortex. Two open-label non-comparative studies suggested FEAST has reduced cognitive side effects when compared historical data from other forms ECT. In two different ECT clinics, we efficacy and Right Unilateral Ultrabrief Pulse (RUL-UBP) ECT.Using non-randomized, design, 39 depressed adults were...
Nearly all long-bone fractures are accompanied by some form of fat embolism. The rare complication clinically significant embolism syndrome, however, occurs in only 0.9-2.2% cases. clinical triad syndrome consists respiratory distress, altered mental status, and petechial rash. Cerebral causes the neurologic involvement seen syndrome. A 19-year-old African-American male was admitted with gunshot wounds to his right hand knee. He had diffuse hyperactive deep tendon reflexes, bilateral ankle...
### Patient A 27-year-old woman. ### Present illness A 27-year-old female patient with chronic post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and recurrent major depressive sisorder (MDD) is referred for consultation regarding possible repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) treatment her medication-resistant depression. She has no other medical diagnoses had history of substance abuse. ### status At the time initial consult, psychometrics indicated that both PTSD symptoms MDD were...
Background Preliminary data suggest that focal electrically administered seizure therapy (FEAST) has antidepressant effects and less adverse cognitive than traditional forms of electroconvulsive (ECT). This study compared the impact FEAST ultrabrief pulse, right unilateral (UB-RUL) ECT on suicidal ideation. Methods At 2 sites, patients in a major depressive episode were treated openly with or UB-RUL ECT, depending their preference. The primary outcome measure was scores Beck Scale for...
ABSTRACT Recently we were presented with an interesting twist to the sliding ladder problem viewed in related rates section of most calculus textbooks. Our concerning a that eventually hits ground. At first, those attempting this fell into trap using only rates. Previous work for included higher order systems differential equations solution. This paper discusses new direction modeling issues, several based solutions, and numerical methods solve these models spreadsheet.
