Zusammenfassung
Für den Erfolg einer EKT gibt es nur einige wenige klinische Prädiktoren. Bereits in den fünfziger Jahren des letzten Jahrhunderts wurden psycho-pathologische Prädiktoren untersucht. Diese sind auf heutige Verhältnisse nur schwer übertragbar. Es werden hier nur Arbeiten aus den 15 letzten Jahren berücksichtigt, da sie die modernen Klassifikationssysteme DSM-III-R DSM-IV und ICD-9 bzw. ICD-10 verwenden und die Kurzimpulstechnik und nicht die Sinuswellentechnik nutzt. Der melancholische Subtyp der Depression weist wahrscheinlich eine etwas bessere Responderquote auf (zur Übersicht Abrams 1997; APA u. Weiner 2001) als der depressive Typ ohne melancholische oder somatische Symptome. Besonders erfolgreich ist die EKT bei Patienten mit psychomotorischer Verlangsamung (Sobin et al. 1996; Hickie et al. 1990a; Hickie et al. 1996b). Außerdem besteht weitreichender Konsens, dass Patienten mit psychotischer Depression besonders von der EKT profitieren (APA u. Weiner 2001; Sobin et al. 1996; Pande et al. 1990; Parker et al. 1992), sie sind zusätzlich stark suizidgefährdet (APA u. Weiner 2001; Roose et al. 1983).
