title: [Experience using a forced method of insulin coma therapy in schizophrenia].
abstract: Thirteen patients were treated using a method of forced insulin comatose therapy proposed by Avrutskiĭ et al. (1984). In some cases this technique proved poorly effective. On the basis of the experience gained the authors have determined the optimal rate of insulin administration and elaborated a supplementary therapy aimed at preventing the development of complications in cases of residual organic pathology of the brain. The described technique is recommended for clinical utilization, particularly in cases of schizophrenia complicated by residual-organic abnormalities of the brain.
