title: Seizure Generalization and Unilateral Electroconvulsive Therapy.
abstract: The author responds to Ottosson's exposition of the variables that determine the relative efficacies of unilateral and bilateral ECT. To Ottosson's prescription for maximizing the therapeutic impact of unilateral ECT, he adds the administration of a markedly suprathreshold brief pulse stimulus train of.5 to 1.5 ms pulse width and >/=2 s duration.
