BACKGROUND: Bipolar Affective Disorder (BPAD) accounts for 10-25% of all mood disorders in the geriatric population and 5% of all inpatient admissions to geropsychiatric units. Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is an effective treatment for all phases of BPAD, though only a few studies have focused on BPAD in the geriatric population. This study examines the safety and efficacy of ultra-brief right unilateral (UBRUL) ECT for patients with late-life bipolar depression (BD).
METHODS: A retrospective chart review was conducted of patients with late-life BD who received UBRUL ECT treatments. Symptomatic response was measured using pre- and post-ECT Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology (QIDS-SR16) and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II) scores. Clinical improvement and cognitive change were measured using Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I) and Electroconvulsive Cognitive Assessment (ECCA) scores.
RESULTS: Twenty-Seven elderly patients (mean age 69.1 ± 7.7 years) were included in the analysis. Baseline QIDS-SR16 was 17.3 ± 5.3 and BDI-II 30.0 ± 9.2. 80.0% (16/20) and 57.1% (4/7) of patients achieved response (50.0% decline) in their QIDS-SR16 and BDI-II scores, respectively. Remission rates in QIDS-SR16 (post-ECT scores ≤5) and BDI-II (post-ECT scores ≤12) were 65.0% (13/20) and 42.9% (3/7), respectively. Mean QIDS-SR16 and BDI-II scores were reduced by a statistically significant 68.2% and 50.5%, respectively (two-tailed, paired p-values <0.01) after ECT. CGI-I of ≤2 was attained by 85.2% (23/27) of patients. 85.7% (12/14) of patients saw no change or improvement in ECCA scores.
LIMITATIONS: Inherent complications of chart review regarding quality, availability, and homogeny of data.
CONCLUSIONS: UBRUL ECT is a safe and effective treatment for patients presenting with late-life BD.
