description This case report highlights the use of ECT in an adolescent patient with a COVID-19 infection, which is an area of limited data. The patient received a full course of bitemporal ECT, with a total of 15 treatments administered over four months. The patient responded robustly, with a complete return to her pre-infection baseline mental status, and response has remained durable for one-year post continuation phase ECT taper. Maintenance ECT considerations for catatonia should be determined on a case-by-case basis but was not needed for our patient, given the durability of the response to ECT.
