description A prospective double blind study was conducted to evaluate the role of E.C.T. in schizophrenia. Before the start of the trial patients were kept on chlorpromazine in adequate dosage for 30 days. Those who showed fifty percent or more improvement during this period were excluded. All patients were given eight modified or simulated E.C.T.s. The patients were followed up for one month. E.C.T. did not show any added advantage over chlorpromazine either initially or during short term follow-up.
