I think ECT was developed as a safer way to induce seizures than by using insulin shock. Anyway, here is the result of the first prospective study of cognitive function and ECT, published in 2007. Think of that, no one had ever systematically studied pre- and post-ECT cognitive function before 2007. Sackheim, one of the most vociferous proponents of ECT, is the lead author.
