  • Title: A double-blind study of electrosleep for anxiety and insomnia.
    Author: Moore JA, Mellor CS, Standage KF, Strong H.
    Journal: Biol Psychiatry; 1975 Feb; 10(1):59-63. PubMed ID: 1091305.
    Abstract:
    Despite largely negative findings, several subjects reported a remarkable improvement in their symptoms some two to three weeks after electrosleep (ES) treatment was concluded, so that it remains unclear whether or not ES may be an effective treatment. The clinical experience reported suggests that five half-hour ES treatments may not be sufficient to produce significant changes in the patient's anxiety and insomnia. Further investigations are required to examine the effects of varying durations of treatment.
