- Can you tell me how many times ECT was carried out on patients from 2015 until 2023?
- Can you breakdown these figures by year and sex?
- Can you tell me how many of these treatments were carried out on new patients (Patients who have not received the treatment already)?
- If treatment is not able to be carried out in your area, can you tell me which hospital patients were sent to?
NHS Shetland do not offer ECT. This would be performed in a specialist mental health hospital setting.
