Summary
Both ketamine and electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) show promise for severe depression that doesn't respond to standard treatments. While ECT remains the gold standard, ketamine offers a less invasive option with rapid results. Recent findings suggest comparable effectiveness between the two, though each has distinct advantages: ECT may be more durable, while ketamine can provide quick relief with fewer side effects.
