A method in electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) to use ictal EEG data for clinical determination of the adequacy of an induced seizure in a patient. The method includes employing an ECT device to apply electricity to the patient in an ECT session to induce seizure activity. The electroencephalographic (EEG) data is detected during the seizure and selected EEG data parameters are derived therefrom. Next, the likely adequacy of the induced seizure is computed by comparing the selected EEG data parameters of the patient to ictal EEG data parameters wherein the adequacy of the corresponding seizure or seizures is known, and the computed likely therapeutic adequacy of the induced seizure is displayed.
