Box 457 St. James, New York 11780 / /4 jail”! 9? b ' Phone: 516 444-2929 516 862—6651 Fax: 516 862-8604 July 23, 1994 TO: Robert Hirschfeld, M.D. FROM: Max Fink, MD. Subject: Ted Hutchinson’s memorandum14 July 94 M Ted is a lay-person who was advised that his son needed ECT in California, and he came up against the community prejudice and legal devices to frustrate its use. He succeeded in getting treatment which was most helpfiil. Since then, he has read widely in ECT, developed a unique knowledge of the legal issues, especially those affecting the FDA, and the role of the anti-psychiatry movement in the US. His ‘alerts’ to members of the ECT community are respected. He was instrumental in getting D. P. Devanand, Tom Bolwig, and Harold Sackeim to compile the data in the reecent review of the pathology of ECT, the review appeared in the recent number of the Am. J. Psychiatry. [He is a co-author]. I take his advice seriously and respect his knowledge. The APA Task Force on ECT, headed by Richard Weiner, was establsihed in response to requests for advice by the FDA in 1981 or 1982. It is still responding to the FDA, and you may wish to get his advice, to correlate your responses.
