Brief Summary:
Depressed patients talk differently when they are depressed compared to when they are well. But it is hard to actually measure what the differences are. The study team will record voice samples from patients with mood disturbances, like depression, over the course of their receiving an electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) series. The study team will try and measure or quantify exactly what has changed in their speech and voice. The study team will choose ECT as it is one of the most effective and rapid treatment for depression. The study team will use a service provided by a company, NeuroLex, who has complex computer programs (artificial intelligence, AI) to analyze the voice samples.
