Recommendation
Deeply concerned at the reported number of cases relating to the use of electroconvulsive therapy, at its possible use as a compulsory treatment, and that such treatment was reportedly performed more often on women, CRPD recommended that Sweden abolish the use of non-consensual practices on persons with psychosocial disabilities in medical institutions and provide staff training on the prevention of torture.
