AI Article Synopsis

  • The study assessed a progress monitoring system used in a private mental health setting with 778 patients undergoing a 2-week cognitive behavioral therapy.
  • Patients who discussed their progress with therapists showed better recovery rates, especially those struggling to achieve positive outcomes.
  • Recommendations were made for therapists to more effectively use progress monitoring feedback, particularly with patients not progressing well, to enhance recovery results.

Article Abstract

The study evaluated the use and effectiveness of a progress monitoring system routinely operational in a private mental health care setting. In a nonrandomized trial in which 778 consecutively admitted patients underwent a 2-week cognitive behavioral therapy intervention, the effectiveness of therapists choosing to use progress monitoring feedback to frame therapist-patient discussions about individuals' progress was evaluated. Patients engaged in discussions involving progress monitoring feedback during the intervention achieved a more consistent recovery rate. Furthermore, individuals that were not-on-track to achieve a positive outcome experienced a boost to recovery immediately after receiving feedback. However, evidence suggested that therapists were not using progress monitoring to primarily focus additional resources on not-on-track patients. Progress monitoring feedback benefited patient recovery. However, guidelines could improve the system by directing therapists to use feedback primarily with patients not on course for a positive therapeutic outcome.

This paper explores how small local health departments (LHDs) motivated staff members, communicated progress toward Public Health Accreditation Board accreditation or Pathways Recognition, and celebrated interim and final accreditation accomplishments. Qualitative key informant interviews were conducted with 22 employees and affiliates of 4 LHDs with jurisdiction populations <50 000. LHDs motivated staff through ownership, creative strategies to monitor and record progress, and meaningful no- or low-cost incentives.

Background: Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) is a common cosmetic concern, often leading to significant psychological distress for the patients. With the widespread application of lasers including ablative fractional resurfacing (AFR) with a 10,600 nm CO laser, PIH caused by lasers is becoming increasingly common. But due to the absence of an appropriate animal research model, our understanding of pathophysiological mechanisms and preventive strategies for PIH remains limited.

Purpose: To investigate the effect of average intraocular pressure (IOP) on the true rate of glaucoma progression (RoP) in the United Kingdom Glaucoma Treatment Study (UKGTS).

Methods: UKGTS participants were randomized to placebo or Latanoprost drops and monitored for up to two years with visual field tests (VF, 24-2 SITA standard), IOP measurements, and optic nerve imaging. We included eyes with at least three structural or functional assessments (VF with <15% false-positive errors).
