Description:
Quick
Reference to the American Psychiatric Association Practice
Guidelines for the Treatment of Psychiatric Disorders, Compendium
2004
powered by Skyscape
Publisher: American Psychiatric Publishing,
Inc.
Contains Quick Reference Guides (QRGs) to all of the
published APA Practice Guidelines. QRGs are created by abstracting
the crucial information from the text of the full guideline, with
greatest emphasis placed on retaining the material most directly
relevant to the treatment decision making, and are intended for
day-to-day work with patients.
This compendium contains 10 Quick Reference Guides:
Alzheimer's Disease and Other Dementias of Late
Life
Borderline Personality Disorder
Bipolar Disorder
Delirium
Eating Disorders
HIV/AIDS
Major Depressive Disorder
Panic Disorder
Schizophrenia
Suicide
Each guide is derived from the full text of a practice
guideline developed by the American Psychiatric Association (APA)
and published originally in The American Journal of Psychiatry. The
purpose of these QRGs is to facilitate clinical use of APA's
practice guidelines by physicians. Although the practice guidelines
provide detailed recommendations for treatment and comprehensively
describe the evidence to support those recommendations, their
length and text format do not allow for easy use in the
psychiatrist's day-to-day work with patients.
Crucial information is abstracted from the full guideline to ensure
that the QRG closely follows the wording of the parent guideline.
The abstracted text is then shortened further, with greatest
emphasis placed on material most directly relevant to treatment
decision making. Thus, material about diagnosis, epidemiology, and
other background information is not included. Similarly, because of
constraints on length, most of the information regarding treatment
for special populations is excluded. The QRG is reviewed and
approved by the Executive Committee for Practice Guidelines
Central to proper use of these QRGs is recognition that they do not
stand alone. The psychiatrist using them should be familiar with
the full-text practice guideline on which each QRG is based. For
clarification of a recommendation or for a review of the evidence
supporting a particular strategy, the psychiatrist will find it
helpful to return to the guideline. With rare exception the QRG
faithfully reflects the content of the guideline. Exceptions are
specifically noted in the QRG.
Each quick reference guide presents the major recommendations and
their sequencing with enough detail to be both clinically helpful
and practical to use.
