Opis

This clinical guideline on depression is an updated edition of the previous guidance (published in 2004). It was commissioned by NICE and developed by the National Collaborating Centre for Mental Health, and sets out clear, evidence - and consensus-based recommendations for healthcare staff on how to treat and manage depression in adults. Depression affects 6 per cent of adults each year and is the leading cause of suicide. Its symptoms can be disabling and its effects pervasive, impacting on not only the individual patient but also on their families and the wider society. "The NICE Guideline" is an invaluable resource enabling healthcare professionals to recognize, assess and offer effective treatments for this common mental health problem, which can become a chronic disorder if inadequately treated. Many areas of the previous guideline have been updated in this edition. There is a new introduction about depression and current practice and a new chapter on service user and carer experience of care. The evidence reviews of service models and psychological and psychosocial interventions have all been updated and there is a new emphasis on low-intensity psychosocial interventions and an increased range of effective psychological interventions. The chapters on pharmacological interventions provide more detailed advice on sequencing treatments after limited response to initial interventions. This new edition of the guideline also covers the management of subthreshold depressive symptoms, which were not part of the scope of the original guideline. An accompanying CD contains further information about the evidence, including: characteristics of included studies; profile tables that summarize both the quality of the evidence and the results of the evidence synthesis; all meta-analytical data presented as forest plots; and, detailed information about how to use and interpret forest plots. A companion guideline on depression in adults with a chronic physical health problem is also available.
