Improving maternal perinatal mental health: integrated care for all women versus screening for depression
Type: Journal Article
Authors: L. Laios, I. Rio, F. Judd
Year: 2013
Publication Place: England
Abstract: OBJECTIVE: The objective of this article is to highlight the debate about universal routine screening and psychosocial assessment in the perinatal period, and suggest an alternative/additional approach to improving maternal perinatal mental illness. CONCLUSIONS: Universal routine screening and psychosocial assessment in the perinatal period has been introduced in Australia despite a lack of evidence that this affects perinatal maternal morbidity. Furthermore, this approach is not designed to detect maternal illnesses such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, although it is these women and their infants who have the highest rates of morbidity and mortality. We propose that any approach to improving maternal perinatal mental health should be tailored to particular situations and populations, with mental health care (inclusive of all mental illness, not just depression) integrated into, and thus a routine aspect of, maternity care provided to all women throughout the perinatal period.

Improving medication safety in primary care using electronic health records
Type: Journal Article
Authors: L. S. Nemeth, A. M. Wessell
Year: 2010
Publication Place: United States
Abstract: OBJECTIVES: Electronic health record (EHR) systems offer promising tools to assist clinicians and staff with improving medication safety, yet many of the decision support components within these information systems are not well used. The aim of this study was to identify the strategies planned by primary care practices participating in a 2-year medication safety quality improvement intervention within the Practice Partner Research Network. METHODS: A theoretical model for primary care practice improvement was used to foster team-based approaches to prioritizing performance, system redesign, better use of EHR tools, and patient activation. The intervention included network meetings, site visits and performance reports. Improvement plans were qualitatively evaluated from field notes and organized to present a comprehensive approach to improving medication safety in primary care using EHRs. RESULTS: A total of 32 distinct plans and 11 common strategies were developed by practices to improve adherence with prescribing and monitoring indicators. Common plans included enhancing medication reconciliation to improve the accuracy of medication lists, using Practice Partner Research Network reports to identify patients meeting criteria for preventable medication errors, and customizing and applying EHR decision support tools for medication dosing, drug-disease interactions, and monitoring. CONCLUSIONS: Medication safety might be improved by implementing specific strategies within the primary care setting. Further evaluation is needed to provide an evidence base for improvement.

Improving mental health assessment and service planning practices for older adults: A controlled comparison study
Type: Journal Article
Authors: S. J. Bartels, K. M. Miles, A. D. Van Citters, B. P. Forester, M. J. Cohen, H. Xie
Year: 2005
Publication Place: United States
Abstract: This study evaluated the effectiveness of a guided assessment and service planning intervention in improving the clinical practices of non-physician community mental health providers caring for older persons. Thirteen agencies, 44 clinicians, and 100 consumers (age 60 and older) were assigned to the intervention or a comparison group receiving usual care. Baseline interviews of clinicians and chart reviews found that clinicians' routine evaluation and service planning practices showed inattention to key domains such as substance abuse (over 33% of clinicians), suicide risk and dangerous behaviors (over 40%), and caregiver burden and risk of neglect or abuse (over 75%). At 1-year follow-up, the intervention was associated with increased rates of routine assessments of major symptom, functioning, and support domains. There was also significant improvement in the specificity of treatment planning within the intervention condition. Implications for quality improvement are discussed.

Improving mental health treatments through comparative effectiveness research
Type: Journal Article
Authors: P. S. Wang, C. M. Ulbricht, M. Schoenbaum
Year: 2009
Publication Place: United States
Abstract: There is a pressing need for comparative effectiveness research to improve mental health treatments. Although U.S. mental health spending has increased dramatically, mainly because of the rapid adoption of newer psychotropic medications, fewer than a quarter of people with serious mental illnesses receive appropriate care. Because of a general lack of information on the relative effectiveness of different treatments, payers are uncertain about the value of current spending, which in turn may deter new investments to reduce unmet need. We use several recent comparative effectiveness trials to illustrate the potential value of such research for improving practice and policy.

Improving mental healthcare by primary care physicians in British Columbia
Type: Journal Article
Authors: R. Weinerman, H. Campbell, M. Miller, J. Stretch, L. Kallstrom, H. Kadlec, M. Hollander
Year: 2011
Publication Place: Canada
Abstract: This article describes a new and innovative training program to assist family physicians to better care for their patients with mental health conditions. Trained family physician leaders train other family physicians. The training package includes a wide range of tools that can be used by physicians in their own offices. Preliminary results indicate that physicians want to be trained, and data indicate a high degree of success for the training module. Some 91% of physicians who attended the training indicated that it had improved their practice, and 94% indicated that it had improved patient care. The training materials are online for those who wish to learn more.
