A screening tool for social anxiety disorder in primary care: data from South Africa
Type: Journal Article
Year: 2012
Publication Place: United States
Abstract: There is little research from low- and middle-income countries examining the psychometric properties of a screening tool for social anxiety disorder. The sensitivity and specificity of the Social Anxiety Screening Questionnaire against the Mini-International Neuropsychiatric Interview as a gold standard in social phobia diagnosis were investigated using analyses of receiver operating characteristics. The "best subsets" selection procedure was conducted to determine the best three to five questions. Three questions on the screening questionnaire that best discriminate between a positive and negative diagnosis of social anxiety disorder on the MINI module were identified. Answering yes to all three of these questions gives a false-positive rate of 0.44 and a false negative rate of 0.11. For this combination, the sensitivity was 0.84, and specificity was 0.67. Additional work is needed to develop a more accurate scale that could help increase the percentage of people who receive appropriate treatment of this debilitating disorder.

A short-term intervention in a multidisciplinary referral clinic for primary care frequent attenders: description of the model, patient characteristics and their use of medical resources
Type: Journal Article
Year: 2002
Publication Place: England
Abstract: BACKGROUND: Frequent attenders in primary care are a professional challenge for family physicians, and the medical costs of their care can be very high. Some of them suffer from somatization and are concerned solely with their physical complaints, although somatic complaints are the most common presentation of anxiety and depression. To assess and treat these patients comprehensively, a multidisciplinary clinic was created in the community. METHODS: This study describes the first 40 patients referred to the clinic. All patients completed a mental health screening questionnaire and a functional assessment of health. The utilization of medical resources was assessed by chart review for the year before and the year after the first encounter in the clinic. The intervention consisted of a comprehensive bio-psychosocial consultation where life history and medical symptoms were woven together into a new narrative. The intervention also included pharmacological treatment and short-term psychological interventions. RESULTS: The majority of referred patients were women and their average age was 52 years. Headache was the leading symptom, followed by fatigue. The mean number of reported symptoms for each individual patient was 10. Mental health problems were mainly somatization, depression and anxiety. The average yearly costs per person of US$4035 were reduced to US$1161 the year following referral. CONCLUSIONS: The integrated approach of the clinic satisfied at least three needs: of the patient, of the referring physician and of the health maintenance organization. The results of this uncontrolled pilot study suggest that this intervention helped to modify illness behaviour, decreasing the costs of medical investigations.

A Single, One-Off Measure of Depression and Anxiety Predicts Future Symptoms, Higher Healthcare Costs, and Lower Quality of Life in Coronary Heart Disease Patients: Analysis from a Multi-Wave, Primary Care Cohort Study
Type: Journal Article
Year: 2016
Publication Place: United States
Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To determine whether a one-off, baseline measure of depression and anxiety in a primary care, coronary heart disease (CHD) population predicts ongoing symptoms, costs, and quality of life across a 3-year follow-up. DESIGN: Longitudinal cohort study. SETTING: 16 General Practice surgeries across South-East London. PARTICIPANTS: 803 adults (70% male, mean age 71 years) contributing up to 7 follow-up points. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Ongoing reporting of symptoms, health care costs, and quality of life. RESULTS: At baseline, 27% of the sample screened positive for symptoms of depression and anxiety, as measured by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). The probability of scoring above the cut-off throughout the follow-up was 71.5% (p<0.001) for those screening positive at baseline, and for those screening negative, the probability of scoring below the cut-off throughout the follow-up was 97.6% (p<0.001). Total health care costs were 39% higher during follow-up for those screening positive (p<0.05). Quality of life as measured by the SF-12 was lower on the mental component during follow-up for those screening positive (-0.75, CI -1.53 to 0.03, p = 0.059), and significantly lower on the physical component (-4.99, CI -6.23 to -.376, p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: A one-off measure for depression and anxiety symptoms in CHD predicts future symptoms, costs, and quality of life over the subsequent three-years. These findings suggest symptoms of depression and anxiety in CHD persist throughout long periods and are detrimental to a patient's quality of life, whilst incurring higher health care costs for primary and secondary care services. Screening for these symptoms at the primary care level is important to identify and manage patients at risk of the negative effects of this comorbidity. Implementation of screening, and possible collaborative care strategies and interventions that help mitigate this risk should be the ongoing focus of researchers and policy-makers.
