New modalities of assessment and treatment planning in depression: the sequential approach
Type: Journal Article
Year: 2010
Publication Place: New Zealand
Abstract: The sequential model of treatment for depression, i.e. the use of psychotherapy in patients who have remitted from a major depressive disorder after a course of pharmacotherapy, is an intensive two-stage approach that derives from the awareness that one course of treatment is unlikely to provide a solution to all the symptoms of patients. The aim of the sequential approach is to provide different types of treatment for as long as considered necessary in different phases of illness as determined by repeated assessments. The treatment strategies are chosen on the basis of the symptoms identified and not as predefined options. The sequential model emphasizes consideration of subclinical and residual symptomatology according to the organizing principles of macro-analysis (a relationship between co-occurring symptoms and problems is established on the basis of where treatment should commence in the first place). Diagnostic endpoints (i.e. DSM diagnoses), the customary guidance of treatment planning, are replaced by conceptualization of disorders as 'transfer stations', which are amenable to longitudinal verification and modification. The aim of this systematic review was to survey the literature concerned with the sequential approach to the treatment of depression. Randomized controlled trials were identified using MEDLINE and a manual search of the literature. In seven of the eight studies that were identified, the sequential use of pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy was found to improve long-term outcome after termination of treatment compared with clinical management and treatment as usual. Nevertheless, data on this approach are limited and more studies are necessary for detailing the various clinical steps associated with it. The sequential approach calls for a re-assessment of the design of comparative clinical trials. It allows randomization of patients who are already in treatment and assignment of them to treatment alternatives according to stages of development of their illness and not simply to disease classification. The model is thus more in line with the chronicity of mood disorders compared to the standard randomized controlled trial, which is based on the acute disease model.

New systems of care for substance use disorders: treatment, finance, and technology under health care reform
Type: Journal Article
Year: 2012
Publication Place: United States
Abstract: This article outlined ways in which persons with addiction are currently underserved by our current health care system. However, with the coming broad scale reforms to our health care system, the access to and availability of high-quality care for substance use disorders will increase. Addiction treatments will continue to be offered through traditional substance abuse care systems, but these will be more integrated with primary care, and less separated as treatment facilities leverage opportunities to blend services, financing mechanisms, and health information systems under federally driven incentive programs. To further these reforms, vigilance will be needed by consumers, clinicians, and policy makers to assure that the unmet treatment needs of individuals with addiction are addressed. Embedded in this article are essential recommendations to facilitate the improvement of care for substance use disorders under health care reform. Ultimately, as addiction care acquires more of the "look and feel" of mainstream medicine, it is important to be mindful of preexisting trends in health care delivery overall that are reflected in recent health reform legislation. Within the world of addiction care, clinicians must move beyond their self-imposed "stigmatization" and sequestration of specialty addiction treatment. The problem for addiction care, as it becomes more "mainstream," is to not comfortably feel that general slogans like "Treatment Works," as promoted by Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's Center for Substance Abuse Treatment during its annual Recovery Month celebrations, will meet the expectations of stakeholders outside the specialty addiction treatment community. Rather, the problem is to show exactly how addiction treatment works, and to what extent it works-there have to be metrics showing changes in symptom level or functional outcome, changes in health care utilization, improvements in workplace attendance and productivity, or other measures. At minimum, clinicians will be required to demonstrate that their new systems of care and future clinical activity are in conformance with overall standards of "best practice" in health care.
