Around 4.4% of adults in England are affected by generalised anxiety disorder.
It can become chronic if it is not treated - often co-occurring with other
anxiety and depressive disorders - and it is associated with substantial
disability. This guideline is an indispensable tool in enabling healthcare
professionals to identify generalised anxiety disorder in adults and provide the
most effective treatments in a stepped-care framework. It sets out clear,
evidence- and consensus-based recommendations for treatment and
management.
The book presents and appraises the evidence for low- and
high-intensity psychological interventions, drug treatment and other physical
interventions, and also provides insight into the experience of care of people
with generalised anxiety disorder. There is a special focus on the economic
modelling that was undertaken in the areas of drug treatments and computerised
cognitive behavioural therapy.
NICE Mental Health Guidelines
These guidelines
from NICE set out clear recommendations, based on the best available evidence,
for health care professionals on how to work with and implement physical,
psychological and service-level interventions for people with various mental
health conditions.
The book contains the full guidelines that cannot be
obtained in print anywhere else. It brings together all of the evidence that led
to the recommendations made, detailed explanations of the methodology behind
their preparation, plus an overview of the condition covering detection,
diagnosis and assessment, and the full range of treatment and care
approaches.
The accompanying free CD-ROM contains all the data used as
evidence, including:
Included and excluded studies.
Profile tables that summarise both the quality of the evidence and the
results of the evidence synthesis.
All meta-analytical data, presented as forest plots.
Detailed information about how to use and interpret forest plots.
The National Collaborating Centre for Mental Health (NCCMH) was established in 2001 by the UK-based National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) to develop guidance on the appropriate treatment and care of people with mental health problems and then write the clinical guidelines. The NCCMH is a partnership between the Royal College of Psychiatrists and the British Psychological Society.
