The core findings of the GAD-P study (Generalized anxiety and depression in primary care) are summarized and measures to improve the quality of care of patients with generalized anxiety disorders are discussed. In addition to the identification of core research deficits the paper emphasizes the standard use of time-efficient diagnostic screening instruments, because urgently needed improved recognition and diagnosis is the prerequisite for appropriate treatment. Further the role of the media to combat stigma processes, as well as patient education materials to improve compliance and to enhance treatment outcome effects for this neglected disorder that frequently runs a chronic course are highlighted.
总结了广泛性焦虑症与初级保健研究（GAD-P研究）的核心发现，并讨论了提高广泛性焦虑症患者护理质量的措施。除了确定核心研究缺陷外，本文还强调了高效诊断筛查工具的标准使用，因为急需改善识别和诊断是适当治疗的前提。此外，还强调了媒体在消除污名化过程中的作用，以及患者教育材料在改善依从性和提高这种经常呈慢性病程的被忽视疾病的治疗效果方面的作用。
