The authors conducted quality review of outpatient psychopharmacological practice in 180 cases with the screening criteria of the APA Task Force on Psychopharmacological Criteria Development and a subset of 12 criteria involving higher-risk practices. Excessive duration of drug treatment was the most common questionable practice, and no relationship was found between frequency of questionable practices and patients' sex, age, social class, or Global Assessment Scale score. An educational exercise based on the audit resulted in a nonsignificant decrease in the higher-risk practices.
作者依据美国精神病学协会(APA)精神药理学标准制定特别工作组的筛查标准以及涉及高风险操作的12项标准子集,对180例门诊精神药理学实践进行了质量评估。药物治疗时间过长是最常见的可疑操作,且未发现可疑操作的频率与患者的性别、年龄、社会阶层或总体评估量表评分之间存在关联。基于此次审核开展的教育活动使高风险操作出现了不显著的减少。
