  • Title: Controlled comparison of day-hospital and outpatient treatment for neurotic disorders.
    Author: Tyrer PJ, Remington M.
    Journal: Lancet; 1979 May 12; 1(8124):1014-6. PubMed ID: 86727.
    Abstract:
    106 patients with anxiety, phobic, and depressive neuroses referred to the outpatient clinics of 6 psychiatrists were randomly assigned to outpatient care or two forms of psychiatric day care. Ratings of symptoms and social adjustment were recorded before treatment and after 4 and 8 months in 89 patients. There were no important differences in the outcome of day care and outpatient treatment although patients were more satisfied with the outpatient service. Because outpatient care is more economical of time and personnel it should be preferred to psychiatric day care for many neurotic disorders.
