Web-based 'early warning' predictive modeling system enhances preventive care.

Abstract

Shifting the focus of disease management from treatment to prevention. There is nothing new about the concept of health risk assessment. Most of these tools seek to identify people with chronic disease so that interventions can be employed. But a cadre of DM firms think that approach does not go far enough. See how one firm is trying to move the focus from treatment to prevention of disease in the first place.

[Acute and transient psychotic disorders (ICD-10: F23). Empirical data and implications for therapy].

The defining clinical features of acute and transient psychotic disorders (ICD-10: F23) are an acute onset and a duration of psychotic symptoms not exceeding 1-3 months. Previous empirical investigations show that patients with this diagnosis have a favourable prognosis, but also a high risk of relapses (58-77%). The diagnostic stability in the further course of illness seems to be low (34-73%) with a frequent diagnostic change to schizophrenia and affective disorders being observed. As yet, data from controlled clinical trials regarding therapy do not exist. The implications for the treatment of acute and transient psychotic disorders are discussed with this background.
