Profile of the key figure treatment outcome psychiatry, rated by the therapists

About the indicator «Treatment outcome psychiatry»

Measured as reduction of symptom load between admission and discharge. The two measurements are done by both the therapists and the patients, resulting in two values: The outcome from the perspective of the therapists (external assessement) and the patients (self assessement).

The result are risk adjusted by the ANQ (National group for quality development in Swiss hospitals and clinics) and thus made comparable.

Strengths:

The methodics were developed by the ANQ in collaboration with experts and the psychiatric clinics, thus are broadly supported. Internationally well accepted measuring instruments are being used: The Health of the Nation Outcome Scale (HoNOS) for the measurement by the therapists and the Brief Symptom Checklist (BSCL) for the self-assessement by the patients. The analysis is performed by a renowned reasearch institute.

Limits:

The methods of the measurements and the risk-adjustment have been critically questioned: It is not proven, that good results at the time of discharge are sustainable. It was argued that there are little means to control possible data manipulation. Other experts doubt the risk-adjustment process. In the self-assessement, low response rates can compromize validity. Furthermore it has been assumed, that some psychiatric patients might not be capable of assessing their own condition appropriately.
