| Summary |
This volume for healthcare professionals consists of a clinical practice guideline on the treatment and management of depression in people with a chronic physical health problem (such as cancer, diabetes, heart disease and stroke), which was commissioned by the UK's National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence and developed by the National Collaborating Centre for Mental Health. It outlines the methods used to develop the guideline, how these patients experience care, the identification of depression, and service-level, psychosocial, psychological, and pharmacological interventions. The accompanying CD contains further information about the evidence, including characteristics of included studies, profile tables that summarize the quality of the evidence and the results of the evidence synthesis, all meta-analytical data presented as forest plots, and information on how to use and interpret them |
