MTP 104 Clinical questions to be addressed:
How should primary care physicians screen for common psychiatric disorders in a busy practice? Are there simple validated tools?
Is “collaborative care” (i.e., primary care physician and mental health professional) more effective than usual care for the treatment of common psychiatric disorders in primary care?
How should the initial treatment regimen be selected? When can treatment be stopped?
What factors predict treatment resistance? How should these patients be managed?
