A substantial minority of patients either fail to gain a benefit from the treatments offered to them, or they outright worsen by the time they leave treatment. Intervening in a timely fashion with such individuals cannot occur if practitioners are unaware of which cases are likely to have this outcome. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003ePrevention of Treatment Failure\u003c\/i\u003e describes procedures and techniques that can be used by clinical practitioners and administrators to identify patients who are at risk for treatment failure. The book summarizes evidence that convincingly shows that a shift in routine care is needed, and that such a shift can be accomplished easily through integrating specific methods of monitoring patient treatment response on a frequent basis in routine care. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Treatment response is placed in the context of historical views of healthy functioning and operationalized through the use of brief self-report scales. Providing alert-signals to therapists, along with problem-solving tools, is suggested as an evidence-based practice that substantially reduces patient deterioration and increases the chances of the return to normal functioning. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e The book also provides illustrations on how accumulated data resulting from monitoring patient treatment response can be used to improve systems of care. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e Preface\u003cbr\u003e Introduction\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I: Foundations and Contexts for a New Paradigm\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Chapter  : Setting the Stage for Formally Tracking Client Change: The Context of Care\u003cbr\u003e Chapter 2: What Is Psychotherapy Outcome and How Is It Measured in Contrasting Research Paradigms?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart II: Measuring and Predicting Treatment Outcome\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Chapter 3: Measures for Tracking Patient Treatment Response and Their Characteristics\u003cbr\u003e Chapter 4: Predicting Negative Treatment Outcome: Methods and Estimates of Accuracy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart III: The Evidence Base\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Chapter 5: Using Progress Feedback to Inform Treatment: Conceptual Issues and Initial Findings\u003cbr\u003e Chapter  : Beyond Progress Feedback: The Effects of Clinical Problem-Solving Tools\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart IV: Illustrations of Practice-Based Evidence for Outcomes Management at the System Level\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Chapter 7: Therapist Effects\u003cbr\u003e Chapter 8: Using Outcome Data to Improve the Effects of Psychotherapy: Some Illustrations\u003cbr\u003e Chapter 9: Summary, Implications, and Future Directions\u003cbr\u003e References\u003cbr\u003e Index\u003cbr\u003e About the Author \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"American Psychological Association","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52584791441688,"sku":"9781433807824","price":39.89,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/prevention-of-treatment-failure-the-use-of-measuring-monitoring-and-feedback-in-clinical-practice-hardback-9781433807824","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
