Putting measurement-based care into action: a multi-method study of the benefits of integrating routine client feedback in coordinated specialty care programs for early psychosis.
Article in BMC psychiatry, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundMeasurement-based care (MBC) is an effective tool in the delivery of evidence-based practices (EBPs). MBC utilizes feedback loops to share information and drive changes throughout a learning healthcare system. Few studies have demonstrated this practice in team-based care for young people with early psychosis. This paper describes the development of a personalized feedback report derived from routine assessments that is shared with clients and clinicians as part of a MBC process.
methodsWe used a multi-method approach to evaluate the implementation of a personalized feedback report at 5 early psychosis coordinated specialty care programs (CSC). We compared clients enrolled in CSC who did and did not receive a feedback report over the first 6 months of treatment. The sample included 204 clients: 146 who did not receive the feedback report (treatment as usual, TAU) and were enrolled over 2 years, and 58 who received the feedback report. A subset of 67 clients completed measures at both intake and 6-month follow-up, including 42 who received the personalized feedback report and 25 who did not. We compared the two groups with regard to self-reported symptoms, likelihood of completing treatment, and perception of shared decision making. We conducted qualitative interviews with 5 clients and 5 clinicians to identify the benefits and challenges associated with the personalized feedback report.
resultsThe total sample showed significant improvements in shared decision-making and in their intent to complete the program. Post hoc analyses revealed significant increases in the personalized feedback group, and non-significant changes in the TAU group, although group-by-time interactions did not reach statistical significance. The feedback report group engaged in significantly more sessions of Supported Employment and Education (SEE), case management, and peer support, and fewer medication visits over the first 6 months of treatment. Both groups showed significant improvement in symptoms and functioning. Results from the qualitative analysis indicated that the experience of receiving the reports was valuable and validating for both patients and clinicians.
conclusionsA personalized feedback report was integrated into standard of care for early psychosis programs. This process may improve shared decision-making, strengthen the likelihood to stay in treatment, and increase treatment attendance in psychosocial interventions. We posit that this process facilitates recovery-oriented care, strengths-focused treatment planning, enhances intrinsic motivation, and strengthens the therapeutic alliance.
