Mental Disease clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The study design is that of a cluster randomised controlled trial The aims of the study were: 1) to assess the quality of care of the residential units for people with long-term mental disorders; 2) to design a training intervention for the staff of the units in the intervention group; 3) to assess the effectiveness of the intervention 4 and 8 months after it ended. The main outcome variable was level of activity of the users. Secondary outcome variables were the QuIRC dimensions. The selection of the sample was by residential units for people with long-term mental disorders. The inclusion criteria were all the middle and high-support residential units in Portugal. Units that had only one type of service users (e.g., mental retardation, dementia) were excluded. The quality of care of the units was assessed with the QuIRC filled on line by the managers of the units and validated with Service Users Interview Schedule, a face-to-face interview with the users (users that could not give informed consent or collaborate in the interview were excluded).
