Depression in general practice : underrecognition? Overtreatment? Adequate care!
No full textDit proefschrift geeft een optimistisch beeld van de huidige zorg voor depressieve patiënten in de huisartsenpraktijk i.v.m. eerdere literatuur en mediaberichten. We concluderen dat, de zorg voor depressieve patiënten in de eerste lijn in het algemeen adequaat is, d.w.z. in overeenstemming met aanbevelingen uit geldende richtlijnen.
Ruim twee-derde van de depressieve patiënten werd door de huisarts herkend. Patiënten die psychische problemen met de huisarts bespraken, met meer depressieve symptomen en met tevens een angststoornis werden beter herkend. Het atypische symptoom toegenomen eetlust leidde tot slechtere herkenning.
58% van de depressieve patiënten werd verwezen voor psychologische of psychiatrische zorg. Huisartsen hielden de aanbevelingen voor verwijzing uit de richtlijn hierbij in het oog, patiënten met voorkeur voor psychotherapie, met chronische depressie of suïcidale neigingen werden vaker verwezen.
Ook behandeling met antidepressiva schrijven huisartsen volgens de richtlijn voor. Slechts bij 5,4% van de antidepressiva-gebruikers was sprake van overbehandeling. Bovendien was meer dan de helft van deze overbehandelde patiënten met een goede reden gestart, maar te lang doorbehandeld.
Uit een literatuur-review concludeerden wij dat aanbevelingen voor antidepressiva-gebruik gebaseerd zijn op voldoende bewijs v.w.b. acute behandeling en preventie van terugval gedurende enkele maanden, maar niet voor langdurige onderhoudsbehandeling.
Aanbevelingen voor onderhoudsbehandeling worden ook minder goed gevolgd. Het zijn niet, zoals de richtlijn voorschrijft, patiënten met een chronische of recidiverende depressie die onderhoudsbehandeling krijgen. Wel lijken het patiënten met een slechtere prognose: patiënten met tevens een angststoornis of dysthyme stoornis (langdurige ‘milde’ depressie), patiënten die naast antidepressiva ook kalmerende middelen gebruikten en met recente psychiatrische contacten.
Overall this thesis gives an optimistic picture of current care for depressed patients in primary care compared to previous literature and media reports. We conclude that, in general, the care for depressed patients in primary care is in most cases adequate, i.e. in accordance with ruling guideline recommendations.
The general practitioner recognized over two-thirds of depressed patients. Patients discussing psychological problems with the general practitioner, those with more depressive symptoms and with a concurrent anxiety disorder were better recognized. The atypical symptom increased appetite led to worse recognition.
58% of depressed patients were referred for psychological or psychiatric care. General practitioners took guideline recommendations into account in referring; patients with preference for psychotherapy, chronic depression or suicidal tendency were referred more often.
Treatment with antidepressants was also prescribed according to guideline recommendations. In only 5.4% of antidepressant users it could be called overtreatment. Furthermore, over half of these overtreated patients started with a good reason, but were treated too long according to guideline recommendations.
From review of the literature we conclude that guideline recommendations for antidepressant treatment are thoroughly evidence-based for acute treatment and relapse prevention during several months, but not for maintenance treatment.
Recommendations for maintenance treatment are also less often followed. Maintenance users are not, as the guideline prescribes, patients with chronic or recurrent depression. It does however seem that maintenance antidepressant users are those with a worse prognosis such as patients with comorbid dysthymia or anxiety and patients also receiving sedatives or patients with recent psychiatric contacts.
