Recommendation from the Community Preventive Services Task Force for Use of Collaborative Care for the Management of Depressive Disorders
No full textThe Community Preventive Services Task Force recommends collaborative care for management of depressive disorders, based on strong evidence of effectiveness in improving depression symptoms, adherence to treatment, response to treatment, and remission and recovery from depression.
The widespread prevalence of depressive disorders and the large disease burden from these disorders is well established. [1] and [2] Primary care remains the most frequent point of entry into the healthcare system for patients with depression symptoms, and nearly 60% of patients with depression continue to receive care at the primary care level.3 Hence, engagement in primary care to reduce morbidity and mortality from depression would include optimizing two processes: screening and treatment. The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommends screening for depression in adults (www.uspreventiveservicestaskforce.org/uspstf/uspsaddepr.htm) and adolescents (www.uspreventiveservicestaskforce.org/uspstf/uspschdepr.htm) in outpatient primary care settings, when adequate systems are in place for efficient diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up for depressive disorders
The Community Preventive Services Task Force\u2019s built environment recommendation to increase physical activity : imprementation resource guide
Get PDFThe Community Preventive Services Task Force (CPSTF) recommends built environment approaches that combine one or more interventions to improve pedestrian or bicycle transportation systems (activity-friendly routes) with one or more land use and community design interventions (everyday destinations). Combined approaches that connect activity-friendly routes to everyday destinations make it safer and more convenient for people of all abilities to walk, run, bike, skate, or use wheelchairs.An activity-friendly route is one that is a direct and convenient connection with everyday destinations, o ering physical protection from cars, or making it easy to cross the street. These routes can include crosswalks, protected bicycle lanes, multi-use trails, and pedestrian bridges. Everyday destinations are places people can get to from where they live by walking, bicycling, or public transit. These destinations can include grocery stores, schools, worksites, libraries, parks, restaurants, cultural and natural landmarks, or healthcare facilities.To increase opportunities for physical activity through the built environment, public health professionals can work in partnership with multiple sectors, particularly transportation, land use, and community planning, but also education, parks and recreation, economic development, and community organizing.CS 284260-Bbeactive-implementation-resource-guide-508.pdf201
