The prognostic impact and optimal timing of the Patient Health Questionnaire depression screen on 4-year mortality among hospitalized patients with systolic heart failure
An American Heart Association (AHA) Science Advisory recommends patients with coronary heart disease undergo routine screening for depressive symptoms with the two-stage Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ). However, little is known on the prognostic impact of a positive PHQ screen on heart failure (HF) mortality. (Source: General Hospital Psychiatry)

Mental and behavioral health environments: critical considerations for facility design
The purpose of the study was to identify features in the physical environment that are believed to positively impact staff and patients in psychiatric environments and use these features as the foundation for future research regarding the design of mental and behavioral health facilities.

Mental and Behavioral Health Environments: Critical Considerations for Facility Design
There has been an increase in the number of mental and behavioral health (MBH) facilities built and renovated in the last few years; however, research has not kept pace with the design process. Currently, little is known about facility design in MBH settings, and appropriate policies and standards of best practice have yet to be established. The emergent use of evidence-based design (EBD) strategies in healthcare settings has opened the door for dialogue and research. (Source: General Hospital Psychiatry)

Depression and doctor –patient communication in the emergency department
Depression may adversely affect health outcomes by influencing doctor –patient communication. We aimed to determine the association between depressive symptoms and doctor–patient communication among patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) with a suspected acute coronary syndrome (ACS).

Outcome of multidisciplinary, CBT-focused treatment for pediatric OCD
Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and antidepressant medications are gold standard interventions for pediatric obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) with evidence indicating CBT monotherapy as the single most effective intervention [6]. While these treatments as monotherapies or in combination are associated with response in as many as 80 –85% of children, a sizable percentage of children either do not respond or are partial responders requiring more intensive treatment. There is some evidence that intensive treatment consisting of 1–2 h a day has been effective for youth who have been nonresponders to prior interventio...
