Economic and Clinical Outcomes of Attendance in Psychosis Services Using SMS. (ECO APSS)

14. února 2013 aktualizováno: Daniel Hayes, King's College London

Economic and Clinical Outcomes of Attendance in Psychosis Services Using SMS: The ECO APSS Randomized Controlled Trial

The aim of this research is to find out if mobile phone text message reminders of appointments can help to address missed appointments in Psychosis Community Services. Another aim is to examine if fewer missed appointments result in clinical benefits for service users and in lower costs for Psychosis Community Services over a period of 6 months. 600 users from 2 London Psychosis Community Services will take part in this research. Each participant will be put into one of two groups, as s/he joins the study: In the first (experimental) group, each participant will receive appointment reminders for 6 months (7 and 1 day/s before each appointment), starting with the first available opportunity upon joining the study. In the second (control) group, each participant will not receive appointment reminders for 6 months. The choice of group for each individual will be made at random by a computer. Clinical information will be collected for 6 months from the time each participant joins the study, using, with his or her consent, their anonymised electronic medical records. The following clinical information will be compared between the experimental and control groups: Attendance of appointments, number of inpatient admissions, number of days in inpatient care, number of inpatient admissions under the mental health treatment act, number of referrals to a home treatment team, number of times patient has changed medication, health and social functioning. Service use, service costs and the cost-effectiveness of the reminder system will also be examined. Towards the end of their participation, service users, as well as mental health professionals, will be invited to express their views, concerns and suggestions in relation to the reminder service by completing a brief anonymised (service users) or anonymous (staff) questionnaire

Economic outcome: Use of Psychosis Services and impact on cost
Časové okno: From baseline to end of intervention (6 months)
Data on the use of services over the follow-up period will be combined with appropriate unit cost information (Curtis, 2011; Department of health, 2012). Service costs will be compared between the experimental (SMS intervention) and control (No SMS intervention)groups. Cost data often follow a skewed distribution and so bootstrap methods will be employed

Economic outcome: cost effectiveness of the SMS intervention
Časové okno: 1 year after baseline
The cost of the actual intervention will be negligible given the extent of general SMS use. However, there could be an impact on service costs and this will be estimated. Data on the use of services over the follow-up period (see below for details) will be combined with appropriate unit cost information (Curtis, 2011; Department of health, 2012). Cost-effectiveness will be assessed by combining the cost data with HoNOS scores using an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio. Uncertainty around the cost-effectiveness estimates will be explored using cost-effectiveness planes and cost-effectiveness acceptability curves.
