Tóm tắt

Background: Millions of traumatized refugees worldwide have resettled in the United States. For one of the largest, the Cambodian community, having their mental health needs met has been a continuing challenge. A multicomponent health information technology screening tool was designed to aid provider recognition and treatment of major depressive disorder and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in the primary care setting. Methods: In a clustered randomized controlled trial, 18 primary care providers were randomized to receive access to a multicomponent health information technology mental health screening intervention, or to a minimal intervention control group; 390 Cambodian American patients empaneled to participating providers were assigned to the providers’ randomized group. Results: Electronic screening revealed that 65% of patients screened positive for depression and 34% screened positive for PTSD. Multilevel mixed effects logistic models, accounting for clustering structure, indicated that providers in the intervention were more likely to diagnose depression [odds ratio (OR), 6.5; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.48–28.79; P=0.013] and PTSD (OR, 23.3; 95% CI, 2.99–151.62; P=0.002) among those diagnosed during screening, relative to the control group. Providers in the intervention were more likely to provide evidence-based guideline (OR, 4.02; 95% CI, 1.01–16.06; P=0.049) and trauma-informed (OR, 15.8; 95% CI, 3.47–71.6; P<0.001) care in unadjusted models, relative to the control group. Guideline care, but not trauma-informed care, was associated with decreased depression at 12 weeks in both study groups (P=0.003), and neither was associated with PTSD outcomes at 12 weeks. Conclusions: This innovative approach offers the potential for training primary care providers to diagnose and treat traumatized patients, the majority of whom seek mental health care in primary care (ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT03191929).
