These guidelines from the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) set out clear recommendations, based on the best available evidence, for health care professionals on how to work with and implement physical, psychological and service-level interventions for people with various mental health conditions. The books contain the full guideline information that cannot be obtained in print anywhere else. They bring together all of the evidence that led to the various recommendations made, detailed explanations of the methodology behind each guideline's preparation, plus an overview of the relevant mental health condition covering detection, diagnosis and assessment, and the full range of treatment and care approaches. Each one comes with a CD-ROM that includes: All data used as evidence, both included and excluded studies. Profile tables that summarise both the quality of the evidence and the results of the evidence synthesis. All meta-analytical data, presented as forest plots and detailed information on how to use and interpret them.
