Quick Reference Guide to the American Psychiatric Association Practice Guidelines for the Treatment of Psychiatric Disorders 2002

This volume contains quick reference guides (QRG's) to all of the published "APA Practice Guidelines". QRG's are created by abstracting the crucial information from the text of the full guideline, with greatest emphasis placed on retaining the material most directly relevant to the treatment decision making, and are intended for day-to-day work with patients. The eleven Practice Guidleines are: "Psychiatric Evaluation of Adults"; "Delirium"; "Alzheimer's Disease and Other Dementias of Late Life"; "Substance Use Disorder"; "Alcohol, Cocaine, Opioids"; "Schizophrenia"; "Major Depressive Disorder", 2nd ed; "Bipolar Disorder", 2nd ed; "Panic Disorder"; "Eating Disorders", 2nd ed; "Borderline Personality Disorder"; and "HIV/AIDS".
