  Background: Several countries have developed guidelines for anxiety disorders containing algorithms that summarize the recommended treatment steps for these disorders. It is important to know which patients have a poor prognosis for treatment according to such algorithms. Aims: To investigate the predictive power of variables known to be able to influence treatment prognosis in situations where practice guidelines for anxiety disorders are adhered to. Method: To study the predictive power of variables that are known to be able to influence treatment prognosis, 81 patients who participated in a guideline implementation study and whose treatment was found to adhere to available guidelines were selected. Using logistic regression analysis two models were constructed: one to predict treatment nonresponse; another to predic.. View More»
