Delivery of Evidence-Based Treatment for Multiple Anxiety Disorders in Primary Care: A Randomized Controlled Trial

The American Medical Association published the report titled, Delivery of Evidence-Based Treatment for Multiple Anxiety Disorders in Primary Care following their randomized controlled trial in May 2010. The trial was to determine whether a flexible treatment-delivery model for multiple primary care anxiety disorders would be better than usual care (UC). The trial compared the treatments in 17 primary care clinics in 4 cities between 2006 and 2008 of 1004 patients with anxiety disorders, aged 18 to 75 years old. The report summarizes information on the trial's context, methods, intervention, main outcome measures, and results.
