WINTER 2012 NEWSLETTER

CLINICAL MONOGRAPHS

#1: Delirium

Developed jointly by APM's Guidelines & Evidence Based Medicine Subcommittee and the EACLPP, the first in a series of clinical monographs—Delirium—is posted in the "Library."

The monographs, brief summaries of evidence-based knowledge about clinical topics seen frequently in PM and C-L psychiatry, condense ever-increasing research and should help inform clinicians' diagnostic and management skills. Click for more...
