Abstract
(type = abstract)
Recent trends within inpatient psychiatry have led to shorter lengths of stay, lower reimbursement rates, and a general decline in resources for treatment providers. Inpatient psychotherapy programming must adapt to this changing landscape in order remain effective. Individuals with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) are the largest subgroup seeking inpatient care, making the treatment of MDD a key priority in this regard. Currently, there is no well-established, empirically supported, psychosocial treatment designed for inpatients with MDD. Within this context, inpatient Group Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (G-CBT) offers a pragmatic, cost-efficient, and empirically driven solution for the development of psychotherapy programming for this population. The present study evaluated the feasibility and effectiveness of an inpatient G-CBT program implemented on a women’s inpatient unit. A total of 159 women diagnosed with MDD, Bipolar I Disorder – Current Episode Depressed, Bipolar II Disorder, Depressive Disorder NOS, and Adjustment Disorder with Depressed Mood were given the Beck Depression Inventory – Second Edition at admission and discharge from the program. Attendance rates at G-CBT sessions were high, indicating that the treatment was well tolerated. A statistically significant decrease in depressive symptoms was observed at post-treatment. The obtained effect size (d=1.30) was lower, but comparable, to findings from randomized controlled trials of individual outpatient CBT and controlled studies of individual inpatient CBT. Reliable and clinically significant improvement was observed for the majority of the sample. Overall, the findings indicate that inpatient G-CBT for MDD is a promising and worthwhile treatment approach deserving of future study.
