Intervención domiciliaria en psicosis: Una revisión sistemática

This theoretical study reviews the main findings and research on home-based treatment for psychosis. The principal purpose was to analyze the various types of home-based service and make recommendations for a service that would meet the needs of both first-episode and resistant patients. We compare the Early Intervention Service, which aims to reduce the range of untreated psychosis (DUP) with other types of home-care and similar interventions that have already been implemented: Crisis resolution home teams (CRHTs), Open Dialogue Approach (ODA), social skills training (SST) and foster homes. Method. We searched electronic bibliographic databases including PubMed, PsycINFO, and Discovery for relevant publications appearing between 2005 and 2015. Ninetythree publications were deemed eligible for inclusion; 9 of these were systematic reviews and the rest were scientific papers or books. Discussion. We describe in this review the most widely used home-based interventions, including individual and family therapy. Multidisciplinary teams carry out all the interventions discussed. There does not appear to be a form of psychotherapy, which is effective in treating resistant patients. Conclusions. Home-based interventions improve adherence to treatment, everyday living and social skills and also have a beneficial impact on family conflicts and other social conflicts. As a whole result, the number of incomes is reduced, patients' quality of life and autonomy are increased and inclusion and community living are improved.
