The PHQ-9 is the nine item depression scale of the Patient Health Questionnaire. The PHQ-9 is based directly on the diagnostic criteria for major depressive disorder in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual Fourth Edition (DSM-IV). Each item on the questionnaire is scored from 0-3 and this means that a person can score between 0 (no symptoms) and 27 (severe symptoms) for depression. A negative change indicates improvement in the subject's depression symptoms, and a positive change indicates a worsening of the subject's depression symptoms.

The Genesight algorithm presents recommendations for antidepressants and antipsychotics in "bin status" associated with colors. Green indicates "Use as Directed." Yellow indicates "Use with Caution." Red indicates "Use with Increased Caution and with More Frequent Monitoring." Definitions of the depression questionnaires are found in previous outcome measures. A negative change indicates improvement in the subject's depression/anxiety symptoms, and a positive change indicates a worsening of the subject's depression/anxiety symptoms.

Physicians were directed to complete a survey for each participant detailing their experiences during the study period.

Physicians reported on their perception of each participant's satisfaction with their care only for patients who completed the 8-week study. Physicians were directed to complete a survey for each participant detaining their experience during the study period.

Definitions of the depression questionnaires are found in previous outcome measures. Definition of responder: a participant who had 50% or higher reduction in psychiatric score from baseline.

Definitions of the depression questionnaires are found in previous outcome measures. Definition of remitter: a participant with score less than or equal to certain value (HAMD-17 <=7, QIDS-C16<=5, PHQ-9<5).

The HAMD-17 is a 17-item scale that evaluates depressed mood, vegetative and cognitive symptoms of depression, and co-morbid anxiety symptoms. The 17 items are rated on either a 5-point (0-4) or a 3-point (0-2) scale. In general, the 5 point scale items use a rating of 0=absent; 1=doubtful to mild; 2=mild to moderate; 3=moderate to severe; 4=very severe. The 3-point scale items use a rating of 0=absent; 1=probable or mild; 2=definite. The total HAMD-17 score ranges from 0 (not ill) to 52 (severely ill). A negative change indicates improvement in the subject's depression/anxiety symptoms, and a positive change indicates a worsening of the subject's depression/anxiety symptoms.

This analysis was performed on subjects who completed the study. There were 8 out of 72 patients in the guided arm and 12 out of 93 patients in the unguided arm who did not have assigned medication color in green/yellow/red. The number analyzed per row is indicated as (n=guided,unguided).

There were 8 out of 72 patients in the guided arm and 12 out of 93 patients in the unguided arm who did not have assigned medication color in green/yellow/red. The number analyzed per row is indicated as (n=guided,unguided). One subject in the guided arm (green/yellow) did not complete the PHQ-9 questionnaire at 8 weeks.

All subjects were evaluated for a bin status, but not all the arms had subjects assigned to every bin status (green, yellow, or red). Bin status for each category title is reported as (n=Guided, Unguided).

Physicians were directed to complete a survey for each participant detailing their experiences during the study period.

The medication changes of patients were recorded only for patients who completed the 8-week study (n=72,93 for guided and unguided arms). For each row below, the number of subjects analyzed is indicated by (n=guided, unguided) arms.

Physicians reported on their perception of each participant's satisfaction with their care only for patients who completed the 8-week study. Physicians were directed to complete a survey for each participant detaining their experience during the study period.

Physicians completed surveys for 89 participants (96%) from the unguided group, and for 37 participants (51.4%) from the guided group. For each row below, the number of subjects analyzed is indicated by (n=guided, unguided) arms. For the first row, one of the physicians who completed the survey did not answer this question.
