The guiding questions for this study are: can a U.S. adaptation of a successful Scandinavian approach (TIPS) to early detection substantially reduce the duration of untreated psychosis (DUP) and improve outcomes beyond an established first-episode service (FES)?
The primary aim of this study is:
Early detection, or reducing the duration of untreated psychosis (DUP) can substantially ameliorate the distress and disability caused by psychotic illnesses. The TIPS project in Scandinavia used a combination of public and targeted education campaigns coupled with rapid availability of comprehensive services to improve the identification, referral and early treatment of psychotic illness. By targeting the dual 'bottlenecks' of inadequate mental health literacy and delayed access to effective treatment, TIPS significantly reduced DUP2 and experimentally demonstrated improved clinical presentations and outcomes.
Effective service models for new onset psychosis exist in the U.S. Multi-element specialty 'first-episode' services (FES), highlighted in this FOA, provide care that is adapted to the specific needs of younger patients and their families and can improve symptoms and functional outcomes during the critical early phase of psychotic illnesses. The NIH-funded Specialized Treatment in Early Psychosis (STEP, New Haven) project, included the first U.S.-based randomized controlled trial to establish the feasibility and effectiveness of a public-sector approach to FES.5 The Prevention and Recovery in Early Psychosis (PREP, Boston) clinic has advanced a similar model of care within an analogous public-academic collaboration.
What is required, as the next logical step, is a test of the effectiveness of TIPS' powerful approach to early detection in a policy-relevant U.S. setting, where relatively fragmented pathways to care raise both the challenges and potential public health impact of early detection. The expertise within the investigators investigative team in the design of early detection and the presence of 2 similar, effective, geographically separated and collaborative FES programs (STEP and PREP) presents an excellent opportunity to conduct such a test and thereby advance secondary prevention for psychotic illnesses in the U.S.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Early Detection (ED) | Experimental | This intervention consists of educational campaigns directed at patients & families (who have yet to seek care) and professionals in educational and clinical settings to hasten referral of individuals with new onset psychosis to an established, best-practice first-episode service (i.e. STEP). Interleaved with this educational campaign will be procedures to make the STEP clinic more rapidly responsive to referrals to further shorten the duration of untreated psychosis |
|
| Usual Detection | Active Comparator | This intervention will provide equivalent best practice care without the benefit of an early detection campaign |

| Early Detection (ED) | Behavioral | This intervention consists of educational campaigns directed at patients & families (who have yet to seek care) and professionals in educational and clinical settings to hasten referral of individuals with new onset psychosis to an established, best-practice first-episode service (i.e. STEP). Interleaved with this educational campaign will be procedures to make the STEP clinic more rapidly responsive to referrals to further shorten the duration of untreated psychosis |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Duration of Untreated Psychosis (DUP) | Time from onset of psychosis to first antipsychotic (DUP-Demand); Time from first antipsychotic to enrollment in STEP/PREP (DUP-Supply); Time from onset of psychosis to enrollment in STEP/PREP (DUP-Total) | One year before, during campaign and one year after end of campaign |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Levels of social and occupational functioning | A trained assessor will administer the positive and negative syndrome scale (PANSS) scale to every subject for levels of social and occupational functioning. The PANSS is a medical scale used for measuring symptom severity of participants with schizophrenia. The PANSS rating form contains 7 positive symptom scales, 7 negative system scales, and 16 general psychopathology symptom scales. Participants are rated from 1 to 7 on each symptom scale. The total score is the sum of all scales with a minimum score of 30 and a maximum score of 210. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change in improved labor market / workforce participation and healthcare utilization | A trained assessor will administer the Services Utilization and Resources Form for Schizophrenia (SURF) instrument to assess workforce participation and other measures relevant to healthcare utilization. The SURF is a multi-item form that uses participants' or caregivers' report to document comprehensively the number, type, and duration of health services and consumption of non-health resources, such as criminal justice events and public assistance |
