Retrospective review of treatment outcome for 63 patients with trichotillomania Keuthen NJ; O'Sullivan RL; Goodchild P; Rodriguez D; Jenike MA; Baer LAm J Psychiatry 1998[Apr]; 155 (4): 560-1OBJECTIVE: The authors' goal was to assess naturalistic treatment outcome in trichotillomania. METHOD: Sixty-three patients who had been treated in a specialty clinic for trichotillomania over a period of 6 years were contacted. The patients were given paper-and-pencil instruments that assessed current severity of hairpulling, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, and psychosocial functioning. RESULTS: Significant mean improvement was found on measures of hairpulling, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, and psychosocial functioning. Improvement in hairpulling was associated with greater depression at the time of their index clinic evaluation as well as more improvement in depression after treatment. CONCLUSIONS: State-of-the-art behavioral and pharmacological treatments offer substantial clinical benefit to patients with trichotillomania, both in hairpulling symptoms and ancillary measures of functioning.|Adolescent[MESH]|Adult[MESH]|Age of Onset[MESH]|Behavior Therapy[MESH]|Combined Modality Therapy[MESH]|Comorbidity[MESH]|Depressive Disorder/psychology/therapy[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Middle Aged[MESH]|Patient Satisfaction[MESH]|Psychiatric Status Rating Scales[MESH]|Retrospective Studies[MESH]|Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors/therapeutic use[MESH]|Sickness Impact Profile[MESH]|Surveys and Questionnaires[MESH]|Treatment Outcome[MESH]|Trichotillomania/drug therapy/psychology/*therapy[MESH] |
