[Current evidence for various inpatient psychotherapy programs in the treatment of psychoses-A narrative review article]. / Aktuelle Evidenz verschiedener stationärer Psychotherapieprogramme in der Behandlung von Psychosen ­ ein narrativer Übersichtsartikel.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: The analysis of the efficacy of evidence-based psychotherapy for patients with psychotic disorders has mostly been carried out in the outpatient field. In the inpatient field the efficacy is sometimes difficult to assess due to different healthcare systems. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this narrative review is to summarize international guidelines and meta-analyses on the efficacy of inpatient psychotherapeutic treatment strategies for patients with psychotic disorders. Based on this, recommendations for disorder-specific ward concepts for acute and postacute fields are formulated. METHODS: The German S3 guidelines, international guidelines, current meta-analyses and primary studies on psychological interventions in the treatment of psychotic disorders were included. Based on the results, recommendations for the inpatient psychotherapeutic treatment in various phases of treatment were formulated (acute phase and postacute phase). RESULTS: In the acute phase a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBTp) in the individual setting and family interventions in the group setting as well as metacognitive training (MCT acute) is effective and recommended. In the postacute phase, in addition to individual and group CBTp and family interventions, psychoeducation, social skills training and cognitive remediation have been shown to be effective and are recommended. DISCUSSION: The suggested recommendations for concrete interventions in various treatment phases and the evidence base are critically discussed and recommendations for the structure of wards are presented.
