Follow-up study of schizophrenic patients initially treated with home care

S Pai and EJ Roberts

A follow-up enquiry was carried out after two years on 54 patients who had earlier participated in a controlled experiment on home-care through a community nurse in Bangalore. Thirty seven of these patients could be contacted, of whom 21 had undergone the experimental care (home care) and 16 were from the control group, which had been treated by hospital admission. It was found that the experimental subjects had maintained a significantly better clinical status than the controls, and had been readmitted less often.
