HTA NHS R&D HTA ProgrammeT he research findings from the NHS R&D Health Technology Assessment (HTA) Programme directly influence key decision-making bodies such as the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) and the National Screening Committee (NSC) who rely on HTA outputs to help raise standards of care. HTA findings also help to improve the quality of the service in the NHS indirectly in that they form a key component of the 'National Knowledge Service' that is being developed to improve the evidence of clinical practice throughout the NHS.The HTA Programme was set up in 1993. Its role is to ensure that high-quality research information on the costs, effectiveness and broader impact of health technologies is produced in the most efficient way for those who use, manage and provide care in the NHS. 'Health technologies' are broadly defined to include all interventions used to promote health, prevent and treat disease, and improve rehabilitation and long-term care, rather than settings of care.The HTA Programme commissions research only on topics where it has identified key gaps in the evidence needed by the NHS. Suggestions for topics are actively sought from people working in the NHS,...

Getting to the Heart of Clinical Supervision: A Theoretical Review of the Role of Emotions in Professional Development

“…In fact, research indicates that an early therapeutic alliance produces more positive treatment outcomes for clients in many areas of mental health, such as depression (Zuroff and Blatt, 2006) and anxiety (Durham et al, 2005). However, therapeutic relationships require effort and, even once formed, can be problematic.…”

Clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of cognitive behavioural therapy as an adjunct to pharmacotherapy for treatment-resistant depression in primary care: the CoBalT randomised controlled trial

“…Those that exist relate to CBT for relapse prevention 23 or CBT delivered in 'real time' over the internet using an instant messaging service. 24 Other reports on cost-effectiveness of CBT, for example, Durham et al, 25 are confined to different patient populations (anxiety/psychosis) and varied CBT interventions (including low-intensity interventions comprising, on average, four sessions with a contact time of just 2.6 hours) and cannot be generalised more widely.…”

Long-term stability of cognitive behavioral therapy effects for panic disorder with agoraphobia: A two-year follow-up study

“…A recent meta-analysis found that the controlled effect size (i.e., in comparison to a wait list) at follow up assessments is meaningfully lower than average controlled effect sizes at post-treatment (Sánchez-Meca, RosaAlcázar, Marín-Martínez, & Gómez-Conesa, 2010). Similarly, one of the longest follow-up studies followed 189 patients with panic disorder for up to 14 years following several different randomized trials and concluded that the short term effects are unrelated to long term outcomes (Durham et al, 2005). Similar conclusions were reached in a 15 year follow-up assessment following pharmacological treatment of panic disorder (Andersch & Hetta, 2003).…”
