THE PHQ-2 on OASIS-C

Abstract: Since Medicare first implemented the home care Outcome and Assessment Information Set (OASIS) in 1999, we have learned a great deal about depression among the homebound elderly. First, we know that major depression is a highly prevalent illness in home care. With depression rates at almost 15%, home care—along with nursing homes—has among the highest rates of any healthcare setting (Bruce et al., 2002; Parmelee et al., 1992; Jones et al., 2003).

“…The suggestion to add items about psychosocial issues came from WC users. Nine items (Q27-Q35) are from the Patient Health Questionnaire three-item version (PHQ-3) [ 27 ] since a simplified version for older adults was available [ 28 ] and was validated with WC users [ 29 – 31 ]. However, these psychosocial items required a second layer of analysis by the clinical coordinator during the telephone contact to determine if the psychosocial distress was caused by the WC or not.…”

“…Thus, the total score of the PHQ-2 can range from 0 to 6. As previously recommended [ 28 ], we used the cutoff score of 3, by dichotomizing this variable into two categories: “low depressive symptoms” (0–2) and “high depressive symptoms” (3–6). PHQ-2 has demonstrated good reliability and validity to assess major depression among primary care patients [ 27 ].…”

“…Therefore, early detection of depression can positively impact patient outcomes, including the prevention of falls and hospitalization. 5 The American Physical Therapy Association has produced the evidence-based resource titled Adult Depression in Primary Care, Seventeenth Edition, a clinical practice guideline, published by the Institute for Clinical Systems Improvement. The American Physical Therapy Association recommends this guideline to assess, diagnose, and manage adults with new or existing diagnoses of major depression.…”
