Depression diagnoses and antidepressant use in primary care practices: a study from the Practice Partner Research Network (PPRNet).
Abstract
We examined the pharmacologic management and follow-up of adults with newly diagnosed depression, and the use of antidepressants among patients not diagnosed with depression in primary care practice. A total of 389 physicians in 39 practices in the Practice Partner Research Network (PPRNet), a national network of primary care physicians provided data for the study.
