Partnership for Mental Health Development in Sub-Saharan Africa: COllaborative Shared Care to IMprove Psychosis Outcome
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Collaborative shared care for Psychosis. Completed, enrolled 307 participants across 2 sites in 2 countries.
Detailed Summary
COSIMPO is a randomised controlled trial in which a collaborative shared care for psychosis implemented by complementary alternative providers (traditional and faith healers) and conventional primary health care providers (PHCP) is compared with care as usual in which no formal collaboration takes place between the two groups of health providers. COSIMPO is therefore a test of a complex task sharing approach for the care of patients with severe mental disorders.
