Resource Type

Book

Description

"This guideline summarizes data to inform psychiatrists of the care of patients with panic disorder. It begins at the point where the psychiatrist has diagnosed an adult patient as suffering from this disorder according to the criteria in DSM-IV and has evaluated the patient for the existence of coexisting mental disorders. It also assumes that the psychiatrist or other physician has evaluated the patient for general medical conditions or other factors that may be causing or exacerbating the panic or that may affect the treatment. The guideline also briefly addresses issues specific to the treatment of panic disorders in children and adolescents." --(www.appi.org)
