No results posted yet for this study

Summary

There is a lack of incentive approach for patients who suffer from schizophrenia yet lack the insight to accept treatment. Most existing approaches involve coercion and involuntary hospitalizations. This study will explore whether patients with poor insight and lacking in competence for treatment decisions will improve their acceptance and adherence of depot injection antipsychotic medication if a financial incentive is offered. Ethical considerations are also explored for this innovative pilot study
