@GeriatricsJC The Behavioral Activation intervention was more effective for anxiety symptoms as assessed by GAD7 than it was for depression (via PHQ9) #GeriJC

[Allyson Palmer, MD PhD @allysonkpalmer]

@GeriatricsJC The power calculations used to determine recruitment overestimated the incidence of depression possibly leading to underpowered study (authors state they expected 28% of usual care to develop depression; but found only 3.3% did) #GeriJC

@GeriatricsJC I like the adaptive application algorithm proposed by the authors - if gross abnormalities are present, can halt testing. Gives the test clinical versatility. #GeriJC

@GeriatricsJC As the authors point out, the BDST has promise as a useful tool for virtual visits to which we and our patients have become more accustomed during COVID-19 #GeriJC

@GeriatricsJC This study motivates me to engage with efforts to pilot and study hospital at home at my own institution #GeriJC

@Daniela56730371 @ARussell065 @GeriatricsJC Agreed - would be interesting to see a descriptive/survey based exploration of caregiver experiences within this model @GeriatricsJC

Americans shouldn't have to live in fear that they'll go bankrupt if they get sick. Health care must be a right, not a privilege.
