INTRODUCTION▪ Generalised anxiety disorder (GAD) is a chronic and disabling condition (Revicki et al., 2012).

▪ High rates of comorbidity occur, particularly with depression –for which comorbidity rates as high as 60% have been reported (Wolitzky-Taylor, Castriotta, Lenze, Stanley, & Craske, 2010).

▪ Prevalence rates of generalised anxiety disorder (GAD) in older adults are estimated to be between 3.4% and 6.3% (Allgulander, 2006; Golden et al., 2011; Wittchen et al., 2011).

▪ Older adults prefer psychological therapy over medication for the treatment of anxiety conditions (Mohlman, 2012).

Page 7: Northern Dementia Clinical Network Thursday 16 August 2018 · Overcoming Worry Group was an acceptable and feasible treatment option. The opt-in rate (87%) was comparable to rates

THE GAD TREATMENT EVIDENCE BASE

▪ Two recent meta-analyses found individual CBT for

anxiety in older adults only marginally more effective than ve

control conditions

(Gould, Coulson, & Howard, 2012; Hall et al., 2016).

▪ Trials of group CBT for older adults with GAD have reported

conservative findings

(Stanley et al., 2003; Stanley, Beck & Glassco, 1996; Wetherell,

Gatz, & Craske, 2003).

▪ NICE currently recommends pharmacotherapy, cognitive

behavioural therapy (CBT), or applied relaxation to treat GAD in

adults (NICE, 2011). No specific recommendations are made

for older adult patients, due to lack of credible evidence.

STUDY RATIONALE

Dugas and Roubichaud (2007) GAD treatment protocol based

on a cognitive model of GAD containing four main features:

▪ Intolerance of uncertainty.

▪ Positive beliefs about worry.

▪ Poor problem orientation.

▪ Cognitive avoidance.

Encouraging results with working age adults in group and individual settings, and with older adults at an individual level in a small multiple baseline study (Dugas et al., 2010; Dugas et al., 2003; Ladouceur, Leger, Dugas, & Freeston, 2004).

The protocol had not yet been tested with older adultsin a group setting.

STUDY AIMS

Primary Aims:

▪ To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of the Dugas

and Roubichaud (2007) treatment protocol for older

adults with GAD attending group CBT.

Secondary Aims:

▪ To assess feasibility.

▪ To assess acceptability.

▪ To assess the durability of treatment effects.

Research in practice

Sheffield Older Adult Community Mental Health Team (OACMHT), Sheffield IAPT, and University of Sheffield worked collaboratively in designing and evaluating a group treatment for GAD for older adults

To contribute to the evidence base concerning group treatment of older adult GAD

The current study created the opportunity to increase access and offer more treatment choice for older adults presenting with symptoms of GAD within Sheffield OACMHT and Sheffield IAPT

METHODS 1: RESEARCH DESIGN

A-B with follow-up (baseline, intervention, and follow-up) –

used to show the impact of the intervention, controlling for

natural improvement over time.

Case Series - a number of participants receiving the same

intervention so outcomes can be compared between individuals.

Mixed methods – quantitative (e.g. standardised outcome measures) and qualitative (e.g. interviews and focus groups). Mixed methods enabled findings to be ‘triangulated’ – increases the reliability and validity of study findings if more than one method showing the same outcome.

William, & Löwe, 2006).

▪ Willing, and able, to attend the 12-week group CBT

intervention.

▪ Able to read, write, and understand English.

Flow of Participants

Referrals for 37 potentially eligible participants were received (28

from IAPT and 9 from CMHTs), 87% opt-in rate for treatment

and 65% opt-in rate for research.

▪ 13 research participants - 2 dropouts at the end of treatment and

1 dropout at follow-up.

RESULTS 1: RECOVERY RATES

Reliable and clinically significant improvement is an accepted measure of recovery:

Recovery rates at the end of treatment: GAD = 46%, depression = 50%.

Recovery rates at follow-up: GAD = 70%, depression = 33%.

No participants made reliable and clinically significant deterioration in GAD during the study, or at follow-up.

RESULTS 2: PARTICIPANT FEEDBACK

▪ Five themes: (1) Enjoyable, (2) better in a group than expected, (3) supportive facilitators, (4) not as expected, and (5) why invent worries!

e.g. Theme 1: Enjoyable. Many of the participants (10/11) described treatment as an enjoyable and social experience: “I’ve enjoyed it, I think some of the time it was just meeting people as well” (Participant 8).

e.g. Theme 2: Better in a group than expected. Almost half of the participants (5/11) described coping better with group-based treatment than expected: “I thought I might not be able to do that and yet I did do that, and went to all 12 of them” (Participant 5).

Page 19: Northern Dementia Clinical Network Thursday 16 August 2018 · Overcoming Worry Group was an acceptable and feasible treatment option. The opt-in rate (87%) was comparable to rates

RESULTS 3: FACILITATOR FEEDBACK

Eight themes: (1) OK together, (2) drop the diary, (3) too much paperwork, (4) familiar co-facilitator helps, (5) structure helps, (6) invisible research, (7) doing helps, (8) positive feedback.

e.g. Theme 7: Doing helped. Facilitators described the behavioural experiments as a helpful element of treatment: “I think the behavioural experiments are really key. Really good at keeping that consistency of doing things differently” (Psychologist 1, OWG2).

e.g. Theme 8: Positive feedback. Facilitators shared positive feedback from participants, and their networks: “He’d [participant’s husband] got his wife back and he was very positive about the group and that it should continue. Generally people were very positive” (Psychologist 2, OWG2). 19

RESULTS 4: MIXED METHODANALYSES

95% of changes observed (95%) were described as either ‘somewhat’ or ‘extremely’ unlikely without treatment.

Observed changes were most frequently attributed to:

▪ Learning about hypothetical worries (19% of changes).

▪ Trying new things (19%).

▪ General course content (19%).

CONCLUSIONS: ACCEPTABILITYAND FEASBILITY

Mixed method findings converged to suggested that the Overcoming Worry Group was an acceptable and feasible treatment option.

▪ The opt-in rate (87%) was comparable to rates reported in trials of individual CBT for older adults with GAD (91%: Stanley et al., 2009; 93%: Stanley et al., 2014).

▪ The dropout rate (15%) was lower than previous studies of group CBT for older adults with GAD (26-39%: Stanley et al., 1996; Stanley et al., 2003; Wetherell et al., 2003).

▪ Facilitator feedback was confirmatory and also suggested that feasibility had been enhanced in two ways: delivery with a familiar co-facilitator and the structure of the protocol.

Page 23: Northern Dementia Clinical Network Thursday 16 August 2018 · Overcoming Worry Group was an acceptable and feasible treatment option. The opt-in rate (87%) was comparable to rates

CONCLUSIONS: EFFICACY AND DURABILITY

▪ Initially efficacy:

PSWQ effect size (d = 2.59) exceeded effect sizes reported in previous trials of group CBT for older adults (d = 0.53-90: Stanley et al., 1996; Stanley et al., 2003; Wetherell et al., 2003).

▪ Durability:

None of the participants showed significant deterioration in worry symptoms (PSWQ) over FU.

Page 24: Northern Dementia Clinical Network Thursday 16 August 2018 · Overcoming Worry Group was an acceptable and feasible treatment option. The opt-in rate (87%) was comparable to rates

CONCLUSIONS

▪ Group delivery of the Dugas and Roubichaud (2007) worry protocol is an acceptable, feasible treatment option, which shows initial efficacy, for older adults with GAD.

▪ The protocol shows real promise as a treatment for GAD in older age.

▪ Further controlled studies against active treatments are warranted.

But in reality…

Number of BAME 1st / 2nd generation in older age profile

increasing

Currently 15-25,000 BAME people (UK) with dementia

expected to increase 7/8 fold by 2050

Minister says we should learn from ethnic minorities –

because ‘they look after their own’ – do they??

Services are culturally inappropriate – both pre and post-

diagnosis

BAME carer voice is missing on local, regional and

national levels

M A Rauf MBE November 2018

So what is going on?

Page 35: Northern Dementia Clinical Network Thursday 16 August 2018 · Overcoming Worry Group was an acceptable and feasible treatment option. The opt-in rate (87%) was comparable to rates

Migrants of the mid to late 20th century are ageing

Higher likelihood of dementia / prevention possibility

BAME communities more likely to be managing

complex health care / co-morbidities

BAME communities more likely to be experiencing

higher rates of socio-economic deprivation

Legislation (Equality Act 2000)

Social construction based on migratory influence

Why intercultural care?

M A Rauf MBE November 2018

‘Health & Social care move towards generalised rather

than specialised focus will bypass the growing need

Commissioning of services should not be a ‘one size fits all’ approach – pre/post-diagnostic level

Use a ‘invest to save’ approach to support families and carers – invest in BME / male carers

Do we know why there are high rates of DNA? Is ethnicity recorded and reviewed making approaches community-centred?

Equalities legislation – duty of care – urdu font in translation ??

Implications

Page 37: Northern Dementia Clinical Network Thursday 16 August 2018 · Overcoming Worry Group was an acceptable and feasible treatment option. The opt-in rate (87%) was comparable to rates

BAME people with dementia are ‘missing’ at service point

They tend to present late

Diagnosis is often inaccurate

Family carers are under extreme burden – are we aware?

Socio-cultural and religious factors influence access to services

BME carers are struggling as they are trying to manage an

already complex situation

Fear a perceived prejudice / discrimination

Feedback from the pilot‘Clear and simple with useful tips on things to consider’

– GP

‘It has given me an idea of how to structure an initial

assessment for a younger person presenting

concerned about cognitive impairment’ – GP

‘I wonder if it might be more useful as a prompt than a

tool’ – GP

‘Great idea and much needed’ – Family member

‘We have a concern that a paper based tool will not

be seen as valuable by GPs’ – Family member and

What is DiADeM?

DiADeM is a tool for diagnosing of advanced dementia in people who live in care homes.

o 70-80% of care home residents will have dementiao Supports primary care clinicians to make a diagnosiso Reduces the need to attend formal clinicso Increases the likelihood of receiving good post

diagnosis care

www.england.nhs.uk

The Value of using DiADeMin a Care Home setting

o Increases the number of people receiving a formal diagnosis

o Allows proactive ACP and EOL careo Improves the flow of information during transitions

of careo Improves the awareness and prevention of deliriumo Allows Clinicians and professional Carers to support

families to understand behaviours and improve relationships

o Alerts care homes to the possibility of a deprivation of liberty

In response to various requests to widen the use of the tool beyond the care home setting

• Teleconference with originators of the tool 7th

November 2018

• Agreed to raise here today for wider discussion

• Arranged National webinar 19th December 2018 12:00 to 1:30pm

Questions already raised

‘How do we ensure

people have access to

good PDS and the

diagnosis is not made in

isolation?’

What happens if the

patient does not speak

English-would this tool

still be the right one to

use?’‘How would we ensure that

practitioners get a good

corroborating history and

don’t misdiagnose delirium’

Would they need 2 visits?’

‘What are the

responsibilities of the

person making the

diagnosis and how do

we make this clear?

‘What benefits would it

bring when we all have

services that offer

home visits to diagnose

frail elderly people?’

‘How do we ensure

prolonged delirium is

not missed?’

‘What would happen if

there were challenging

behaviours or the

GP/Family wanted to

start medication?’

‘Who is responsible for

sharing/informing

relatives/social care of

the diagnosis?’

• What are the pros and cons of extending the use of the tool?

• How can we ensure that Clinicians using the tool are aware of and put in

place any available post diagnostic support including any access to

dementia navigators, dementia advisers and or similar services available

in their area.

• How do we ensure the tool doesn’t become ‘overused’ chosen as an

‘easy option’ rather than appropriate referral to memory clinic?

• Further discussion opportunity this afternoon Table Discussions

PRIDEM PROJECT

4 year research programme funded by the Alzheimer’s Society

Aiming to develop a model for post-diagnostic support (PDS) which is: Primary care-led

Person-centred

Recognition that long-term provision of PDS by secondary care is not sustainable

First stage of project aims to establish the current evidence base –looking for existing examples of primary care-based PDS (including for other conditions)

Aiming to carry out 30-minute telephone interviews with 40 service managers and commissioners of dementia PDS, following up with a visit to a smaller number of areas

Older People’s Access to IAPT toolkit

Quality Improvement Lead, Y&H Clinical Networks

Page 73: Northern Dementia Clinical Network Thursday 16 August 2018 · Overcoming Worry Group was an acceptable and feasible treatment option. The opt-in rate (87%) was comparable to rates

Why is this important?

• Estimated prevalence of common mental health disorders for 65 plus is 18% - estimated only 6.4% access IAPT services

• 25% of over 65’s living in the community have symptoms of depression serious enough to warrant intervention – only a third discuss it with their GPs, and only half of those get treatment, primarily medication.

• The IAPT recovery rate is on average 13% higher

Page 74: Northern Dementia Clinical Network Thursday 16 August 2018 · Overcoming Worry Group was an acceptable and feasible treatment option. The opt-in rate (87%) was comparable to rates

Carers• High levels of anxiety & depression

• (AS Survey) Nine in 10 carers for people with dementia experience feelings of stress or anxiety several times a week – and a further 80% find it difficult to talk about the emotional impact of caring. In addition half of those surveyed said they have experienced depression.

• Carers often don’t recognise themselves as a ‘carer’

• Carers often don’t know where to turn for help

'The pressure of caring for a loved one can be very

isolating’

‘Caring can take up so much time and energy that there's little left over for yourself; this can make it hard to look after your own health and wellbeing, maintain friendships, and get a break from caring.’

The Toolkit• Aims to demonstrate the importance of this topic

• Estimates how equitable your services are for older people (using national IAPT reports compared with population data)

• Includes case studies and top tips to helpNote – there is limited research in understanding what works and what doesn’t work in increasing access for this group

• Key themes:

Language ‘worry’ / ‘carer’

Collaborative working – memory services & IAPT services

Champions for older people in teams

Making links to community & voluntary organisations

Are referrals to memory services

representative of BAME Groups?

representative of BAME groups

• Analysis of populations

• Data issues

• Next steps

Aims:

Page 80: Northern Dementia Clinical Network Thursday 16 August 2018 · Overcoming Worry Group was an acceptable and feasible treatment option. The opt-in rate (87%) was comparable to rates

www.england.nhs.uk

• NHS organisations are mandated to collect ethnicity data based on the categories within the

ONS 10 yearly Censes. The NHS currently utilises the ethnic category codes from the 2001

Census

• This includes:

• White (British, Irish, Other White background)

• Mixed (White and Black Caribbean, White and Black African, White and Asian, Any other

mixed background)

• Asian or Asian British (Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi, Any other Asian background)

• Black or Black British (Caribbean, African, Any other Black background)

• Other Ethnic Groups (Chinese, Any other).

• Population data for Yorkshire and Humber was extracted form the 2011 census and broken

down into CCG area.

• In 2011 the ONS introduced two new sub-categories into the ethnicity question for the 2011

Census. These were manually reorganised into the 2001 categories to allow for comparison.

How data was collected:

Page 81: Northern Dementia Clinical Network Thursday 16 August 2018 · Overcoming Worry Group was an acceptable and feasible treatment option. The opt-in rate (87%) was comparable to rates

www.england.nhs.uk

• In June 2018 memory services managers were

contacted asking to provide ethnic distribution data for

referrals from 1 April 2017 to 31 March 2018

• Nine areas submitted returns but only able to use

eight

• Percentage of BAME groups referred to memory

services were compared against the percentage of

BAME groups in population (over 65)

Small numbers:

Page 85: Northern Dementia Clinical Network Thursday 16 August 2018 · Overcoming Worry Group was an acceptable and feasible treatment option. The opt-in rate (87%) was comparable to rates

www.england.nhs.uk

• Manual error reorganising data

• Although NHS organisations are mandated to collect ethnicity using 2001 census codes, this isn’t happening everywhere and varying templates are being used for data collection

• Comparison of 2011 census data to 17/18 referral data

• Comparison of CCG census data to Memory service data

• Returns form different time frames

• Missing data (some areas as high as 24%)

• Small numbers from some ethnicity groups

• Not all of Y&H submitted returns. Can’t generalise

• We don’t know what the experience is beyond the point of referral.

Data issues:

Page 86: Northern Dementia Clinical Network Thursday 16 August 2018 · Overcoming Worry Group was an acceptable and feasible treatment option. The opt-in rate (87%) was comparable to rates

www.england.nhs.uk

• It’s a difficult task that has highlighted more questions than

answers

• Not much

• Is it encouraging?

• Has there been an improvement in awareness of dementia

and help seeking behaviour among BAME population?

• Why isn’t data collected?

• We don’t know at what point data isn’t collected

• What is the experience beyond the point of referral?

• Reality of what is happening on the ground???

What does this tell us?

Page 87: Northern Dementia Clinical Network Thursday 16 August 2018 · Overcoming Worry Group was an acceptable and feasible treatment option. The opt-in rate (87%) was comparable to rates

www.england.nhs.uk

• Many questions about equity of access in specific

ethnic groups remain

• Further analysis is needed to make a conclusion

• Questions raised about timeliness of diagnoses

• Is there appropriate aftercare among the expanding

number of people with dementia and their carers in

the BAME communities?

What’s next?
