Performance improvement CME: improving outcomes in depression.
Performance Improvement CME (PI CME) is an educational activity in which clinicians retrospectively assess their current clinical practice, choose areas for improvement and implement interventions based on treatment guidelines and health care standards, and then re-evaluate their clinical practice to assess the improvements made. This PI CME focuses on improving the detection and initial treatment of depression, enhancing patients' treatment response, and preventing relapse and recurrence.
