title: Organisational obsessive-compulsive disorder: has clinical governance become pathological?
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The aim of the study was to compare the use of various monitoring tools in the public psychiatry sector to the development of obsessive-compulsive rituals in individuals.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The step from useful data collection to meaningless and incapacitating ritual may be prevented by the use of ongoing dialogue, assumption testing, realistic appraisal of clinician responsibility and tolerance of uncertainty.
