ACP Internist May 2016

  • Depression's impact on health is often profound and far-reaching, potentially equaling that of coronary artery disease. To provide clinicians with guidance on treatment of depression, ACP has released a new clinical practice guideline that underscores the severe burden of depression and outlines viable treatment options for patients.

  • Hospitalists take bigger role in postdischarge decisions.
