Description

In this Video Abstract, Kalee Lodewyk, Master of Science candidate, at the University of Alberta, talks about her CAMH journal paper 'Review: Adverse event monitoring and reporting in studies of pediatric psychosocial interventions: a systematic review'. Adverse event monitoring in studies of psychotherapy is crucial to clinical decision-making, particularly for weighing of benefits and harms of treatment approaches. In this systematic review, we identified how adverse events are defined, measured, and reported in studies of psychosocial interventions for children with mental disorders.
