Citation CADTH. Day programming for post-traumatic stress disorder: a review of the clinical effectiveness, cost-effectiveness and guidelines. Ottawa: Canadian Agency for Drugs and Technologies in Health (CADTH). 2012 Authors' conclusions A small number of studies of limited quality suggest that day programs may be effective in reducing PTSD symptoms and other psychiatric comorbidities, however the extent to which they are more or less effective than inpatient or residential and outpatient PTSD treatment programs is unclear. Cost-effectiveness evaluations of day programs and guidelines for their use were not identified. Randomized trials of day programs and their comparators are needed to address the question of their relative effectiveness in PTSD.
