Dialog

Article summary

DIALOG+ is a technology-supported intervention used to structure communication between a patient and a mental health care provider. The intervention consists of the patient providing ratings of their subjective quality of life (SQOL) on 11 areas of the DIALOG scale (made up of eight life domains and three treatment aspects). The eight life domains consist of: mental health, physical health, job situation, accommodation, leisure activities, relationships with partner/family, friendships and personal safety. The three treatment aspects deal with medication, practical help and meetings with mental health professionals. The 11 items together make up the DIALOG scale. On all areas, the patient is asked to rate how satisfied they are on a 7-point scale that ranges from (1) "totally dissatisfied", to (7) "totally satisfied". Each DIALOG+ session starts with the patient rating their satisfaction on the DIALOG scale. The intervention is hosted on a device that supports the technology, meaning that the patient is more actively involved in the meeting. In the case of face-to-face delivery, a tablet computer can be used to allow for the device to be passed easily between the patient and the provider to aid discussion. The scores are summarised and can easily be compared on the screen, and, if this is a subsequent visit, be compared to scores provided at earlier visits.…
