A practical randomised controlled double-blind trial of antipsychotic treatment of very late-onset schizophrenia-like psychosis: the ATLAS trial
Very late-onset schizophrenia-like psychosis is a major illness that commonly occurs in older people. Sufferers become convinced that their neighbours and family are trying to harm them. Clinicians will only want to expose their patients to the potential risks of antipsychotic treatment for the minimum period of time necessary, and the ATLAS trial has been designed to provide them with robust evidence upon which to base such treatment decisions.
