Loss of contact<br />
With respect to the risk of loss of contact <strong>in</strong> the population cared <strong>for</strong> <strong>in</strong><br />
CMHC compared with ST, it seems to <strong>in</strong>dicate that there is <strong>in</strong>sufficient evidence<br />
to determ<strong>in</strong>e this association (n = 100; RR = 1.24; 95% CI: between<br />
0.49 and 3.16 and n = 155; RR = 1.04; 95% CI: Between 0.60 and 1.79) 8 .<br />
Similar results to those obta<strong>in</strong>ed <strong>in</strong> the study by Malone et al. 204 (n = 253; RR<br />
= 1.10; 95% CI: between 0.7 and 1.8).<br />

<strong>Mental</strong> state<br />
In the data <strong>in</strong>dicated <strong>in</strong> the NICE Schizophrenia <strong>CPG</strong>, which are those provided<br />
by the study by Merson et al. 202 respect to the evolution of the mental<br />
state <strong>in</strong> the population cared <strong>for</strong> <strong>in</strong> CMHC compared with ST, no differences<br />
are observed between the two <strong>in</strong>terventions (n = 100; WMD = - .80; 95% CI<br />
between -5.74 and 4.14).<br />

Social function<strong>in</strong>g<br />
There is no evidence to determ<strong>in</strong>e if the CMHC is associated with an improvement<br />
of social function<strong>in</strong>g accord<strong>in</strong>g to the Social Function<strong>in</strong>g<br />
Questionnaire scale (n = 100; WMD = 0.70; 95% CI: between -1.18 and<br />
2.58) 8 .<br />

Service satisfaction<br />
In the CMHC group there was a smaller number of people who were dissatisfied<br />
compared with the participants who received ST (n = 87; RR=0.37;<br />
95% CI: between 0.2 and 0.8) 204 .<br />

5.3.3. Assertive Community Treatment (ACT)<br />
ACT vs. Standard treatment (ST)<br />
Use of services<br />
Patients who receive ACT have more probabilities of rema<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> contact<br />
with services than those that receive community ST (number of losses <strong>in</strong><br />
follow-up: n = 1757; RR = 0.62; 95% CI: between 0.52 and 0.74) 8 and the<br />
probabilities of admission also decreases compared with ST (n = 1047; RR<br />
= 0.71; 95% CI: between 0.52 and 0.97; NNT = 7; 95% CI: between 4 and<br />
100) 8 .<br />
The ACT decreases the probabilities of hospital admission compared<br />
with rehabilitation based <strong>in</strong> the hospital (n = 185; RR = 0.47; 95% CI: between<br />
0.33 and 0.66; NNT = 3; 95% CI: between 3 and 5) 8 .<br />
