NCT ID NCT05863572
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a new way to improve mental health services for people with psychosis in Uganda. Instead of just doctors making decisions, people who have experienced psychosis were trained to help at home, in the community, and at clinics. The goal was to see if this approach is practical and acceptable, not yet to prove it works.
