What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Coordinated Specialty Care (CSC) delivered via telehealth or in-person
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that telehealth is as good as or better than in-person care for keeping young people with early psychosis engaged in treatment and out of the hospital.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study (74 people) with no blinding, so results may not apply broadly. Telehealth may not work for everyone, and some participants might prefer or need in-person visits.
