Community Treatment Orders (CTOs): a demographic cross-sectional analysis.

CONCLUSIONS: Men of middle age, with a diagnosis of schizophrenia, a history of aggression, current substance misuse and reported previous CTO efficacy are the primary individuals predicted to require ongoing CTOs. Improving CTO efficacy should focus on providing targeted intervention for this group and a closer analysis of the use of CTOs in other groups. PMID: 26400449 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
