Pioneering Interventional Psychiatric Services: Yale School of Medicine and Yale New Haven Health
The collaboration between Yale School of Medicine and Yale New Haven Psychiatric Hospital (YNHPH) has resulted in the translation of world-leading research to patient-centered care. Pioneers in the laboratories and in the clinics are transforming lives through the Interventional Psychiatric Services (IPS). IPS is the culmination of research and clinical practice to provide patients who have not been successful with more traditional treatments an opportunity for a better life. IPS includes comprehensive, specialty consultations, electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), Ketamine Infusion Therapy (KIT) and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS).

@YalePsych Retweeted @ChadiAbdallah3Glad to see this work published. Contrary to predictions from small studies, #ketamine failed in the largest #PTSD clinical trial.
