Aims and methodTo assess how well psychiatric teams follow up abnormal results from physical health monitoring of patients in a secondary care clozapine clinic compared with follow-up in a specialist secondary care physical health clinic, using an audit/re-audit method of comparison. Prevalence data for cardiovascular risk factors within the clinic population were also obtained.ResultsSubstantial and statistically significant (P < 0.01) improvements in follow-up of abnormal results were made following the introduction of a specialist clinic compared with treatment as usual. Prevalence of all cardiovascular risk factors among the patients on clozapine was very high compared with the general population.Clinical implicationsPatients on clozapine have significant and multiple cardiovascular risk factors, which may be best managed within a specialist secondary care physical health clinic that can follow up abnormal results and coordinate care across primary and secondary care.
