Welcome to the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Surveillance
System (CAPSS) web pages
CAPSS was officially launched in April 2009
and is based within the CRTU. CAPSS is here to assist
clinicians and researchers in ascertaining nationally cases of rare
childhood mental conditions.
CAPSS aims to:
*
facilitate epidemiological surveillance and research into uncommon
child and adolescent mental health conditions
* increase
awareness within the medical profession and public alike of the
less common psychiatric disorders that afflict children
* allow
psychiatrists to participate in surveillance of such conditions
This website will tell you more about the work
of CAPSS, the clinicians who make this work possible, how to use
the systems as an investigator.
We hope you find the information on the
website useful.
