Lay summary
We aim to build a model predicting psychosis in CAMHS-exposed youth (≤25) in NW London using WSIC data. It will assess risk signals, service use, and outcomes, and compare performance across referral pathways, supporting earlier, equitable intervention.
Public benefit statement
The project will provide clinicians with a structured, data-driven prompt that helps identifying young people (≤25) at increased risk of developing psychosis using information already recorded in GP and CAMHS systems. This enables earlier clinical review and support, which is associated with shorter delays to appropriate care and better functional outcomes. By signaling likely need for Early Intervention in Psychosis (EIP) or enhanced CAMHS follow-up, the tool would aim to reduce time to the right service, limit deterioration, and lower the chance of crisis presentations.
