We need more real-world trials like this one

We desperately need more trials like the study by Cathy Creswell and colleagues:1 a real-world effectiveness study, which showed the clear value of a digitally augmented intervention over the usual face-to-face treatment. Children who were referred to Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) for treatment of anxiety did just as well when treated with therapist-supported, parent-led, online cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) as those receiving the usual treatment offered by that setting, but they did so with just under 60% of the usual clinician time.
