Results of the Repetitive Measures for Obsessions and Compulsions

	Admission	Discharge	F/U 1	F/U 2	F/U 3	F/U 4	F	p
O Y-B scale (obsession score)	15.28	11.64	10.14	10.56	10.36	10.07	42.31	0.000
C Y-B scale (compulsion score)	10.68	6.71	5.96	7.07	6.57	6.25	26.24	0.000
Y-BOCS	25.96	18.35	16.1	17.63	16.93	16.32

The Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (Y-BOCS) total score mean at admission was in the severe range (26), and dropped on discharge to 18 (30.7% reduction). This response was maintained during all the follow-ups. The mean score dropped to a moderate range (16.3; 36.8% reduction) at the end of the study. F, final; F/U, follow-up.
