Abstract
Beginning from an overview of the state of the art of international guidelines regarding personality disorders, we will aim to bring attention to the specific situation in Italy, where no official guidelines at a national level have yet been published. The repercussions of this absence will be discussed and some virtuous attempts to implement the diffusion of empirically supported approaches – including but not limited to evidence-based therapies will be highlighted. The guidelines for evidence-based clinical practice should constitute tools at the service of the clinician but also of patients and policymakers to limit the use of useless or harmful clinical practices, and instead promote decisions based on the best available scientific evidence, integrated with clinical experience and patient preferences and values. The therapeutic efficacy of treatments based on scientific evidence is widely documented in the literature, and much can be learned from the systematic study of non-specific factors in psychotherapy as well. Still, the implementation of approaches based on these scientific findings in the Italian healthcare context encounters several challenges. These range from the lack of adequately trained therapists to the very structure of mental healthcare in Italy, which makes it almost impossible to provide the proper care to those who are affected by personality disorders. The purpose of this discussion will be to investigate the tools officially available and those routinely adopted to support clinical choices when taking care of patients with personality disorders. Based on this analysis, the most critical aspects will be investigated, and best practices will be highlighted in order to elaborate a proposal regarding the drafting of Italian guidelines for the treatment of personality disorders, identifying in this tool an important laboratory for the integration and development of scientific paradigms, clinical models and health policies.
