    La eficacia de la terapia cognitivo-conductual (TCC) en el tratamiento del trastorno de pánico (TP) con o sin agorafobia está bien documentada; sin embargo, se conoce menos su efectividad en formato grupal. El propósito de este estudio es investigar la efectividad de una combinación de las principales técnicas utilizadas en una versión específi ca de TCC en formato grupal para este trastorno: el Modelo de Control del Pánico. El tratamiento consistió en 12 sesiones grupales semanales siguiendo la guía propuesta por Martín (2007) para aplicar en grupo el programa de Barlow (1988). Todos los pacientes tuvieron ganancias signifi cativas en todas las dimensiones evaluadas con alto grado de remisión de sintomatología fi siológica de las crisis de pánico y mejora signifi cativa en los síntomas asociados. Los resultados sugieren la recomendación de este modelo de tratamiento para el abordaje de los trastornos de pánico en una consulta pública de salud mental.

    The effi cacy of cognitive-behavior therapy (CBT) in the treatment of panic disorder (TP) with or without agoraphobia is well documented, but less is known about group CBT effectiveness.

    The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of a combination of the main techniques used in a specifi c version of CBT for the treatment of this disorder: the Control Panic Program. The treatment consisted of 12 weekly group sessions, following the guidelines proposed by Martin (2007) to implement the Barlow program in a group format (Barlow 1988). All patients showed signifi cant gains in all dimensions assessed, with a high degree of remission in panic attacks� physiological symptoms and signifi cant improvement in associated symptoms. Results warrant recommending this model for the treatment of panic disorder in public mental health consultancies.
