N2 - Psychological group interventions for the acute inpatient care setting are scarce. Whereas Metacognitive Training for patients with Psychosis (MCT) provides a widely accessible, easy-to-implement intervention for patients with mild to moderate symptoms, it is less adequate for the acute care setting with respect to length and density of information. We present the adaptation process and the resulting adaptation of MCT, MCT-Acute, for the acute inpatient care setting. We report the case of a first patient, NK, who participated in MCT-Acute during her mandated stay on the locked acute ward due to an exacerbation of schizophrenia. NK participated in MCT-Acute 12 times, evaluated the training overall as positive and reported that she used exercises she had learned during training to improve her mood. She also described changing her behaviour in everyday life to think more slowly and make less hasty decisions, which is a central topic discussed in MCT and MCT-Acute. Conducting an adapted version of MCT in the acute care setting is feasible, and the present case report suggests that MCT-Acute may be a useful complement to a multidisciplinary treatment plan to stabilize patients with severe mental illness in acute inpatient care.
