We term the approach \u2018Tracking Responses to Items in Measures\u2019 (TRIM) and promote the key aims to be (1) providing both client and practitioner with feedback on areas of positive change that may be masked by numerical feedback, (2) reinforcing client strengths and self\u2010efficacy, (3) exploring potential extra\u2010therapeutic factors that may contribute to the lack of change or deterioration on individual questions and (4) establishing a collaborative dialogue relating clients' problems to their goals and the consequent aims of treatment. This paper profiles the clinical origins and technical development of TRIM as a clear, user\u2010friendly display of item change across sessions using colour codes and illustrates the clinical utility through two clinical vignettes. Although the profile of the TRIM method herein uses the Clinical Outcomes in Routine Evaluation Outcome Measure,<jats:ext-link xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" xlink:href=\"#cpp1929-note-0001\"\/> we believe the method could easily be used with other measures. These could include Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7 and Patient Health Questionnaire 9 used in English National Health Service primary care Improving Access to Psychological Therapies services, or disorder specific measures for particular problems commonly used in National Health Service specialist services. We suggest TRIM is a practical complement to existing feedback systems, especially in work with clients who may be less likely to show empirically meaningful change on mean item or clinical score levels.
