Abstract:
This online resource guides the psycho-oncologist through the most salient aspects of effective psychiatric care of patients with advanced illnesses. It reviews basic concepts and definitions of palliative care and the experience of dying, the assessment and management of major psychiatric complications of life-threatening illness, including psychopharmacologic and psychotherapeutic approaches, and covers issues such as bereavement, spirituality, cultural sensitivity, communication and psychiatric contributions to common physical symptom control. A global perspective on death and palliative care is taken throughout, and an appendix provides a comprehensive list of international palliative care resources and training programs.

Abstract:
The families of patients in the palliative care setting have a range of educational and care needs that form part of the basic responsibility of the hospice service. Routine family meetings are an important way to address these needs. Additionally, up to one third of families have some level of dysfunction in their relationships, which prove predictive of morbid bereavement outcomes—prolonged grief and major depressive disorders. These families who carry risk of poorer outcomes need additional care, optimally commenced during palliative care, and continued into bereavement to provide continuity of service. Assessment of family strengths and relational functioning provide insight into clinical targets to support a family. The needs of children, the elderly, disabled, or mentally ill family members need to be addressed alongside those of patients with complex illnesses. A preventive model of family-centred care may involve six to ten family therapy sessions across nine to 18 months.

Abstract:
Patients with schizophrenia experience three categories of symptoms: positive (delusions and hallucinations); negative (blunting of affective expression, loss of volition, and apathy); and disorganized (as reflected by a formal thought disorder). A diagnosis of schizophrenia requires that continuous signs of illness, which may include prodromal and residual symptoms, be present for at least 6 months. Research indicates that schizophrenia is likely a neurodevelopmental illness with clear heritable risk factors. Patients with schizophrenia tend to have an illness onset by young adulthood and a generally debilitating and long-term course, but the degree of disability and functional impairment is widely variable. Other illnesses characterized by prominent psychotic symptoms include schizoaffective disorder and delusional disorder. Treatment for psychotic illnesses includes antipsychotic medication and recovery-oriented psychosocial interventions aimed at “psychiatric rehabilitation” wherein patients can learn or relearn skills necessary to live independently and work competitively.

Abstract:
This chapter illustrates how the biopsychosocial model might work within the context of medical practice. It discusses its relevance to research using a case study as an example of the role of clinical care in developing research strategies for applying psychosocial principles. It argues that individual illnesses are a legitimate area of research into the biopsychosocial model.

Abstract:
Years after effective medications have been available for HIV infection, the stigma of this illness persists and presents a barrier to prevention, testing, and treatment. The treatment of HIV among people with mental illnesses is additionally challenging due to neuropsychiatric manifestations of HIV and drug interactions that may occur between antiretroviral and psychotropic medications. This chapter uses a case example to illustrate the range of psychosocial and clinical issues experienced by people living with HIV/AIDS and those at high risk of HIV infection. The chapter also provides an overview of HIV post-exposure prophylaxis and pre-exposure prophylaxis. In addition, the chapter suggests approaches for improving individual clinical care and provides recommendations for organizational and public health strategies to improve treatment and outcomes in this population.

Abstract:
Psychotic disorders such as schizophrenia fascinate and challenge mental health providers, who seek to understand these conditions and assist individuals and families who suffer from them. Schizophrenia causes significant disability and increased mortality, and practitioners struggle to identify and manage the condition appropriately. It can be particularly difficult for trainees and students to grasp the basics in a way that can effectively inform clinical care. Hopefully, this book will help. This volume of the Pittsburgh Pocket Psychiatry series provides a comprehensive overview of schizophrenia and related psychotic disorders, which will assist psychiatry residents, medical students, and other professional trainees in diagnosing and treating individuals with these conditions. The book draws on the latest scientific research to discuss the neurobiology and pathophysiology of these illnesses; reviews the key clinical and diagnostic features of psychotic illnesses consistent with the revised criteria of DSM-5; discusses the course of these illnesses and their associated psychosocial issues; and provides strategies for treating individuals afflicted with these illnesses. It will help practitioners develop a better understanding of how to manage the challenges of evaluating, diagnosing, and treating individuals with psychotic illnesses. The handy, pocket-size format should make the book convenient and user-friendly, while the text itself is concise and readable, geared towards the young professional. Case examples, sample questions, and resource lists supplement core material and make this volume practical, particularly as a self-study guide. Contributing authors represent psychiatry, social work, and pharmacy; all have experience teaching and mentoring trainees and other health professionals.

Abstract:
Epidemiology can help us understand who is at risk for developing a disorder, what may happen to them, and perhaps even why people get the disorder to begin with. In this chapter, we will review the incidence and prevalence of schizophrenia and related psychotic disorders, as well as factors affecting such rates. Risk factors for psychosis include socio-demographics (e.g., gender, age, migrant status, class), predisposing factors (e.g., season of birth, perinatal trauma), and precipitating factors (e.g., substance use, psychosocial stress). We will highlight controversial issues such as traumatic life events, prenatal infection, and cannabis use, considering how epidemiological factors can shed light on the pathogenesis of schizophrenia and related illnesses.

Abstract:
Depression remains common in older people. It is strongly associated with physical illnesses and with cognitive impairment and has a complex set of relationships with dementia. Its aetiology involves a complex interplay of physical and psychosocial risk and protective factors. Its neurobiology includes a strong relationship with vascular diseases, neuroendocrine abnormalities, an increase in MRI white matter hyperintense lesions, a reduction in volume of the hippocampus and frontal and subcortical structures and neuronal abnormalities in such structures. Management involves physical (mainly drugs but also ECT) and psychological treatments. In the acute phase remission is the aim, and following this continuation and maintenance stages should continue with the same treatments indefinitely. Prognosis overall is not as good as in younger adults, but this is largely due to the presence of cognitive deficits and physical ill health.

Abstract:
Patients with life-limiting illness and their families require the skills of many professionals, but also the support of their community. Psychosocial issues for people with life-limiting and terminal illness are complex and require excellent team work and the ability to look beyond the obvious. Whilst most professionals are comfortable in assessing and supporting even the most intimate of physical problems, assessing and supporting the emotional, social, and spiritual sequelae of terminal illness is challenging. More attention has been given to the psychosocial needs of adults with cancer than for any other group. This new edition of a successful text examines current practice and provision of psychosocial care across the lifespan and includes neonatal palliative care, care of the frail elderly, those with dementia and the marginalized. It is a highly practical text, comprehensively reviewing the current literature and evidence in order to demonstrate good, and better, research-based practice in psychosocial care.

Abstract:
Research in mental health issues in prisoner populations essentially stopped in the mid 1970’s. It is now re-emerging as a critical component of improving mental health care and helping toward recovery for the incarcerated mentally ill. Mental illness, ranging from acute anxiety to schizophrenia, is endemic within prisons and jails. Unlike their free world counterparts, however, incarcerated people have a constitutional right to mental health treatment. Yet, despite the need for and right to mental health treatment, remarkably little reliable and valid evidence is available on the nature and level of mental illness among incarcerated people, the effects of incarceration on symptomatology, the availability and quality of medication, cognitive, and psychosocial treatment for disorders, and how context impacts the effectiveness of the treatment that is available. Evidence is absent because corrections-based research is constrained by regulation, financing, and inexperience. In this chapter, the history of prisoner research and the evolution of federal regulations to protect prisoners as human subjects will be reviewed and then discussed in terms of how regulation has impacted correctional mental health research, after first defining what is meant by research and why research is needed to inform policy and practice decisions. This will be followed by recommendations for building the correctional mental health research evidence base. The intent here is to help researchers, in collaboration with stakeholders, develop, design, and implement research studies, and disseminate evidence to advance science and the quality of care available to incarcerated people with mental illnesses within the current regulatory environment.
