Abstract:
SummarySeveral lines of evidence suggest that bulimia - the syndrome of compulsive binge-eating - may be related to major affective disorder. First, high rates of major affective disorder have been found both among bulimic patients and their relatives. Second, neuroendocrine abnormalities, similar to those found in major affective disorder, have been reported in bulimia. Finally, several antidepressant medications have been shown to be effective in the treatment of bulimia.To investigate further the relationship between bulimia and major affective disorder, we evaluated 105 consecutive patient

Elements of family dynamics have been shown to be related to onset, course, as well as prognosis of anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa. The goal was to explore the experience of family relations in a group of patients with eating disorders using a projective family test. The Patient group (anorexia = 21, bulimia=16), as well as a healthy Control group, were given a projective family test, the Eating Disorder Inventory-2, as well as Karolinska Scales of Personality. The Patient group expressed more discord within the family picture than the Control group, such as cold and loveless relationshi

Abstract:
This study was aimed to identify eating disorder (ED) relapse, childbirth, postnatal depression,and the family support. Of the ED patients during treatment from 1994 to 2004,55 were pregnant and had ED recovery. Of them, 25 (21 Bulimia Nervosa (BN)and 4 Anorexia Nervosa (AN)) agreed to take part in this study. We interviewed them every 2 wk. both during the pregnancy and after childbirth. We also interviewed family members each month. The Eating Attitudes Test-26 (EAT-26) and Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) were helpful for diagnosing the EDs and postnatal depression. As the statistical analysis, We conducted t-test.67%relapsed ED while pregnant and 50%relapsed postnatal. In the non-relapse group, all the subjects had vaginal delivery and their infants were male. 50% of the subjects had postnatal depression. Non-Postnatal depression group had average body- weight infants. With regard to family support, there was no relationship between ED relapse and postnatal depression. We found that the rate of ED relapse and that of suffering from postnatal depression were remarkable in this group, suggesting the necessity for long-term follow-up for the EDs.

Abstract:
Bulimia nervosa (BN) is an eating disorder that consists of recurrent binging episodes and inappropriate compensatory behaviors. Binge eating is defined as eating a large amount of food within a discrete time period accompanied by a sense of lack of control over eating during the episode. Examples of inappropriate compensatory behaviors include self-induced vomiting, fasting, excessive exercise, and laxative or diuretic misuse. Additionally, patients with BN experience body image disturbance, where their self-evaluation is unduly affected by weight and body shape concerns. Bulimia nervosa typically begins in late adolescence or young adulthood. Patients either are typically of normal weight or are overweight. Physical examination and laboratory findings are typically normal; however, medical complications can include electrolyte disturbances, cardiac arrhythmia, and dental caries. Fluoxetine and other selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are commonly used to treat BN. A nutritional consultation is another important component of care. Finally, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and family therapy are the psychotherapies of choice.

Abstract:
Interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT) is a time-limited, diagnosis-focused therapy. IPT was defined in a manual. Research has established its efficacy as an acute and chronic treatment for patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) of all ages, as an acute treatment for bulimia nervosa, and as adjunct maintenance treatment for bipolar disorder. The research findings have led to its inclusion in treatment guidelines and increasing dissemination into clinical practice. Demonstration of efficacy in research trials for patients with major depressive episodes (MDEs) has led to its adaptation and testing for other mood and non-mood disorders. This has included modification for adolescent and geriatric depressed patients patients with bipolar and dysthymic disorders; depressed HIV-positive and depressed pregnant and postpartum patients; depressed primary care patients; and as a maintenance treatment to prevent relapse of the depression. Most of the modifications have been relatively minor and have retained the general principles and techniques of IPT for major depression. Non-mood targets have included anorexia, bulimia, substance abuse, borderline personality disorder, and several anxiety disorders. In general, outcome studies of IPT have suggested its promise for most psychiatric diagnoses in which it has been studied, with the exceptions of anorexia, dysthymic disorder, and substance use disorders. IPT has two complementary basic premises. First, depression is a medical illness, which is treatable and not the patient's fault. Second, depression does not occur in a vacuum, but rather is influenced by and itself affects the patient's psychosocial environment. Changes in relationships or other life events may precipitate depressive episodes; conversely, depressive episodes strain relationships and may lead to negative life events. The goal of treatment is to help the patient solve a crisis in his or her role functioning or social environment. Achieving this helps the patient to gain a sense of mastery over his or her functioning and relieves depressive symptoms. Begun as a research intervention, IPT has only lately started to be disseminated among clinicians and in residency training programmes. The publication of efficacy data, the promulgation of practice guidelines that embrace IPT among antidepressant treatments, and economic pressures on length of treatment have led to increasing interest in IPT. This chapter describes the concepts and techniques of IPT and its current status of adaptation, efficacy data, and training. The chapter provides a guide to developments and a reference list, but not a comprehensive review.

Abstract:
The assumption that family relationships play an important role in the care and well-being of the cancer patient may be overlooked simply because it is so universal. At the same time, the elevated role of the family as a primary unit of care in oncology settings is now beginning to receive proper attention in medical and psychiatric circles, and growing evidence supports the efficacy of family interventions for patients with cancer. Family-centered, collaborative models of mental health consultation for patients with cancer are consistent with, and offer an expansion to, current patient-centered models of care in oncology settings. Normative couple and family responses to stages of cancer and its treatment are described, and premises of the family-systems model for assessment and consultation are presented. A case example illustrates how the dimensions of family development, family history, family relationships, and the family’s relationship with providers contribute to a family-centered assessment and consultation.

Abstract:
Accessing treatment for a relative with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities requiring assessment or treatment from services can be extremely difficult for families and carers. Adverse past experiences can significantly affect the development of trust and relationships with present services and professionals. Listening and acknowledging families’ past and present concerns, alongside providing transparent information and reassurance about their relatives’ care, provides a foundation for starting positive relationships. Families are valuable in helping clinicians understand their patients fully and this helps the recovery process. Services have a duty to work collaboratively with patients’ families, in order to improve treatment outcomes including quality of life. Occasionally, there may be concerns in relation to the patient being the victim of familial financial, emotional, physical, and/or sexual abuse. In such instances, safeguarding processes must be followed.

Abstract:
Chapter 2 of Family-based Interpersonal Psychotherapy (FB-IPT) for Depressed Preadolescents presents the basic principles of interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT) and of interpersonal psychotherapy for depressed adolescents (IPT-A), empirically supported interventions for depression in adults and adolescents. IPT is a structured, time-limited treatment for depression that identifies one of four interpersonal problem areas (i.e., grief, role transitions, role disputes, and interpersonal deficits) that may be related to an individual’s onset of symptoms. IPT seeks to reduce depression by helping patients improve their relationships with others through effective communication and interpersonal problem-solving. IPT-A is a developmental adaptation that is designed to treat adolescents, ages 12 to 18 years, with depression. Both models include three phases of treatment (initial, middle, and termination), as well as a large psych educational component and a focus on helping depressed patients acquire better communication and problem-solving skills.

Abstract:
Contemporary patterns of care for patients with advanced kidney disease are far from person-centered. Large changes to health systems, payment structures, quality measurement, patient and provider education, and the culture in which care is delivered will be needed to support a more person-centered approach to care for members of this population. To uphold the essence of who our patients are, efforts are needed throughout the illness trajectory to foster the development of strong patient–provider relationships and extend the reach of these relationships across settings, to educate our patients about their treatment options and what to expect in the future, to offer opportunities for patients to involve their family members and close friends in their care, and ultimately to promote a culture in which providers are flexible, creative, and tireless in working with their colleagues and with their patients and their families to fulfill the mission of person-centered care of finding the “right treatment for the right person at the right time.”

Abstract:
The coexistence of psychiatric disorders in patients with medical illnesses may influence both the diagnosis and the course of the illness by their effects on pathophysiological, diagnostic, and therapeutic processes. There may also be effects on patients’ collaboration with treatment and on their relationships with health care staff. Several factors change the management of, medical illnesses and psychiatric disorders, and their inter-relation ♦ increased life-expectancy and increasing survival of people with-severe illness alter the risk of other medical and psychiatric disorders; ♦ social changes affecting family structure can affect care giving. Other social factors include changes in the role of women (work, delayed maternity); increased immigration with consequent cultural diversity including different concepts of medical and psychiatric disorders (see Chapter 1.3.2); ♦ increased use of medication in medical and in psychiatric treatment, and changes in the organization of health care and social assistance from hospital-based to community-based.
