Abstract:

Palliative care has a foundational commitment to integrate attention to psychological, spiritual, and family issues with biomedical matters. This requires being able to measure them. A limited number of assessment tools have been subjected to validity studies. Many measures are for service assessment, including assessments made as part of quality improvement; but a range of rigorously developed measures, including patient-reported outcome measures, is available. Those that are multidimensional and feasible in the real world of patient care are fewer. Domain-specific screening and measurement t

Abstract:

In this chapter, we review the utility of universal definitions and the assessment of family problems and family violence from a public health perspective. First, we document the clinical implications and public health costs of intimate partner violence, child abuse, intimate partner relationship distress, and parent–child relational problems. Second, the current status of these problems in major diagnostic systems and recommendations for improvements in universal assessment are detailed. Third, brief measures that can be used to assess family problems and family violence across a wide range o

Abstract:

The Edmonton Symptom Assessment System (ESAS) consists of eight common symptoms presented as visual analog scales ranging from 0 to 100mm. Patients score the ESAS independently where possible; the scores are summed to form an overall distress score and graphed to create a longitudinal visual representation of symptom burden. This study describes the use of the ESAS for patients with advanced cancer (n = 101) admitted to a palliative care unit in Edmonton, Canada. The ESAS was completed twice daily. In 84% of cases, patients completed the ESAS independently initially; 83% ultimately required nu

To understand the interaction between medical and psychological health in youth, chronic pediatric conditions (Type 1 diabetes and sickle cell disease) are described as prototypes for understanding psychosocial issues (e.g., adherence, pain management) that affect youth with medical conditions.

Crisis calls are a common occurrence in correctional settings. Psychiatrists are often called upon to triage and manage such events. Requests for urgent psychiatric evaluations can come from many sources, including security staff, non-psychiatric physicians, mental health staff, courts, attorneys, and family members. Psychiatrists responding to these requests for evaluation may feel tremendous pressure to reach a conclusion that is consistent with the opinions of the requesting party. However, maintaining an independent and therapeutic stance when conducting crisis evaluations is crucial. Some

The doctrine of informed consent is an important concept in medical care, but presents challenges in the critical care setting, where patients may have diminished capacity to provide their own informed consent.

Currently, there are no universally accepted procedures regarding capacity assessment, especially in critically-ill patients. Such assessments remain subjective, but this chapter provides some guidelines on the subj

Persons with MCI are at markedly increased risk of developing dementia in the near-term and thus are an important target for preventive interventions.

These families who carry risk of poorer outcomes need additional care, optimally commenced during palliative care, and continued into bereavement to provide continuit

Despite the advances of modern medicine, many illnesses continue to evade cure. Chronic, progressive, incurable illness is a major cause of disability, distress, suffering, and, ultimately, death. This is true for many causes of cancer, progressive neurological disorders, AIDS, and other disorders of vital organs. Progressive chronic diseases of this ilk are most common in late adulthood and old age, but they occur in all ages. When cure is not possible, as often it is not, the relief of suffering is the cardinal goal of medicine. The clinical imperative to relive suffering requires a nuanced

Unfortunately, cancellation of patients harboring URIs is not without economic and emotional implications for the patient, the family, and the operating suite as

In most Anglophone jurisdictions the mental capacity to make a Will is governed by the Banks v Goodfellow judgment of 1870. This requires a testator to know what a Will is, the extent of his estate, and who might expect to benefit from his bounty. No mental disorder may affect the disposition of his estate. Older people, especially those with dementia and delirium, are liable to change their Wills under the influence or abuse of others, which leads to acrimonious family disputes. Old age psychiatrists are increasingly called upon to assess the capacity of people about to make Wills, as well as

Abstract:

This chapter covers the most common medical complications of severe CF lung disease, excluding the treatment of infection exacerbation. The section on haemoptysis covers severity assessment, medical and interventional radiological approaches to managing this problem. The particular risks of pneumothorax in CF are then discussed, including the factors guiding referral to surgery. The management of acute and chronic respiratory failure in CF is covered. This includes the indications for home oxygen and for non-invasive ventilation, and guidance on how these should be used in CF. Finally, there i

Abstract:

Depression is frequently associated with other psychiatric disorders, chronic health problems, and distressed close relationships. This comorbidity between depression and other disorders and problems is important. Furthermore, there has been a large increase in research on depressive comorbidity. Therefore, a book of 37 state-of-the-art reviews by experts will be helpful to teachers, researchers, practitioners, developers of relevant policies, and students in these areas. The comorbidity of depression with other psychiatric disorders is addressed in chapters focusing on panic disorder, post-tr

Abstract:

The themes included in this book, involving active collaborators, confirm the need to fill the gap for health and education professionals. By presenting information from reliable sources and step-by-step activities to implement interventions with visual and phonological, dysgraphic, dyscalculic and ADHD dyslexics, it aims to provide effective procedures for screening, evaluation, intervention selection and monitoring. Issues examined such as visual dyslexia analyze developmental dyslexia as a condition that has been associated with motor difficulties, but little is known about what is shared o

Abstract:

Disruptive and conduct disorders, comprising oppositional defiant disorder and conduct disorder, are characterized by behaviors that violate the rights of others or bring the individual into significant conflict with societal norms or authority figures. These disorders are highly prevalent, emerge early in childhood, and are associated with profound disability and societal burden. Given the heterogeneity in presentation and outcomes of youth with disruptive and conduct disorders, attempts have been made to identify more homogeneous subgroups. Notably, children displaying callous–unemotional tr

Abstract:

Up to 53% of patients with chronic nonmalignant pain demonstrate medication nonadherence, and many are nonadherent with behavior-change interventions for pain, presenting a significant challenge to providers managing this population and compromising patient-reported outcomes related to treatment efficacy, symptom control, and quality of life. Patients with chronic pain are often highly complex and present with numerous medical and psychological comorbidities. Many of these comorbidities, including mood, sleep, and substance use disorders, in addition to maladaptive coping with pain and varied

Abstract:

This article explores the correlation between poverty and education. Poverty has been a core concept of interest in research on educational inequality. However, the conceptualization of poverty in empirical educational research does not always, or even usually, conform to definitions and measures that are prevalent in the poverty literature. To further complicate matters, the educational literature subscribes to no uniform set of alternative conceptualizations. This article begins with a discussion of three important functions of education in almost every modern society: imparting knowledge, s
