Abstract:

AbstractThis paper presents an extensive literature review of the psychology of facelift patients as it has evolved over the past 50 years. Earlier studies revealed significant levels of pre and perioperative depression. Facelift patients generally exhibit emotional and social concerns about facial appearance that are higher than the general population. Many are undergoing midlife situational stresses and may lack the positive characteristics to deal with them. The most common diagnoses seen include depression, impulsivity, unstable personality, and passive dependence, albeit not necessarily serious. Improvement in body image is the major driver for surgery. Characteristics of female patients as defined by their age are described. These include the younger emotionally dependent group, the worker group of middle age, and the older grief group. Male patients are seen to have a higher level of psychological dysfunction, but a higher improvement in postoperative quality of life. Motivations for surgery include increasing self-esteem, making new friends, improving relationships, and getting better jobs. Overall patient satisfaction is more than 95%, with improvement seen in positive changes in their life, increased self-confidence and self-esteem, decreased self-consciousness about their appearance, and overall improvement in quality of life. Postoperative psychological reactions are seen in about half the patients, these primarily being anxiety and depression of varying degrees. Predictors of patient satisfaction include the desire for self-image improvement in contradistinction to a change in life situation. Negative predictors include male sex, young age, unrealistic expectations, relationship disturbances, and preexisting psychological pathology. The importance of good patient selection in achieving a satisfied patient is outlined and emphasized.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT The problem of adjusting to old age in our modern society is becoming extremely difficult owing to the high values placed on youth, beauty and virility. For the aged themselves, these are frustrating years. They realize that they are beyond their productive peak and many of their ideas, goals, ambitions, hopes can never be attained. It is unfortunate that the geriatric patient generally needs most of the necessary dental and medical services at an age when he is least able to tolerate and afford them. The dental problems of geriatric patients present in the prosthodontic clinic differ because of the psychological factors always associated with them. The clinician should understand the psychological part of a dental problem of a geriatric patient because it always influences the decision making and treatment plan. An attempt has been made in this article to review these psychological factors and critically analyze their influence in dental treatment plan.

Abstract:

The compulsory detention and treatment of patients against their will is unique to psychiatry. It is arguably the most stressful event in psychiatric practice, both for the doctor and for the patient, and yet, although much has been written about the details of mental health legislation (Clare, 1980; Fennell, 1995), very little has been said about the psychological impact that this procedure has on either the doctor or the patient (exceptions are Mills, 1962; Rogers et al, 1993). This paper will examine the emotional factors involved when a patient is deprived of his or her liberty, and will take as its point of reference the Scottish Mental Health Act.

Abstract:

Psychology and sociology share a common object of study, human behaviour, but from different perspectives. Sociologists have focused on macro variables, such as social structure, education, gender, age, race, etc., while psychology has focused on micro variables such as individual personality and behaviours, beliefs, empathy, listening, etc. Despite the importance of interpersonal relationship skills, they depend on the community or social context in which communication takes place, and by themselves may have little relevance in the consultation. The purely psychological analysis of the doctor-patient relationship often leads to an idyllic vision, with the patient-centred consultation as the greatest exponent, which rarely occurs in real life. The purely sociological or community / social analysis of the doctor-patient relationship leads to a negative view of the consultation, which is always shown as problematic. But, the psychological system in the doctor-patient relationship cannot be neglected, and its study is of importance, at least as an intermediate mechanism that is created through socio-community relations. Although the same social causes are behind the doctor-patient relationship, when acting on psychological factors in the consultation, they act as an optical prism scattering socio-community relations that affect the doctor and the patient, giving rise to a beam of different colors of doctor-patient relationship. In doctor-patient relationship there is a modality of psychotherapy, where attitudes, thoughts and behaviour of the patient, can be change, as well as it can be extended on the way of understanding and therefore changing, his social context. Because of the distance between socio-community relations and the form of doctor-patient relations is growing in complex societies, under these conditions, the sociological factor gives the important place to the psychological factor. Given these difficulties of the doctor-patient relationship one may ask how general medical practice can persist with the usual model of doctor-patient relationship. Pain and the desire to relieve them are the basic reasons for the patient and the doctor, and they do not disappear due to the contradictions of the doctor-patient relationship. In this way, the confrontation between sociological and psychological vision is replaced by an alliance of both currents, and each of them takes on meaning only in the general vision.

Abstract:

Abstract Stimulating patients to approach their pain from a biopsychosocial perspective is central to chronic pain rehabilitation. However, conversations between patients and their healthcare professionals about the social and psychological factors that may contribute to the continuation of pain and disability can be challenging. The current scientific literature does not sufficiently pinpoint the difficulties in patient–practitioner interaction on chronic pain, and it falls short of answering the question of how a joint exploration of the social and psychological factors that might be involved in the patient’s pain and evolving disability can be enhanced. In this theoretical article, we introduce discursive psychology as a potentially valuable research perspective to gain a better understanding of the difficulties in patient–practitioner interaction in the context of chronic pain rehabilitation. Discursive psychology focuses on features of people’s talk (e.g. that of patients and practitioners) and is concerned with the social practices that people perform as part of a specific interactional context. In this paper, we provide an introduction to the main theoretical notions of discursive psychology. We illustrate how discursive psychological analyses can inform our understanding of the specific sensitivities in conversations between patients with chronic pain and their practitioners. Finally, we address how a better understanding of these sensitivities offers a gateway towards improving these conversations.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: A therapeutic relationship forms the basis of care of patients in psychiatric mental health nursing. However, individuals with schizophrenia have difficulty participating in these relationships. Recent research in the area of social cognitive psychology offers that deficits in this area affect the flow of perceiving and relating in interpersonal relationships. This literature has not been applied to nursing. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this article is to review the theories underpinning therapeutic relationships from a nursing and psychological perspective, including the newest research from social cognitive psychology. DESIGN: The article presents a literature review of the theories of nursing, psychology, and social cognitive science. Two patient case studies are used as examples of application of the theories. RESULTS: This article incorporates new knowledge about the components of social cognition to inform nurses as they build therapeutic relationships with patients with chronic and persistent mental illnesses. CONCLUSIONS: The science of social cognitive psychology offers nursing a new perspective on the evolving therapeutic nurse–patient relationship with patients with chronic and persistent mental illnesses. It has implications for clinicians, educators, and nurse scientists.

Abstract:

We tested the association between the palliative patient’s attachment style and the patient–doctor relationship, by means of Revised Adult Attachment Scale and a self-designed, patient–doctor relationship questionnaire. The study included 110 (52 M, 58 F) cancer, hospice patients, aged 36–80 years. We observed 54 percent of secure, 18 percent of dismissive, 9 percent of preoccupied, and 19 percent of fearful styles. Securely attached patients developed significantly ( p < .05) better relationships with doctors than insecure patients. There was no difference in the quality of the patient–doctor relationship among dismissive versus preoccupied versus fearful patients. We argue that attachment theory should be applied in palliative care to improve patients’ quality of life and dying.

Abstract:

Growing evidence suggests that the arts may be useful in health care and in the training of health care professionals. Four art genres – novels, films, paintings and music – are examined for their potential contribution to enhancing patient health and/or making better health care providers. Based on a narrative literature review, we examine the effects of passive (e.g. reading, watching, viewing and listening) and active (e.g. writing, producing, painting and performing) exposure to the four art genres, by both patients and health care providers. Overall, an emerging body of empirical evidence indicates positive effects on psychological and physiological outcome measures in patients and some benefits to medical training. Expressive writing/emotional disclosure, psychoneuroimmunology, Theory of Mind and the Common Sense Model of Self-Regulation are considered as possible theoretical frameworks to help incorporate art genres as sources of inspiration for the further development of health psychology research and clinical applications.

Abstract:

Abstract Introduction Burn patients often experience pain and fear of the recovery process, negatively impacting their engagement in necessary treatments for maximal functional outcomes. Patients routinely exhibit aversions toward physical and occupational therapies (PT and OT). As a result, therapists have been tasked with managing the patient’s psychological reactions while simultaneously providing rehabilitation. We developed a program for our psychologist to co-treat patients with burn physical and occupational therapists to directly address the painful or feared aspects of burn recovery. These multidisciplinary visits offer in-vivo interventions for managing patient distress and allows therapists the ability to focus solely on their specialized interventions. Methods This program has been active for 12 months and was created during therapy to aid a patient with high distress during PT and OT. Therapists now work with psychology to co-treat improving patient engagement in rehabilitative interventions. During co-treatment, the patients are able to engage in PT and OT more effectively and achieve short-term goals. The burn center psychologist and therapists have developed an interventional method to explore potential generalization of co-treatment effectiveness. Patients are identified based on high need for psychological support during therapy sessions. Each patient case is reviewed and discussed to develop individualized treatment plans and establish goals. Through qualitative review of each co-treatment visit, common barriers have been identified as well as strategies to improve engagement and compliance. Results The common barriers encountered had a high association with a history of traumatic experiences and avoidant coping/low distress tolerance. The most effective co-treatment interventions included: collaboratively setting patient goals with PT, OT and psychology; scheduling patient therapy with burn psychology in advance; teaching distress tolerance skills to manage anticipatory and in-vivo distress related to rehabilitation. Conclusions Treating the emotional aspects of burn recovery during moments of acute distress is integral for holistic patient care. This multidisciplinary approach offers patients increased involvement through collaboratively tailored treatment planning and improved ability to tolerate distressing aspects of recovery. Additionally, therapists were taught various approaches to improve patient engagement and adherence.

Abstract:

Abstract Introduction During the past four years, mental health coverage at our burn center has evolved and become more robust. The emotional aspects of burn recovery are well documented; patients often present with co-morbid psychological conditions and develop psychological conditions as a result of the traumatic experience of their injury and subsequent hospitalization. To address this need, our burn center created a burn psychology fellowship and hired a dedicated full-time attending psychologist. Methods The burn center medical director has advocated for increased mental health support for several years. Mental health support was initially provided by the Psychiatry Consultation-Liaison team, and primarily focused on medication management for patients with severe mental illness. Recognizing the need for additional support, the burn center hired a part-time psychologist. After two years of part-time dedicated psychology coverage, a full-time position was approved. Through quantitative data review over the past several years, the number of patients with psychiatric diagnoses and the number of patients connected to mental health treatment during their hospitalization was analyzed. Results The overall patient census at the burn center has increased over the past several years (n=319 FY2016 vs n=506 FY2020). Burn patients with mental health diagnoses has increased along with and beyond the overall patient census growth; 34% (n=173) of patients admitted had a documented psych diagnosis in FY2020 compared to just 21% (n=68) of patients admitted in FY2016. Conclusions Integrating full-time psychology coverage dedicated to the burn center has allowed our patients to be evaluated and treated sooner, which has resulted in shortened time to psychotherapy and psychiatric medication management, and improved discharge planning to include outpatient mental health treatment. A full-time burn psychologist has improved holistic patient care of our burn patient population to positively aid in their overall recovery process.

Full text

Abstract:

The relationship between the doctor and the patient is a particular type of human relation. On one hand, the word «patient» states that a person is at a disadvantage, because of his/her illness, and therefore is automatically at a disadvantageous position compared to the doctor. On the other hand, the patient has the opportunity to inform him/herself from online sources, to communicate with other patients, to participate as equal and to choose consciously his/her treatment plan.There are many different types of patients depending on their personality and interaction with their doctor. These types constituted a research field in the 80’s which lead to the analysis of patients’ psychology. After an historical flashback, patients are put in categories according to their reaction to their illness. In addition, the verbal way of approaching patients by their doctor, the patients’ expectations and their encouragement by professionals to participate more actively concerning their health care is underlined. As a result, this is the beginning of a new era, where the patient has requirements concerning both the medical and the human aspect of the doctor-patient relationship.

Abstract:

The majority of deaths in the United States are attributable to lifestyle-associated chronic diseases. Therapeutic encounters must now routinely address lifestyle-related behavior changes and promote patients’ active involvement in self-care and chronic disease management. Positive psychology has been recognized in the realm of lifestyle medicine for its potential applications in effecting patient behavior change. One notable framework within positive psychology that is well suited for facilitating specific behavior changes is hope theory, which can be used to elicit change talk and build agency among patients with chronic diseases. This review explores key literature in positive psychology and hope theory and its practical applications to direct patient care, which includes an illustrative case study. There are still many unexplored intersections of health-related variables and hope. The cognitive framework of hope theory lends itself well to a broad range of situations, including brief ambulatory encounters. Clinicians will be instrumental in increasing our understanding of how hope theory can be applied to the therapeutic encounter. There are simple and efficient ways to innovate in this area. Having information about a patient’s hope has the potential to make empathic connections easier and create opportunities to ask specific questions to help patients overcome barriers.

Abstract:

Inadequate patient adherence to treatment regimens is a ubiquitous problem in health care and carries a profound personal, societal, and economic cost. This article illustrates a general theoretical framework we believe to be useful for the interpretation, conception, and design of adherence research. The core tenet of this framework is that factors that influence adherence can be better understood by considering the interactive effects of patients’ characteristics, type of adherence intervention, and characteristics of the illness and medical treatment context. This framework represents an extension and application of previous theory and research from personality, social, and clinical psychology concerning the value of an interactionalist perspective. We illustrate the framework using some of our past work involving treatment adherence among patients with chronic renal failure.

Abstract:

129 Background: Despite high distress and empirical support for psychosocial services for cancer patients, the utilization of these services continue to be low. Our aims are to ascertain if the manner of introducing psychology services impact patients’ acceptance of services and identify factors associated with acceptance and barriers of psychology utilization. Methods: 100 PC cancer patients who have not received prior psychology services were randomized to observe two video vignettes: one showed a physician introducing a counselor and psychology services to the patient (PI); another showed a counselor entering and introducing psychology services alone (CI). Randomization was stratified using baseline Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale scores. After viewing both videos, patients completed a survey regarding preference, attitudes, and barriers for psychology services. Patients were blinded regarding the purpose of the study and investigators were blinded to content and order of videos presented. Results: 64 patients reported a preference with 34 preferring PI (p=0.37) and 36 reporting no difference. Younger patients preferred PI (85.7%) versus CI (14.3%, p=0.03). Most reported being aware of available psychology services (N=63), and half (N=50) had been offered psychology services by their physician. Only 40 (40%) patients felt psychology services would be helpful for them, and 43 (43%) reported it would be beneficial for their family/caregivers. Those who found it helpful for themselves or family had higher anxiety than those who did not find it helpful (p=0.03 and p=.02 respectively). The most commonly endorsed barriers for psychology services were travel (N=25) and finances (N=21). Conclusions: We found no significant difference in preference of introduction of psychology services except in patients less than 40 years old who preferred PI. Patients with higher anxiety felt psychology services were helpful for self and family. Only 40% perceived psychology services as useful for self and family. More research is needed to investigate the most effective approach for introducing psychology services to increase perception of usefulness and utilization in cancer patients. Clinical trial information: NCT03035448.

Abstract:

Background: Positive psychology uses targeted activities to increase the frequency and intensity of positive emotional experiences. Positive psychology interventions that increase positive constructs may facilitate adjustment and improve well-being in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). The primary goal of this study was to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a 5-week group positive psychology intervention for patients with MS. In addition, we examined the utility of the group intervention to increase positive psychological constructs and health-related quality of life (HRQOL). Methods: 11 patients completed 5 weeks of group positive psychology training, one time per week (session duration, 45–60 minutes). Each week, patients completed one of the following positive psychology exercises: gratitude for positive events, personal strengths, gratitude letter, enjoyable and meaningful activities, and remembering past successes. Patients completed patient-reported outcome measures, including measures of positive affect, optimism, depression, anxiety, and HRQOL, at baseline and after 5 weeks. Results: All the participants completed the 5-week group positive psychology intervention, and 82% attended four or more sessions. Improvements in fatigue (vitality) and depression after the group intervention were significant (P = .016 and .049, respectively). There were no statistically significant changes in positive or negative affect, optimism, anxiety, HRQOL, or cognition. Conclusions: The 5-week group positive psychology intervention was feasible and acceptable to patients with MS. A randomized controlled trial is necessary to further explore the effectiveness of the group intervention.
