Integrative Treatment for Borderline Personality Disorder 边缘型人格障碍的综合治疗

Severe personality disorders are at the top of the list for many clinicians when asked which group of patients are the most challenging to treat. These challenges often result in clinicians' questioning their skills or feeling resentful toward the patients. Although personality disorders as a group are fairly prevalent in the general population, little attention is paid to them and how they affect the delivery of medical care. In a somewhat cynical view, this is because there are no novel therapeutic agents approved for the treatment of personality disorders, which would then provide the army of pharmaceutical company representatives and hosted lectures. These heterogeneous groups of patients are high utilizers of services, have longstanding illness, are entrenched in the mental health care system, and at first blush offer little hope for a “cure.” Of the list of personality disorders, borderline personality disorder meets many of these criteria, and insurance companies have often seized on this in an attempt to limit expenditures. Although this portends a challenging therapeutic encounter, it also offers a potential for therapist growth and mastery. The motivation behind Integrative Treatment for Borderline Personality Disorder is to provide the therapist with the necessary toolbox to survive and even thrive when treating patients with borderline personality disorder. Although this volume is primarily aimed at therapists treating patients with borderline personality disorder, in the course of the book the author identifies diagnostic concepts and treatment strategies that make the text a valuable read for all therapists. Acknowledging up front some of the difficulties encountered in treating this population, the text seeks to develop in the reader an awareness of where the common pitfalls are and how to successfully navigate them in a typical treatment course. The target audience is mental health care workers at all levels of experience and does not require significant prior experience with psychodynamic or cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). However, those clinicians who have struggled in treating this population will undoubtedly see some of their interactions in the clinical scenarios detailed. In focusing on borderline personality clients, the author meets 2 difficult challenges: first. clarifying diagnostic issues for this population and providing etiological evidence; and second, integrating diverse treatment modalities, ranging from traditional psychodynamic theories to the more modern CBT/dialectical behavioral therapy, with a sprinkling of psychopharmacology on top. Dr. Preston is a practicing psychologist and has served on the faculty of the University of California, Davis, medical school. Moreover, he has earned his writing chops by authoring over 17 books on the subject of mental illness.

对于经验更丰富的临床医生,文本提供了一个彻底的总结与更新的信息和更综合的方法比通常的作者谁已经宣誓效忠于一个特定的心理治疗学校。也许更重要的是贯穿全文的抗疲劳提醒;这些人的治疗目标可能不是“治愈”,而是减轻他们的一些精神痛苦。这使得我们在办公室经历的风暴成为成功干预的机会,可以实现这一目标,让双方都能从这次会面中受益。

Solving Psychiatric Puzzles. 解决精神病学难题。
Pub Date : 2007-06-15 DOI: 10.4088/PCC.V09N0312B
Joseph M. Cerimele, L. Wulsin
Psychiatric treatment is a private experience cloaked in confidentiality and, often for the outsider, mystery. Too rarely, the insiders—psychiatrist or patient—reveal the essentials of how the psychiatric treatment process works. Solving Psychiatric Puzzles by V. Sagar Sethi reveals through the stories of his patients over the last 15 years of practice the process by which he has assessed and treated them. It's a self-portrait of his psychiatric practice. Beginning with an introduction that examines Dr. Sethi's personal history, the way physicians listen, psychiatric decision-making, and a “Very Brief History of Psychiatry,” the book is organized into 3 sections: “Voices of Patients,” “Assorted Stories,” and “Appendices.” The first section presents 10 cases, first through the voice of the patient, describing the symptoms and why psychiatric care was sought, then through Dr. Sethi's summary of the history, the treatment plan, and follow-up visits—often including his thoughts on the difficulties involved in dosing medications, prescribing to children, hearing threats of suicide, involuntary commitment to hospitals, and other challenging areas of psychiatry. The second section presents 17 vignettes illustrating the range of problems faced by a general psychiatrist. The “Appendices” include information for the lay reader on psychiatric disorders, schools of psychotherapy, medication names, and the private practice of psychiatry. Dr. Sethi has written a book that will interest the general reader as well as physicians, medical students, and anyone curious about the practice of psychiatry. He writes of his frustrations with managed care and the changes in medicine that have occurred while he has practiced. Numerous editing errors are distracting, but minor specks on this revealing window into Dr. Sethi's practice.
精神科治疗是一种隐藏在机密之中的私人经历,对外人来说,往往是神秘的。很少有内部人士——精神病医生或病人——透露精神治疗过程的基本原理。V. Sagar Sethi的《解决精神病学难题》通过他的病人在过去15年的实践中讲述的故事,揭示了他评估和治疗他们的过程。这是他精神科工作的自画像。本书以介绍Sethi医生的个人经历、医生倾听的方式、精神病学决策和“精神病学简史”开始,分为三个部分:“病人的声音”、“各种故事”和“附录”。第一部分介绍了10个案例,首先通过患者的声音,描述症状和为什么要寻求精神科治疗,然后通过Sethi医生对病史、治疗计划和随访的总结——通常包括他对药物剂量、给儿童开处方、听到自杀威胁、非自愿住院和精神病学其他具有挑战性领域的困难的想法。第二部分展示了17个小插曲,说明了普通精神病医生面临的问题范围。“附录”包括为外行读者提供的有关精神疾病、心理治疗流派、药物名称和精神病学私人实践的信息。塞西博士写的这本书不仅会引起普通读者的兴趣,还会引起内科医生、医学院学生和任何对精神病学实践感到好奇的人的兴趣。他在书中描述了他对管理式医疗的失望,以及行医期间发生的医学变化。大量的编辑错误让人分心,但对于这扇揭示塞西医生实践的窗口来说,这些错误都是微不足道的。

Trial Designs and Outcomes in Dementia Therapeutic Research. 痴呆治疗研究的试验设计和结果。
Pub Date : 2007-04-16 DOI: 10.4088/PCC.v09n0212b
T. Holsinger
This book was compiled to aid the interpretation of previously done dementia trials and provide assistance in creating meaningful future ones. The volume starts with a brief history of work done to date and proceeds through various clinical trial designs. A considerable amount of time is spent on different potential outcome variables, including a discussion of the representation of these outcomes via scale. Ethical considerations in treatment of dementia as well as in conducting dementia research are also discussed. Trial Designs and Outcomes in Dementia Therapeutic Research, which was edited by 2 Canadian experts on Alzheimer's disease and geriatric medicine, is well organized and indexed. Topics of interest can be easily located. It has useful discussions of different study designs that can be employed in dementia research and the types of bias that can be introduced. Chapters concerning the currently available treatments for dementia, both pharmacologic and psychosocial, are useful reviews now but will very likely rapidly become out of date and contribute little to the overall purpose of the book. The book concludes with the recognition that, while progress has been made in the treatment of dementia, the outcomes wanted by patients—a return to former functioning—are, for the most part, unavailable. Included is an impassioned discussion of what the goals of dementia research should be and how to measure them and consideration of the different aims of different stakeholders. The complexity of dementia and its impact on the elements of personhood, family, caregivers, and the health care system are stressed.
这本书的编纂是为了帮助解释以前做过的痴呆症试验,并为创造有意义的未来提供帮助。卷开始与工作的简史做了迄今为止,并通过各种临床试验设计的收益。相当多的时间花在不同的潜在结果变量上,包括通过规模讨论这些结果的表示。在治疗痴呆以及开展痴呆研究的伦理考虑也进行了讨论。《痴呆症治疗研究的试验设计和结果》由2名加拿大阿尔茨海默病和老年医学专家编辑,组织有序,并有索引。感兴趣的话题很容易找到。它对可用于痴呆症研究的不同研究设计和可引入的偏见类型进行了有益的讨论。关于目前可用的痴呆症治疗方法的章节,包括药理学和心理社会学,现在是有用的回顾,但很可能很快就会过时,对本书的总体目的贡献不大。这本书最后承认,虽然痴呆症的治疗已经取得了进展,但患者想要的结果——恢复以前的功能——在很大程度上是无法实现的。书中充满激情地讨论了痴呆症研究的目标应该是什么,如何衡量这些目标,并考虑了不同利益相关者的不同目标。强调痴呆症的复杂性及其对人格、家庭、照顾者和卫生保健系统等因素的影响。

Psychotherapy as Religion 作为宗教的心理治疗
Pub Date : 2007-04-16 DOI: 10.4088/PCC.V09N0212A
Stephen M. Adams
In Psychotherapy as Religion, author William M. Epstein seeks to demonstrate that the entire field of psychotherapy is based upon unscientific concepts and has never been shown to effectively treat any mental disorder. Dr. Epstein, a professor of social work at the University of Nevada, reports that the basis of his premises are derived from reviewing randomized controlled trials that addressed effectiveness and were published within the past decade in either the American Journal of Psychiatry, Archives of General Psychiatry, or the Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology. The introduction presents the author's conclusion that psychotherapy, while lacking in efficacy, is widely accepted in America because it is in concordance with the nation's “heroic individualism” and belief in personal responsibility for social ills. He argues that psychotherapy has taken on the role of social religion, and finds similarities with Christian Science. The major portion of the book is devoted to criticism of individual studies and meta-analyses. Specific topics include depression, anxiety, eating disorders, addictions, testing methodology, psychodynamic psychotherapy, and cognitive-behavioral therapy. In each chapter, the author identifies apparent limitations in every study he encounters. Many of his arguments appear articulate and well crafted, such as rejecting studies with high attrition rates or lack of an adequate comparison arm. In other instances, he discounts studies on the basis of the argument that psychologists have an inherent conflict of interest when evaluating the validity of their own field, and therefore might not be able to objectively report upon the patients they evaluate. The author's use of complicated sentence structure and obscure vocabulary impairs the readability of the text. Likewise, redundant editorializing detracts from what would otherwise be a straightforward and logical presentation. The book may appeal most to those with an interest in evidence-based medicine and to those true believers in psychotherapy who enjoy having their faith challenged.
在《作为宗教的心理治疗》一书中,作者威廉·m·爱泼斯坦试图证明,整个心理治疗领域都是建立在不科学的概念基础上的,而且从未被证明能有效治疗任何精神障碍。爱泼斯坦博士是内华达大学(University of Nevada)的社会工作教授,他报告说,他的假设的基础来自于回顾了过去十年里发表在《美国精神病学杂志》(American Journal of Psychiatry)、《普通精神病学档案》(Archives of General Psychiatry)或《咨询与临床心理学杂志》(Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology)上的关于有效性的随机对照试验。引言部分提出了作者的结论,即心理治疗虽然缺乏疗效,但在美国被广泛接受,因为它符合美国的“英雄个人主义”和个人对社会弊病负责的信念。他认为心理治疗已经扮演了社会宗教的角色,并发现了与基督教科学的相似之处。这本书的主要部分是对个人研究和元分析的批评。具体的主题包括抑郁、焦虑、饮食失调、成瘾、测试方法、心理动力学心理治疗和认知行为治疗。在每一章中,作者都指出了他所遇到的每一项研究的明显局限性。他的许多论点似乎清晰而精心设计,例如拒绝高流失率或缺乏适当比较的研究。在另一些情况下,他认为心理学家在评估自己领域的有效性时存在固有的利益冲突,因此可能无法客观地报告他们评估的病人,因此他对这些研究不以为然。作者使用复杂的句子结构和晦涩的词汇,损害了文章的可读性。同样,多余的编辑也会减损原本应该是直接和合乎逻辑的陈述。这本书可能最吸引那些对循证医学感兴趣的人,以及那些喜欢自己的信仰受到挑战的心理治疗的真正信徒。

Depression and Brain Dyfunction 抑郁症和脑功能障碍
Pub Date : 2007-02-15 DOI: 10.4088/PCC.V09N0115
S. Ober
Depression is the leading cause of disability in the United States, and worldwide it accounts for more of the disease burden than any other illness but heart disease. However, in contrast to many other common chronic illnesses, this disease has yet to be characterized thoroughly by the elucidation of evidence-based mechanisms for its existence and treatment. Depression and Brain Dysfunction includes 20 authors who contribute to 12 chapters associated with about a dozen color plates. The chapters are well-written, with a congruence of style, and they are replete with over a thousand references, many quite recent. This text is divided into 2 sections that are well-integrated. The first addresses fundamentals of depression, including classification schemes and recent research on neurotransmitter dysregulation, hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis abnormalities, and cellular resistance. Highlighted are recent advances in structural and functional neuroimaging. The second, and more powerful, section focuses on the manifestation of depression in many common illnesses that may serve as useful models to help study clinical and biochemical facets of this disease. Chapter 1 acquaints the reader with the phenomenology or psychopathology of depression, covering its history and including Biblical references, descriptions of the actual experience contrasted with moods and emotions, the Beck cognitive model, categories, and dimensions, as well as current classification schemes. A short discussion of transcultural psychiatry, including problems in diagnosis, ends the chapter. The next 3 chapters develop the concepts of the basic neurobiology of depression and structural changes of brain function. These chapters include a review of neural anatomy, neurotransmitter pathways, and current biochemical models of depression. Results from functional positron emission tomography and single photon emission computed tomography imaging in secondary depressions are linked to these underlying models. The first section concludes with a detailed description of the clinical implications of a genetically epilepsy-prone rat model and affective disorders. The latter half of the text provides a detailed analysis of the epidemiology and impact of depression when it occurs in conjunction with an underlying chronic neurologic condition such as stroke, Parkinson's disease, or Alzheimer's disease, to name a few. Practicing clinicians will find these chapters particularly useful for patient care. Salient clinical questions, such as whether depression increases the risk of cardiac arrhythmias or the risk and severity of diabetes mellitus, are addressed. In addition, each chapter analyzes relevant diagnostic dilemmas and reviews evidence for specific treatment recommendations. Electroconvulsive therapy is not mentioned, due to a paucity of studies in these subgroups. However, more about this robust treatment might have been included in the first part of the book. Depr
在美国,抑郁症是导致残疾的主要原因,在世界范围内,抑郁症造成的疾病负担超过了除心脏病以外的任何其他疾病。然而,与许多其他常见的慢性疾病相比,这种疾病的存在和治疗的循证机制尚未得到彻底的阐明。抑郁症和脑功能障碍包括20位作者,他们贡献了12章与大约12个色板相关的内容。这些章节写得很好,风格一致,它们引用了一千多处,很多都是最近的。这篇文章分为两个部分,很好地整合在一起。第一部分阐述了抑郁症的基本原理,包括分类方案和最近关于神经递质失调、下丘脑-垂体-肾上腺轴异常和细胞抵抗的研究。重点介绍了结构和功能神经成像的最新进展。第二部分,也是更有力的部分,重点关注抑郁症在许多常见疾病中的表现,这可能是帮助研究这种疾病的临床和生化方面的有用模型。第一章向读者介绍了抑郁症的现象学或精神病理学,涵盖了它的历史,包括圣经参考,与情绪和情感对比的实际经验的描述,贝克认知模型,类别和维度,以及当前的分类方案。关于跨文化精神病学的简短讨论,包括诊断中的问题,结束了本章。接下来的3章发展了抑郁症的基本神经生物学概念和脑功能的结构变化。这些章节包括神经解剖学的回顾,神经递质途径,和目前的生化模型的抑郁症。继发性凹陷的功能正电子发射断层扫描和单光子发射计算机断层扫描成像结果与这些基础模型有关。第一部分总结了对遗传性癫痫易感性大鼠模型和情感障碍的临床意义的详细描述。正文的后半部分详细分析了抑郁症的流行病学和影响,当它与潜在的慢性神经系统疾病如中风、帕金森病或阿尔茨海默病等一起发生时。实践临床医生会发现这些章节对病人护理特别有用。突出的临床问题,如抑郁症是否增加心律失常的风险或糖尿病的风险和严重程度,被解决。此外,每章分析了相关的诊断困境,并回顾了具体治疗建议的证据。由于缺乏对这些亚组的研究,电休克疗法未被提及。然而,关于这种强有力的治疗方法的更多内容可能包含在本书的第一部分中。抑郁症和脑功能障碍提供了一个令人印象深刻的和全面的论述抑郁症的许多组成部分,从它的起源到目前的生化模型和临床实践。我相信这篇文章将是有价值的读者从临床和研究领域。

Handbook of Clinical Psychopharmacology for Therapists, 4th ed. 临床精神药理学治疗师手册,第4版。
Pub Date : 2006-12-15 DOI: 10.4088/PCC.V08N0612
R. Zylstra
This book ended up being more than I expected. I was anticipating a handy reference source for commonly used psychotropic medications, which it is, but that is only part of what makes this a useful and valuable resource tool. The Handbook of Clinical Psychopharmacology for Therapists is logically organized into 3 major sections. The first, “Understanding Psychopharmacology: The Basics,” is easily the most academic of the three. Liberal use of case histories and sidebars with interesting anecdotal information, however, make it surprisingly readable and user-friendly. The second section, “Clinical Syndromes: Etiology, Diagnosis, and Treatment Implications,” is the largest and most clinical segment. In it the reader will find a comprehensive list and description of the most common psychiatric disorders. Included in these descriptions are helpful suggestions regarding possible drugs and medical conditions that cause similar behavioral patterns as well as guidelines for when nonmedical practitioners should consider referral for medication treatment. The third section, “Medications and Pharmacologic Treatment,” contains the information that I was initially looking for. Again the authors organize their material in a logical and clinically useful manner on the basis of major drug categories. They also provide handy thumb-tabs along with numerous charts and tables relating to issues such as dose guidelines, common side effects, special considerations, and treatment algorithms. I particularly appreciate their inclusion of a review on over-the-counter and herbal products, an area of increasing interest in recent years. This third section is what will make this text a frequent reference source for me and is the reason I plan to keep it on my desk rather than in my bookcase. The book ends with 8 appendices intended for readers looking for a more in-depth discussion of topics mentioned earlier in the book. Included here are an expanded review of pharmacokinetics, numerous tables listing psychotropic drug interactions, an outline for performing a neurocognitive mental status exam, and a reference list of books to recommend to patients. All in all, the Handbook of Clinical Psychopharmacology for Therapists is a well-written text that is capable of providing the reader with comprehensive review information as well as quick reference assistance.
这本书的结局比我预料的要好。我期待着一个方便的常用精神药物参考来源,它是,但这只是使它成为一个有用和有价值的资源工具的一部分。《临床精神药理学治疗手册》逻辑上分为三个主要部分。第一本,《理解精神药理学:基础》,无疑是三本书中最学术化的一本。然而,自由地使用案例历史和带有有趣轶事信息的边栏,使它具有惊人的可读性和用户友好性。第二部分“临床综合征:病因、诊断和治疗意义”是最大和最临床的部分。在这本书中,读者会发现最常见的精神疾病的综合列表和描述。在这些描述中包含了关于可能导致类似行为模式的药物和医疗条件的有用建议,以及关于非医疗从业人员何时应该考虑转诊进行药物治疗的指南。第三部分“药物和药物治疗”包含了我最初寻找的信息。再次,作者在主要药物类别的基础上,以逻辑和临床有用的方式组织他们的材料。它们还提供方便的拇指标签,以及与剂量指南、常见副作用、特殊注意事项和治疗算法等问题有关的许多图表和表格。我特别欣赏他们对非处方药和草药产品的评论,这是近年来人们越来越感兴趣的领域。这第三部分将使这篇文章成为我经常参考的来源,也是我计划把它放在桌子上而不是书架上的原因。本书以8个附录结尾,旨在为那些希望对本书前面提到的主题进行更深入讨论的读者提供帮助。这里包括对药代动力学的扩展回顾,列出精神药物相互作用的许多表格,执行神经认知精神状态检查的大纲,以及推荐给患者的参考书目。总而言之,临床精神药理学治疗师手册是一本写得很好的文本,能够为读者提供全面的评论信息以及快速的参考帮助。

A Historical Dictionary of Psychiatry 精神病学历史词典
Pub Date : 2006-10-16 DOI: 10.4088/PCC.V08N0511
W. Jackson
I've a confession (well, two). I've a weakness for dictionaries, and I love to read history. So any claim to objectivity in this review is henceforth renounced, and I shall be perfectly happy to share with you why I keep turning back to Dr. Shorter's little book and why it has spent 6 months circulating on my desktop, bedside, and computer table rather than finding a place among its peers in the office library. Edward Shorter, a professor of the history of medicine at the University of Toronto, has a particular interest in the development of psychiatry. In the brief introduction to the dictionary, he outlines 3 broad phases of modern psychiatric practice: the asylum period (1770–1870), the psychoanalytic period (1870–1970), and the pharmacologic period (1970–present). Shorter sees our current era as the renaissance of the biological view of psychiatric illness, in which the biomedical models of illness that typified the asylum period have gained a new footing via molecular and genetic studies that have led to effective pharmacologic treatments. The dictionary is arranged in customary alphabetical fashion, with a variety of entries, including persons, diseases, medications, schools of thought, and schools proper (including hospitals used as such). The descriptions given to each entry range from a half page to several pages and are generally in succinct prose. For instance, the term melancholia is explained to have originated with classical Greek physicians. Next, early quotations from Timothy Bright, John Haslam, Phillippe Pinel, and William Cullen are cited, showing how the term changed in later usage. Robert Burton's The Anatomy of Melancholy (1621) is quoted extensively. The term's decline in usage is noted, as well as its rehabilitation by Karl Leonhard and its subsequent inclusion in the DSM system. The entries give just enough to titillate the interested learner, who can go for lengths of playing “connect-the-dots” with trains of thought, word origins, and conceptual nosology. But who reads dictionaries? Well—me. And medical students, psychiatry residents, generalists who want to know more about psychiatry, and students of the panorama that is the history of medicine. Desktop, bedside, computer table—find a place for Shorter's historical dictionary, and it will stay there for some time to come.
我要坦白一件事(嗯,两件)。我喜欢看字典,我喜欢读历史。因此,这篇评论的任何客观主张从此都将被放弃,我将非常高兴地与你分享,为什么我一直在翻阅肖特博士的这本小书,为什么它花了6个月的时间在我的桌面、床边和电脑桌上循环,而不是在办公室图书馆的同类书中找到一个位置。多伦多大学医学史教授爱德华·肖特(Edward Shorter)对精神病学的发展特别感兴趣。在对词典的简要介绍中,他概述了现代精神病学实践的三个大阶段:精神病院时期(1770-1870),精神分析时期(1870-1970)和药理学时期(1970年至今)。肖特认为,我们当前的时代是精神疾病生物学观点的复兴时期,在这个时代,典型的精神病院时期的疾病生物医学模型通过分子和基因研究获得了新的立脚点,这些研究导致了有效的药物治疗。词典按照习惯的字母顺序排列,有各种各样的词条,包括人物、疾病、药物、思想流派和学校本身(包括医院)。对每个条目的描述从半页到几页不等,通常是简洁的散文。例如,忧郁症一词被解释为起源于古典希腊医生。接下来,引用了蒂莫西·布莱特、约翰·哈斯拉姆、菲利普·皮内尔和威廉·卡伦的早期语录,展示了这个词在后来的用法中是如何变化的。罗伯特·伯顿的《忧郁剖析》(1621)被广泛引用。该术语的使用下降是值得注意的,以及它的恢复由卡尔·莱昂哈德和其随后列入DSM系统。这些条目足以刺激感兴趣的学习者,他们可以用思路、单词起源和概念分类学来玩“串连点”的游戏。但是谁会读字典呢?其实我。还有医科学生,精神病学住院医师,想要了解更多精神病学知识的通才,以及了解医学史全景的学生。桌面、床边、电脑桌——找一个地方放肖特的历史词典,它会在那里待上一段时间。

The Gift of Therapy 治疗的礼物
Pub Date : 2006-07-14 DOI: 10.4088/PCC.v08n0311a
J. C. Fetter
An office visit for even a simple condition like hypertension may be routine to a physician, but patients, in the back of their mind, may fear the implications of the doctor's assessment for the length of their life or changes in their lifestyle. Existential concerns are never far from a physician's daily business, yet we receive little formal instruction in how to use the doctor-patient relationship to talk with patients about issues like death and life meaning in a helpful way. While Yalom's intended audience is the young psychotherapist, physicians of any specialty will find both the existential theme and his reflections on the healing relationship quite relevant to their own practices. The Gift of Therapy is a brief work written as a series of 2- to 3-page tips of the trade, with a tone somewhere between that of an informal memoir and off-the-cuff teaching on morning rounds with a seasoned psychiatrist. It is peppered with brief clinical examples invariably on point, as well as well-distilled literary references. The first 40 mini-essays address the therapeutic relationship, stressing how Yalom works by keeping the content in the moment rather than analyzing past conflicts. The next 10 sections describe how he discusses the issues of death, freedom, and life meaning with patients. Seven sections are devoted to working with dreams, and the remainder of the book is composed of miscellaneous observations and advice on the conduct of therapy with its joys and hazards. A work of this nature is brief by necessity, but it would have been helpful to include a discussion on isolation, since he lists it among the 4 existential life concerns and since it is an integral part of the experience of physical or mental illness. The Gift of Therapy is not an exposition of theory or philosophy—it is meant as a high-yield, practical guide to building healing relationships with patients. Yalom has done a service by demystifying the act of engaging with patients about their ultimate concerns in the moments of great life transition that we physicians are privileged to share with them.
对于医生来说,即使是像高血压这样简单的疾病,也可能是例行公事,但患者在内心深处,可能会担心医生对他们生命长度或生活方式改变的评估的影响。存在的问题从来都不是医生的日常工作,但我们很少得到正式的指导,如何利用医患关系,以有益的方式与病人谈论死亡和生命意义等问题。虽然Yalom的目标受众是年轻的心理治疗师,但任何专业的医生都会发现存在主义主题和他对治疗关系的反思都与他们自己的实践非常相关。《治疗的礼物》(The Gift of Therapy)是一部简短的作品,由一系列2到3页的小贴士组成,其语气介于非正式回忆录和经验丰富的精神科医生上午查班时的即兴教学之间。书中穿插着简明扼要的临床案例,无一例外地切中要点,也不乏精雕细琢的文学参考。前40篇小文章讲述了治疗关系,强调了Yalom如何将内容保持在当下,而不是分析过去的冲突。接下来的10节描述了他如何与病人讨论死亡、自由和生命意义的问题。书中有七个部分是关于梦的研究,剩下的部分是关于治疗的各种观察和建议,包括治疗的乐趣和危险。这种性质的作品必然是简短的,但如果包括对孤立的讨论,将会有所帮助,因为他将其列为存在主义生活的4个问题之一,而且它是身体或精神疾病经历的一个组成部分。《治疗的礼物》不是对理论或哲学的阐述,而是一本关于如何与病人建立治愈关系的实用指南。Yalom做了一项服务,通过消除与患者接触的行为的神秘感,了解他们在重大生命转变时刻的终极关切,我们医生有幸与他们分享。

Movies & Mental Illness: Using Films to Understand Psychotherapy, 2nd ed. 电影与精神疾病:用电影来理解心理治疗,第二版。
Pub Date : 2006-07-14 DOI: 10.4088/PCC.V08N0311B

In our society, movies hold a prodigious power to reflect and sometimes shape our culture. In the last 10 years, we've gained easy and inexpensive access to large numbers of movies through libraries, rental stores, cable TV, and the Internet. This should be good news for teachers of all kinds, but how often do we use movies in our teaching? For most of us health educators, the leap from viewing movies as easy entertainment to using them as effective teaching tools requires guidance by experts who know both the movies and the health topic of interest. For teachers of topics relating to mental illness, the first hurdle is the question, “What do we do with so many good movies and so many bad movies about mental illness?” The number of movies about mental illness overwhelms most of us. Then the process of finding the right movie for a class session, selecting the key sections, and preparing the relevant questions can seem like more work than it's worth. In their second revised and expanded edition of Movies & Mental Illness, Wedding, Boyd, and Niemiec have provided us an informative guide that draws on nearly 1000 films. This encyclopedic but friendly paperback volume is written for teachers and students of psychopathology courses and is intended for use as a supplement to core psychopathology texts. Medical educators such as teachers of behavioral science curricula in family medicine, other primary care disciplines, and psychiatry will find it a valuable time-saver for those who want to add drama to the classroom. The authors, 2 psychologists and a social worker, organize this second edition of Movies & Mental Illness around 13 diagnostic or assessment categories. Each chapter begins with questions to consider while watching the specific movie the authors selected to illustrate the category. The authors then demonstrate their clinical approach in the form of a “fabricated case history” of the key character. A Beautiful Mind and John Nash provide the focus for the chapter on schizophrenia, and Psycho and Norman Bates provide the focus for the chapter on dissociative disorders. Elaboration on the disorders, including theoretical background, and on other movies, including “additional questions for discussion,” gives breadth to the chapters. The authors are not timid about pointing out the misrepresentations of mental illness that contribute to stigma, as listed in Appendix E. However, the book might have been stronger if the authors had acknowledged the potential influence of the disproportionate number of female villains (32%) to female heroes (12%) in Appendix B on perpetuating gender stereotypes. The authors have accumulated a wealth of knowledge, most compactly collected in “Appendix G,” their annotated list of nearly 1000 movies, organized by psychopathologic topics, each movie receiving the authors' 5-point rating for the movie's value as a teaching film as well as a work of art. They also maintain a Web site with this information plus p
在我们的社会中,电影拥有巨大的力量来反映,有时甚至塑造我们的文化。在过去的10年里,我们可以通过图书馆、出租店、有线电视和互联网轻松廉价地观看大量电影。这对所有类型的教师来说都应该是个好消息,但是我们在教学中经常使用电影吗?对于我们大多数健康教育工作者来说,从把看电影当作简单的娱乐活动,到把它们作为有效的教学工具,需要既了解电影又了解健康话题的专家的指导。对于教授精神疾病相关主题的教师来说,第一个障碍是这样一个问题:“我们该如何处理这么多关于精神疾病的好电影和坏电影?”关于精神疾病的电影数量让我们大多数人不知所措。然后,为课堂寻找合适的电影,选择关键部分,准备相关问题的过程似乎比它的价值更多。在《电影与精神疾病》的第二修订版和扩充版中,Wedding、Boyd和Niemiec为我们提供了一个信息丰富的指南,其中引用了近1000部电影。这百科全书,但友好的平装本卷是写的教师和学生的精神病理学课程,并打算用作补充核心精神病理学文本。医学教育工作者,如家庭医学、其他初级保健学科和精神病学的行为科学课程教师,会发现对于那些想在课堂上增加戏剧性的人来说,这是一个宝贵的节省时间的方法。作者是两位心理学家和一位社会工作者,他们围绕13个诊断或评估类别组织了第二版的《电影与精神疾病》。每章开始考虑的问题,而观看具体的电影作者选择来说明类别。然后,作者以关键人物的“捏造的病例史”的形式展示了他们的临床方法。《美丽心灵》和约翰·纳什为精神分裂症这一章提供了重点,《精神病患者》和诺曼·贝茨为解离性障碍这一章提供了重点。对疾病的阐述,包括理论背景,以及对其他电影的阐述,包括“讨论的附加问题”,使章节更加宽广。正如附录e中所列,作者们毫不避讳地指出了对精神疾病的误解会导致耻辱。然而,如果作者们承认附录B中不成比例的女性反派(32%)对女性英雄(12%)对性别刻板印象的潜在影响,这本书可能会更有力。作者积累了丰富的知识,最紧凑地收集在“附录G”中,他们的注释列表中有近1000部电影,按精神病理学主题组织,每部电影都获得了作者的5分评价,即电影作为教学电影和艺术作品的价值。他们还维护一个网站,在http://mimh.edu/danny_wedding上提供这些信息并定期更新。这本书唯一的缺点是没有索引。我发现这本书在给精神科住院医生上抑郁症心理动力学课时很有用,我在课上放了一段《沙与雾之家》的片段,是受这本书中关于情绪障碍的章节的启发。我还用这本书为一个对身心医学感兴趣的医科学生的网站挑选电影和笔记。在《电影与精神疾病》的帮助下,精神病理学的学习和教学应该变得更有趣、更生动、更有效。

Standards in Dementia Care 痴呆症护理标准
Pub Date : 2006-04-15 DOI: 10.4088/PCC.v08n0212b
Manoj Kumar Singh
edited by Alistair Burns on behalf of the European Dementia Consensus Network (EDCON) Group. Taylor & Francis Group, New York, N.Y., 2005, 224 pages, $99.95. In a world with a gradually aging population, dementia is a global problem that is becoming increasingly common. According to Alzheimer Disease International, there are 18 million people worldwide with dementia, of whom almost 25% live in Europe.1 The current state of dementia care in Europe is, therefore, of great interest. Controversies in the evaluation and treatment of dementia in the United States have lead to an abundance of guidelines from geriatric, family medicine, neurology, and psychiatry organizations. Standards in Dementia Care is an ambitious effort from the European Dementia Consensus Network, or EDCON, to summarize and synthesize current practices and guidelines for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease across Europe. EDCON's members are drawn from the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Spain, and Denmark. This book is divided into 6 sections: an introduction, a European perspective on the practice of dementia care, multidisciplinary working, carer stress, services, and ethical/legal issues. In most chapters, perspectives from different European countries are presented. In the introduction, titled “Standards of Care in Dementia in Europe—A Consensus,” EDCON gives 6 general recommendations for the care of patients with dementia: standardization in care; standards that are evidence-based and applicable to the different sites of care (home as opposed to a long-term care facility, for example); a partnership between patients, their care-givers, and their health care and social workers; carefully planned services; preservation of the dignity of the patient; and support of the caregiver. The second section consists of a general review of dementia care in the 18 European countries. This is perhaps the most interesting section, as an incredible variability in services between countries is displayed. Nations that are wealthier and have socialistic health care offer more detailed and comprehensive services that are government funded. Some countries have government-sponsored research related to dementia care and a national health policy in which geriatric and dementia services are provided. Some countries have guidelines about the diagnosis of dementia, including the role of investigations such as magnetic resonance imaging. The coverage of medications for dementia is also quite variable. Coverage of expensive cholinesterase inhibitors is not universal, and in some countries such as Denmark, only a neurologist can prescribe them. Services such as day care, nursing home care, hospitalization, and respite care are often available, but inadequate funding is common.

由Alistair Burns代表欧洲痴呆症共识网络(EDCON)集团编辑。泰勒和弗朗西斯集团,纽约,纽约,2005年,224页,99.95美元。在人口逐渐老龄化的世界中,痴呆症是一个日益普遍的全球性问题。据国际阿尔茨海默病组织称,全世界有1800万人患有痴呆症,其中近25%生活在欧洲。因此,欧洲痴呆症护理的现状引起了人们的极大兴趣。在美国,对痴呆症的评估和治疗存在争议,导致老年医学、家庭医学、神经病学和精神病学组织制定了大量指南。痴呆症护理标准是欧洲痴呆症共识网络(EDCON)的一项雄心勃勃的努力,旨在总结和综合欧洲阿尔茨海默病治疗的当前实践和指南。EDCON的成员来自英国、荷兰、瑞士、西班牙和丹麦。本书分为6个部分:介绍,对痴呆症护理实践的欧洲观点,多学科工作,护理人员压力,服务和道德/法律问题。在大多数章节中,介绍了来自不同欧洲国家的观点。在题为“欧洲痴呆症护理标准——共识”的导言中,EDCON给出了痴呆症患者护理的6项一般性建议:护理标准化;以证据为基础并适用于不同护理场所的标准(例如,与长期护理机构相对的家庭);患者、其照护者及其卫生保健和社会工作者之间的伙伴关系;精心策划的服务;维护病人的尊严;以及照顾者的支持。第二部分包括对18个欧洲国家的痴呆症护理的一般审查。这可能是最有趣的部分,因为显示了国家之间服务的惊人差异。较富裕和拥有社会主义医疗保健的国家提供更详细和全面的服务,这些服务由政府资助。一些国家有政府资助的与痴呆症护理有关的研究,并有一项提供老年和痴呆症服务的国家卫生政策。一些国家有关于痴呆症诊断的指导方针,包括磁共振成像等调查的作用。痴呆症药物的覆盖范围也各不相同。昂贵的胆碱酯酶抑制剂的覆盖范围并不普遍,在丹麦等一些国家,只有神经科医生才能开处方。诸如日托、养老院护理、住院和临时护理等服务通常是可用的,但资金不足是常见的。亚专科服务往往是有限的,甚至根本不存在(例如,只有英国有发达的“老年精神病学”服务)。在德国,老年医生严重短缺,其中大多数集中在大学环境中。在比利时,银杏被包括在内,甚至有法律允许在非常特殊的情况下安乐死。乌克兰是一个资金和国家指导方针都不足的国家。也许正是由于这个原因,乌克兰的痴呆症患者自杀率很高。第三部分,“多学科工作”,包括13个不同的章节,涵盖了痴呆症护理中涉及的不同学科的问题。一些人讨论了这门学科在作者的祖国是如何运作的,而另一些人则讨论了这门学科的总体价值。例如,在第23章中,EDCON的成员、英国老年精神病学教授Alistair Burns博士解释了老年精神病学家的作用,尽管这个亚专业在欧洲大部分地区都没有发现。作者很好地概述了初级保健医生、专科医生、护士、社会工作者和其他照顾和治疗痴呆症患者的人如何能够而且应该共同努力,提高痴呆症患者接受的护理质量。第四部分是关于照顾者的压力。有趣的是,在欧洲,和在美国一样,大多数照顾者都是女性,她们要应对“巨大的心理压力”。这些章节概述了照顾者的压力,支持照顾者的组织,以及虐待老年人。每章都总结了主题并给出了实用的建议。在大多数情况下,这些章节没有过分详细说明任何一个国家的问题或资源,而是提供了一个更全球的视角。第五部分的标题是“服务”,这七章主要关注特定国家某些服务的可用性。主要提供记忆诊所和痴呆症服务中心。本文概述了记忆诊所,并就如何发展这些诊所提出了建议。

Taylor & Francis Group, New York, N.Y., 2005, 224 pages, $99.95. \u0000 \u0000In a world with a gradually aging population, dementia is a global problem that is becoming increasingly common. According to Alzheimer Disease International, there are 18 million people worldwide with dementia, of whom almost 25% live in Europe.1 The current state of dementia care in Europe is, therefore, of great interest. \u0000 \u0000Controversies in the evaluation and treatment of dementia in the United States have lead to an abundance of guidelines from geriatric, family medicine, neurology, and psychiatry organizations. Standards in Dementia Care is an ambitious effort from the European Dementia Consensus Network, or EDCON, to summarize and synthesize current practices and guidelines for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease across Europe. EDCON's members are drawn from the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Spain, and Denmark. \u0000 \u0000This book is divided into 6 sections: an introduction, a European perspective on the practice of dementia care, multidisciplinary working, carer stress, services, and ethical/legal issues. In most chapters, perspectives from different European countries are presented. \u0000 \u0000In the introduction, titled “Standards of Care in Dementia in Europe—A Consensus,” EDCON gives 6 general recommendations for the care of patients with dementia: standardization in care; standards that are evidence-based and applicable to the different sites of care (home as opposed to a long-term care facility, for example); a partnership between patients, their care-givers, and their health care and social workers; carefully planned services; preservation of the dignity of the patient; and support of the caregiver. \u0000 \u0000The second section consists of a general review of dementia care in the 18 European countries. This is perhaps the most interesting section, as an incredible variability in services between countries is displayed. Nations that are wealthier and have socialistic health care offer more detailed and comprehensive services that are government funded. Some countries have government-sponsored research related to dementia care and a national health policy in which geriatric and dementia services are provided. Some countries have guidelines about the diagnosis of dementia, including the role of investigations such as magnetic resonance imaging. The coverage of medications for dementia is also quite variable. Coverage of expensive cholinesterase inhibitors is not universal, and in some countries such as Denmark, only a neurologist can prescribe them. Services such as day care, nursing home care, hospitalization, and respite care are often available, but inadequate funding is common. Subspecialty services are frequently limited, or even nonexistent (for example, only the United Kingdom has a well-developed “Old Age Psychiatry” service).
