This study was carried out to investigate the health-risk behaviors and peer pressure of adolescents aged 12–18 years in need of protection at child protective services.
Methods
The data of this cross-sectional study were collected using individual interviews with 85 adolescents living in child homes and child homes buildings complex between February 25 and May 31, 2019. The data were collected using the “Descriptive Information Form,” the “Health-Risk Behaviors Questionnaire,” and the “Peer Pressure Questionnaire.”
Findings
The results of study in adolescents were 34.1% were in the risk group in terms of weight, and 41.2% had a psychiatric problem. Among the health-risk behaviors of adolescents; 56.5% did not pay attention to daily nutrition, 51.8% had fast food every day, 54.1% injury behaviors were doing dangerous sports, only 15.3% wore seat belts, 78.8% did not exercise three or more days per week, 38.8% watched television and computer three or more hours per day, 27.1% used painkillers without consulting a doctor, 24.7% applied the health recommendations they read on the internet, 20.0% of the adolescents reported that they went on a diet without consulting the healthcare personnel, and 14.1% voluntary vomited to lose or maintain their weight. And 21.2% of the adolescents were exposed to peer pressure.
Conclusions
It was concluded that adolescents in need of protection at child protective services have health-risk behaviors and low-level peer pressure.

Problem
A gap in the literature exists attempting to understand the impact that the influx of pediatric psychiatric patients has had on inpatient general medicine pediatric nursing staff.
Methods
A mixed-method research study was conducted among full- and part-time pediatric nurses and nursing assistants working on general pediatric units. Quantitative data was collected via an anonymous survey using the Professional Quality of Life Scale version 5 and Support Appraisal for Work Stressors scale. Surveys were followed by semistructured interviews.
Findings
Of the 158 staff eligible, 47 (29.7%) participated in the quantitative portion. [Correction added on 29 September 2023, after the first online publication: In the preceding sentence, the participation rate was revised from 23.5% to 29.7% in this version.] Significant differences were found between roles, with nurses experiencing lower levels of compassion satisfaction and higher levels of burnout. Role differences were seen in supervisor support and nonwork support, with nurses reporting less support from both. Supervisor support showed a significant correlational relationship with compassion satisfaction and burnout. Nonwork support showed similar correlations with compassion satisfaction and burnout. Themes that emerged from the interviews were Barriers to Care, Emotional Impact, and “Help Me Help You.”
Conclusion
Nurses may be at greater risk for compassion fatigue due to perceived inadequate support from leadership, unclear role expectations, and lack of resources.

Problem
The COVID-19 pandemic has triggered or exacerbated eating disorders (EDs), especially in adolescents. This study examined the prevalence of admissions of patients with EDs at the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Unit from the pre-COVID-19 pandemic to March 2023 and explored the differences in dimensions of ED's symptomatology according to the year of access.
Methods
We included 174 children and adolescents, 94.3% females and 5.7% males, with a diagnosis of ED (Mage = 14.87; SD = 1.72). The Eating Disorder Inventory-3 (EDI-3), the Body Uneasiness Test (BUT) and Youth Self Report ASEBA (YSR) were assessed. A one-way analysis of variance test was performed.
Findings
EDs' hospitalization prevalence was higher in the years 2020 and 2021 compared to pre-COVID-19 and the year 2022. Considering the ED psychopathology (EDI-3), findings showed a higher score in the dimension of the push to thinness, body dissatisfaction, asceticism, and fear of maturity in the year 2021 compared to pre-pandemic. Regarding the discomfort related to the image of one's own body (BUT), results showed an increase in the global severity index in the year 2022 compared to pre-pandemic and in weight phobia in the year 2021 compared to the year 2020. Concerning the internalizing symptoms (YSR), a tendency was found for withdrawal/depression, with higher levels in the year 2022 compared to the year 2020.
Conclusions
Our study highlighted the increase of different types of EDs symptomatology related to concerns about weight, especially 2 and 3 years after the outbreak of the pandemic, on which the literature is still scarce, especially in the Italian context.

The prevalence of psychotropic medication prescription use in youth has increased over the past several years. Despite recommendations and practice parameters established by the American Diabetes Association-American Psychiatric Association (ADA-APA) outlining metabolic monitoring of patients prescribed second-generation antipsychotic (SGA) medication, monitoring adherence for the pediatric patient population remains inadequate.
Aims
This project aimed to improve metabolic monitoring of pediatric patients prescribed SGAs and discharge recommendations for follow-up monitoring within a small, child, and adolescent psychiatric hospital.
Methods
This project compared metabolic monitoring adherence rates pre and postimplementation of a metabolic monitoring organizational policy developed to provide procedural guidance, using ADA-APA guidelines. Participants included prescribing clinicians (physicians and psychiatric nurse practitioners).
Results
Phase 1 chart reviews found no records of fasting blood glucose, fasting lipid profile or waist circumference. Following project implementation, chart review found that fasting blood glucose and fasting lipid profile was recorded in 21 (72.4%) of the charts, and waist circumference was recorded in 18 (62.1%) of the charts for patients prescribed SGA medication. For patients discharged on an SGA, written recommendations for follow-up metabolic monitoring improved from 13% to 70% (<0.001).
Conclusions
Implementing an organizational metabolic monitoring policy and protocol can improve clinician adherence to ADA-APA guidelines for recording in-patient monitoring of metabolic parameters and discharge recommendations for pediatric patients prescribed SGA medication.

Despite their relevance to assessment and clinical decision-making in behavioral health, measurement tools are still rarely used in clinical settings. With an increase in undiagnosed and untreated mental health problems in children and adolescents, a southeastern US Community Health System was the ideal setting for the implementation of a behavioral health assessment tool.
Methods
This quality improvement project was conducted to address the question: “Among mental health clinicians at the Community Health System, will the use of the DSM-5 parent/guardian-rated level 1 cross-cutting symptom measure 6−17 (CCSM) improve diagnosis and treatment choices of children with mental health conditions, over a 4-week period?” A convenience sample was recruited from among behavioral health counselors working at various out-patient clinics and school-based counseling sites in the Community Health System. After nurse-led training on use of the CCSM, including a PowerPoint intervention and individual coaching sessions, the five clinical participants were encouraged to use the CCSM screening tool on their patients presenting for mental health assessment. Knowledge of the tool was assessed using a pre- and post-training survey. Completed screening tools were collected from participants over the 4-week duration of the project.
Findings
A chart audit comparing the project period with the previous year showed an increase in diagnosis and treatment in 6−17 year-old patients at the outpatient clinic.
Conclusions
This project demonstrated the usefulness of the CCSM for behavioral health assessment in the child/adolescent population at the Community Health System and supported use of the intervention in other clinics.

Problem
Little is known about issues of patient-reported problems, in particular within psychiatric services for children with mental ill health. Child and family complaints related to child mental health services can be analyzed and discussed in light of the universal human right to health and healthcare. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyze child and family complaints related to child mental health services.
Methods
A retrospective, descriptive design was used. Child and family complaints were analyzed with a qualitative thematic analysis.
Findings
The findings were described in three themes describing lack of access to care, inadequate communication between services and children with mental ill health and their families, and lack of clarity of who is responsible for care, leading to neglect of children's needs. These issues place a huge responsibility on parents or relatives.
Conclusion
Better communication within mental health services, and better collaboration with other services such as school and social services, could limit children's suffering. Healthcare services with named professionals who specialize in child mental health and provide continuity in care, are required. General human rights principles should guide planning and care of children.

Adolescence is a period of biological, cognitive, psychosocial, and emotional development. Negative experiences of Coronavirus (COVID-19) infection are associated with more changes which impacts on quality of life (QoL). However, parent-proxy and child self-reports may vary, and we have lack of knowledge about these discrepancies.

Then 196 participants were divided into intervention (N = 96) and control (N = 100) groups and Health Related QoL was assessed using the PedsQL™.
Results
The results showed significant increase in scores of total QoL and all QoL domains in adolescents by self-reports of adolescents and mothers proxy reports (except emotional performance) compared to the control group at T2 (p < 0.05). Furthermore, mother's rated increase in social performance significantly higher in both groups at T2.
