{"title":"Editorial: Short interventions and self-help interventions in child and adolescent mental health","authors":"Gonzalo Salazar de Pablo","doi":"10.1111/camh.12678","DOIUrl":"10.1111/camh.12678","url":null,"abstract":"&lt;p&gt;Welcome to the November issue of &lt;i&gt;Child and Adolescent Mental Health&lt;/i&gt; (&lt;i&gt;CAMH&lt;/i&gt;). In this issue, several pieces highlight the importance of researching, and in some cases, implementing short interventions and self-help interventions for children and adolescents with mental health concerns while highlighting the importance of finding ways to engage children and young people.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As highlighted in one of the studies providing a tertiary care centre experience for 3 years, visits to paediatric emergency departments and admission rates continue to rise, and novel strategies are needed to find solutions for the limited resources currently available (Manuel, Yen, Feng, &amp; Patel, &lt;span&gt;2023&lt;/span&gt;). These strategies need to ensure that children and adolescents receive high-quality care. These strategies also need to promote engagement for children and young people, and acknowledge that time constraints can limit engagement (Ali, Wright, Curran, &amp; Newton, &lt;span&gt;2022&lt;/span&gt;).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I invite you to read several studies relevant to this matter in this issue, showing how short interventions and self-help interventions can be useful strategies for some children and adolescents. Sams, Garrison, Walsh, Maeng, and Cross (&lt;span&gt;2023&lt;/span&gt;) looked at the impact of a brief inpatient intervention on the length of stay and on readmissions in adolescents who had been admitted into the hospital. This ‘Rapid Stabilization Pathway’, where a safety planning intervention was provided, achieved a decrease in the length of stay at the hospital, and no significant differences in readmissions to the inpatient unit up to 90 days after discharge were found (Sams et al., &lt;span&gt;2023&lt;/span&gt;).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A pilot randomized clinical trial found that a guided paced breathing audiovisual intervention of no more than 10 min per session decreased anxiety symptoms in the intervention group compared to the control group (Shank et al., &lt;span&gt;2022&lt;/span&gt;). Another study evaluating a self-help, online programme showed improvements in anxiety symptoms in children and adolescents, and reductions in life interference in children (Rowe, Evans, Donovan, Spence, &amp; March, &lt;span&gt;2023&lt;/span&gt;).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As highlighted by Loades and Schleider (&lt;span&gt;2023&lt;/span&gt;), single session interventions, even provided as one-off therapeutic interventions, can be helpful to expand current mental health provisions and help young people access evidence-based interventions promptly, including underserved populations such as ethnic minorities or L.G.B.T.Q.I.A+ populations. According to the authors, reductions in depressive symptoms can be achieved at up to 9 months later.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One of the challenges is that these strategies may be helpful for some individuals and some populations, but not necessarily for others. To note, precision strategies typically depend on the characteristics of the patients (Salazar de Pablo et al., &lt;span&gt;2021&lt;/span&gt;). For instance, digital health interventions may be better accep","PeriodicalId":49291,"journal":{"name":"Child and Adolescent Mental Health","volume":"28 4","pages":"471-472"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2023-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/camh.12678","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41172476","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

QA is one of several challenges that can arise as a result of early deprivation. These challenges are referred to as deprivation-specific problems (DSP) and include QA, attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), disinhibited social engagement disorder (DSE) and cognitive impairment. Furthermore, all the DSPs continue to be seen throughout adolescence and early adulthood even when children are removed from deprivation in early childhood.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In this recent study, Rodriguez-Perez et al. (2023) investigated the persistence of QA and other DSPs in adulthood, and the impact of QA on well-being, daily functioning and relationships. A total of 217 adoptees were compared into three groups: those who experienced early deprivation and were identified as having QA in childhood, adoptees who had experienced early deprivation but did not present with childhood QA and adoptees who had no experience of deprivation (Low/No deprivation). A wide range of measures were collected throughout childhood and into early adulthood looking at the presence of DSP symptoms and the outcomes of the adoptees. As it had been demonstrated in previous research, the study finds that symptoms of QA, ADHD and DSE continue to be seen throughout childhood and into young adulthood. IQ also remains significantly lower in adoptees who had experienced early deprivation when compared to those who had not.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Looking specifically at symptoms of QA, the study shows that while the levels of social reciprocal interaction remain the same into early adulthood and repetitive and stereotyped behaviours are marginally better, communication difficulties worsen. This differs from what is typically seen in idiopathic autism where improvements have been identified across all symptom clusters. A further point of note is that, while not as prominent as they are in adoptees with childhood QA, elevated levels of QA symptoms are seen in the adoptees who have experienced childhood deprivation but do not present with QA. Although they may not meet the clinical threshold for QA, people who have experienced deprivation are more likely to experience some of the same difficulties. Regarding the impact of QA on mental health, functioning and relationships, this study demonstrates that QA is linked to higher prevalence of mental health difficulties and use of services as well as negative impact on daily functioning such as education, employment and independent living. However, while those with QA are seen to have less success with romantic relationships, familial relationships are not negatively impacted. Furthermore, the adoptees with childhood QA have comparable levels of self-esteem and life satisfaction to the other groups, in contrast to the","PeriodicalId":49291,"journal":{"name":"Child and Adolescent Mental Health","volume":"28 4","pages":"573-574"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2023-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/camh.12677","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41153220","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
