A Review of Telepsychiatry for Pediatric Patients in the Emergency Setting.
Purpose of review: The purpose of this review is to summarize factors contributing to the current state of pediatric mental health access in ED settings and synthesize the existing literature on the use of telepsychiatry to extend access to care, with particular focus on feasibility and sustainability.
Recent findings: Children are presenting to emergency departments (EDs) with mental health concerns at an increasing rate, while ED capacity to treat psychiatric needs in children remains insufficient. This growing problem is compounded by decreased access to outpatient care and inpatient psychiatric beds, resulting in exorbitantly long waiting times, or "boarding," of children in crisis. Telepsychiatry has emerged as a strategy to decrease boarding of pediatric patients in ED settings by utilizing remote psychiatric professionals to provide consultation and assessment. Telepsychiatry in ED settings is an effective strategy to increase access to care and decrease length of stay for pediatric patients.
期刊介绍:
This journal aims to review the most important, recently published research in psychiatry. By providing clear, insightful, balanced contributions by international experts, the journal intends to serve all those involved in the care of those affected by psychiatric disorders.
We accomplish this aim by appointing international authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas, such as anxiety, medicopsychiatric disorders, and schizophrenia and other related psychotic disorders. Section Editors, in turn, select topics for which leading experts contribute comprehensive review articles that emphasize new developments and recently published papers of major importance, highlighted by annotated reference lists. An international Editorial Board reviews the annual table of contents, suggests articles of special interest to their country/region, and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research. Commentaries from well-known figures in the field are also provided.
