Guidelines for Writing Outcome01:11

Guidelines for Writing Outcome

3.3K
When developing expected outcomes for a patient care plan, the nurse should adhere to the following recommendations:
Patient outcomes reflect the patient's response to the goal rather than what the nurse aims to achieve. Terminology should be observable and measurable to avoid the reader's interpretation. The desired outcome should be realistic and achievable in the designated care timeframe. Expected outcomes should align with adjunctive therapies. The outcome should enhance care...

Psychosis: Goals of Pharmacotherapy

277
Antipsychotic drugs are a crucial treatment method for acute and chronic psychoses, bipolar illness, and behavioral disorders. The selection of these drugs depends on several factors, including the state of the disease, clinical judgment, possible drug interactions, and the patient's sensitivity to adverse effects. In immediate scenarios, such as delirium and dementia, short-term treatment with low doses of high-potency typical or atypical agents can effectively manage symptom exacerbation.

Self-Report Tests of Personality01:22

Self-Report Tests of Personality

509
Self-report inventories are objective personality assessments that use multiple-choice items or numbered scales, typically ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). They are often called Likert scales after Rensis Likert. These inventories are widely used due to their ease of administration and cost-effectiveness. One of the most prominent examples is the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI), initially developed in the 1940s to assess abnormal personality traits.

The term "psychosis" refers to a spectrum of mental disorders characterized by abnormal thoughts, perceptions, and behaviors. It can manifest as mood disorders, dementia, delirium with psychotic features, substance-induced psychosis with psychotic features, brief psychotic disorder, delusional disorder, schizoaffective disorder, and schizophrenia. Among all these disorders, schizophrenia is the most common psychotic disorder, affecting 1% of the worldwide population. Psychotic...

Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM)01:27

Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM)

330
The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) serves as the primary classification system for mental health disorders, providing standardized diagnostic criteria for clinicians and researchers. First published by the American Psychiatric Association (APA) in 1952, the DSM has undergone several revisions to reflect evolving psychiatric understanding. The fifth edition, DSM-5, released in 2013, introduced key updates that expanded diagnostic categories and modified diagnostic...

Area of Science:

  • Psychiatry and Mental Health Research
  • Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) Development
  • Clinical Psychology

Background:

  • Psychotic disorders significantly impact individuals' lives, necessitating standardized methods to assess outcomes.
  • Existing outcome measures may not fully capture the experiences and priorities of service users.
  • Developing patient-centered PROMs is crucial for improving care and research in psychiatry.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a comprehensive set of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) for adolescents and adults diagnosed with psychotic disorders.
  • To ensure the developed measures reflect outcomes that are meaningful and important to service users.
  • To create a validated tool for use in routine clinical practice and research.

Main Methods:

  • An international consensus working group, including service users, clinicians, and researchers, utilized a modified Delphi technique.
  • Systematic literature searches identified potential outcomes, measures, and risk adjustment factors.
  • Iterative processes involving videoconferencing, online surveys, and focus groups refined the outcome set, with final review by over 100 stakeholders.

Main Results:

  • Four core outcome domains were identified: symptoms, recovery, functioning, and treatment.
  • These domains encompass 14 outcomes prioritized by service users.
  • A final set of nine PROMs was selected, taking approximately 35 minutes to complete.

Conclusions:

  • A validated set of patient-reported outcome measures for psychotic disorders is now available for routine clinical practice.
  • The measures are free, available in multiple languages, and directly reflect patient-important outcomes.
  • This PROM set can enhance clinical decision-making, facilitate program evaluation, and support comparative research.
