Drug Therapy01:28

Drug Therapy

39
The advent of drug therapy has profoundly shaped modern mental health care, providing targeted treatments for a range of psychological disorders. Psychotherapeutic drugs, classified into antianxiety, antidepressant, and antipsychotic medications, address symptoms across anxiety disorders, mood disorders, and schizophrenia. While these medications have transformed patient outcomes, they require careful management due to their potential side effects and limitations.

Psychosis: Goals of Pharmacotherapy

104
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.

Pharmacovigilance01:19

Pharmacovigilance

776
Post-marketing surveillance is a critical component of pharmaceutical regulation, often uncovering unanticipated adverse drug reactions (ADRs) once a drug is widely used over an extended period.
This process, termed pharmacovigilance, aims to detect, evaluate, and minimize harmful effects related to medication use. The data collection for pharmacovigilance depends on spontaneous reporting systems, where healthcare professionals or patients voluntarily report suspected ADRs.
In some cases, there...

Pulse rhythm01:30

Pulse rhythm

768
Pulse rhythm refers to the pattern of pulsations within specific intervals, offering valuable insights into the regularity or irregularity of the heart's beats as observed through the pattern of pulsation within specific intervals. A regular pulse exhibits a consistent heart rate with uniform waveforms and pulsation force, variations of which can be classified as normal, weak, or bounding.
Conversely, an irregular pulse pattern is termed dysrhythmia, stemming from disruptions in cardiac...

Psychosis and Antipsychotic Drugs: Overview

183
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...

Holter Monitor: 24-Hour Monitoring01:23

Holter Monitor: 24-Hour Monitoring

3
Holter monitoring is a continuous electrocardiography (ECG) recording that tracks the heart's electrical activity over an extended period, generally 24 to 48 hours. This noninvasive diagnostic tool detects irregular heart rhythms that may not be captured during a standard ECG performed in a clinical setting.DeviceThe Holter monitor is a portable, small device connected to several electrodes on the patient's chest. These electrodes detect the heart's electrical signals and transmit them to the...

Area of Science:

  • Psychiatry
  • Health Informatics
  • Pharmacology

Background:

  • Telecare demonstrates effectiveness in chronic disease management.
  • Psychiatric disorder surveillance via telecare requires further investigation.
  • Public mental health facilities can benefit from innovative patient monitoring solutions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To implement and assess a telemonitoring adjunct for pharmacotherapeutic oversight.
  • To evaluate the utility of telemonitoring in a public mental health outpatient setting.
  • To explore the role of remote consultations in managing psychiatric disorders.

Main Methods:

  • A preliminary trial involving 21 psychiatric outpatients (Jan 2022 - Oct 2022).
  • Non-probabilistic sampling with an average of 3.8 remote consultations per patient.
  • Utilized text messages for 52% of the 79 total remote interactions.

Main Results:

  • Schizophrenia was the predominant diagnosis (61.9%).
  • Telemonitoring facilitated health advisories (52.7%) and therapeutic adjustments (34.4%).
  • An augmented pharmaceutical support framework was established.

Conclusions:

  • Telemonitoring offers a viable method for enhancing pharmaceutical support in psychiatric care.
  • This approach shows potential for increasing healthcare accessibility in public mental health services.
  • Remote patient monitoring can be effectively integrated into outpatient psychiatric settings.
