Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'approche développementale d'un trouble psychiatrique intéresse l'exercice clinique en psychiatrie de l'adulte comme en pédopsychiatrie. Nous avons choisi cette approche pour décrire les liens unissant le trouble déficit attentionnel / hyperactivité (TDAH) infantile à l'alcoolo-dépendance à l'âge adulte par une analyse de la littérature. Les données épidémiologiques montrent une association du TDAH, dans ses dormes persistantes, sévères et associées à des conduites antisociales précoces, à une plus grande fréquence d'abus et de dépendance à l'alcool à l'âge adulte. L'alcoolisme est alors plus précoce et plus intense. Il est souvent comorbide à une personnalité antisociale et intégré dans une polytoxicomanie. Les approches tempéramentales, cognitives, génétiques et neurobiologiques aident à circonscrire le lien entre les deux cadres morbides. Ces troubles partagent une vulnérabilité familiale sous-tendue par des facteurs génétiques. Des niveaux élevés d'activité, de recherche de sensation et de nouveauté, et certains traits cognitifs relevant d'un déficit préfrontal, sont les témoins précoces de cette susceptibilité. Ces différents traits sont cohérents avec les hypothèses neurobiologiques, en faveur d'une dysfonction dopaminergique impliquée dans un déficit au renforcement différé. Ce déficit du système de récompense pourrait prédisposer à l'usage précoce de substances, à la survenue et à la pérennisation d'une dépendance à l'alcool. Les différents facteurs de vulnérabilité sont alors à concevoir en interaction avec l'environnement tout le long du développement. Trois vignettes cliniques permettent d'illustrer les différentes étapes développementales (enfance, adolescence, âge adulte) et de souligner l'hétérogénéité clinique associée aux premières alcoolisations
Download or read book Intrications pid miologiques entre le trouble d ficit de l attention et hyperactivit chez l adulte et le trouble de l usage de l alcool written by Charles Lescut and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contexte : Au niveau mondial, la prévalence du Trouble Déficit de l'Attention et Hyperactivité (TDAH) de l'adulte est de 3.4%. Chez l'enfant ce trouble est un facteur de risque important de développer un trouble de l'usage de l'alcool (TUA). Peu diagnostiqué chez l'adulte, il est pourtant associé avec un risque de développer un trouble des substances. Méthode : Nous avons réalisé une revue systématique de la littérature à partir des bases de données Medline et Science direct selon le pattern de mots clés suivant : « ADHD » AND « alcohol » AND « adult » AND « epidemiology ». Nous avons ensuite sélectionné les articles selon des critères prédéfinis. Résultats : 22 articles pertinents ont été sélectionnés. La prévalence du TDAH à l'âge adulte chez les patients alcoolo dépendants était de 7.7% à 32.9%. Chez les patients adultes TDAH, la prévalence d'abus d'alcool était de 23.3% à 47% et celle de l'alcoolo dépendance de 20.8 %. Dans la majorité des études, on retrouve une association statistiquement significative entre TDAH de l'adulte et TUA. Les complications dues à la consommation d'alcool sont plus fréquentes chez les patients adultes TDAH. Conclusion : Il semble utile de repérer les patients TDAH dans les services d'addictologie ou en médecine générale. Cela permettrait d'adapter la prise en charge, ou de prévenir le passage d'un usage simple à un mésusage.
Download or read book Les antipsychotiques Les m dicaments psychotropes written by THOMAS Pierre and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2013-12-16 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le développement des antipsychotiques a marqué une nouvelle ère thérapeutique après la découverte du premier neuroleptique dans les années 1950. Leur principale indication demeure les symptômes psychotiques, même s’ils offrent également de nouvelles perspectives de traitement pour certains troubles de la personnalité ou du comportement. Cependant, l’image négative qu’ont longtemps eue les neuroleptiques n’est pas totalement effacée, et cet ouvrage a pour but d’apporter toutes les informations nécessaires aux prescripteurs pour rationaliser leur choix thérapeutique et favoriser le meilleur usage possible des antipsychotiques : - les bases fondamentales : pharmacologie, pharmacogénétique, effets métaboliques et cognitifs ; - les aspects cliniques : épisodes aigus de schizophrénie, troubles bipolaires, troubles affectifs non bipolaires, TOC et affections neurologiques, tolérance des antipsychotiques et molécules à action prolongée ; - les spécificités liées aux populations : enfants et adolescents, période périnatale, personnes âgées, situations d’urgence ; - le bon usage et l’éducation thérapeutique du patient. Réunissant une quarantaine de spécialistes reconnus, riche d’une cinquantaine de tableaux et schémas explicatifs et d’un index détaillé, cet ouvrage est la référence indispensable pour tous les praticiens devant prescrire des antipsychotiques.
Download or read book Managing ADHD in the presence of substance use disorders written by Frieda Matthys and published by Gompel&Svacina. This book was released on 2018 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ADHD is a highly comorbid disorder in patients with substance use disorders (SUD). This comorbid patient population is, however, often undertreated. Diagnosing ADHD in patients with SUD is not easy due to the large overlap of the ADHD characteristics with symptoms of intoxication and withdrawal. These patients often disappear prematurely from the treatment services, on the one hand because their untreated ADHD symptoms make it more diffi cult to follow the therapy, on the other hand because the treatment programs do not take their limitations into account. Caregivers expressed a great need for concrete tools to work with these patients. Therefore, “Managing ADHD in the presence of substance use disorders” consists of a theoretical and a practical part. The different aspects of the treatment are described from various therapeutic perspectives, and elaborated in ten modules with downloadable worksheets. “This is a practical and insightful book that I highly recommend to both novice and experienced clinicians alike.” Frances R. Levin, MD PhD, Columbia University Medical Center/New York State Psychiatric Institute “For the fi rst time clinical and scientifi c knowledge is summarized and integrated in a handsome format. In addition, this book can be used by clinicians and patients in the context of psychoeducation and as a shared decision making aid.” Wim van den Brink, MD PhD, Professor of Psychiatry and Addiction, Academic Medical Centre, University of Amsterdam

Download or read book Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Adult ADHD written by J. Russell Ramsay and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-09-25 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Adult ADHD: An Integrative Psychosocial and Medical Approach has been revised, updated, and expanded for this second edition and remains the definitive book for clinicians seeking to treat adults with ADHD. Clinicians will continue to benefit from the presentation of an evidence-supported treatment approach for adults with ADHD that combines cognitive behavioral therapy and pharmacotherapy adapted for this challenging clinical population. The updated edition of the book offers new and expanded case examples, and the authors emphasize more detailed, clinician-friendly "how to" instructions for the delivery of specific interventions for adult patients with ADHD. Understanding that most adults with ADHD say, "I know exactly what I need to do, but I just cannot make myself do it," the book pays special attention to the use of implementation strategies to help patients carry out the necessary coping skills to achieve improvements in functioning and well-being in their daily lives. In addition to providing an outline of their treatment approach, Drs. Ramsay and Rostain provide an up-to-date review of the current scientific understanding of the etiology, developmental course, and life outcomes of adults with ADHD as well as the components of an thorough diagnostic evaluation. As an added clinical resource, Drs. Ramsay and Rostain have also produced a companion patient handbook written for adults with ADHD, The Adult ADHD Tool Kit: Using CBT to Facilitate Coping Inside and Out, which clinicians can use with their patients.

Download or read book Neurocircuitry of Addiction written by Nicholas W. Gilpin and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2022-11-29 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People use drugs for many different reasons, including the pursuit of "high," social factors and self-medication of other conditions. Many millions of people are addicted to at least one substance, and the cost of addiction is immense, at both the individual and societal levels. Neurocircuitry of Addiction is the first book of its kind, with a focus on addiction neuroscience from a neural circuit perspective. This book begins with a primer on circuit-based neuroscience that equips the reader with an understanding of the applications described throughout the book. Each subsequent chapter positions a different brain region at the "center" of addiction neurocircuitry and goes on to describe the anatomical connectivity of that brain region, how those circuits are affected by drug exposure, and the role of those circuits in controlling addiction-related behaviors. All chapters of this book are written by content experts for a target audience that has some basic neuroscience background, but no prior in-depth knowledge regarding the neurocircuitry of addiction. Reviews the circuit-based tools that are used by scientists to investigate neural circuit function Describes how acute and chronic alcohol and drug exposure affect neural circuit function Describes the state of the science regarding the role of specific neural circuis in drug addiction Chapters include data from both human neuroscience and animal models
Download or read book The Neurobiological Basis of Suicide written by Yogesh Dwivedi and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2012-06-25 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With recent studies using genetic, epigenetic, and other molecular and neurochemical approaches, a new era has begun in understanding pathophysiology of suicide. Emerging evidence suggests that neurobiological factors are not only critical in providing potential risk factors but also provide a promising approach to develop more effective treatment and prevention strategies. The Neurobiological Basis of Suicide discusses the most recent findings in suicide neurobiology. Psychological, psychosocial, and cultural factors are important in determining the risk factors for suicide; however, they offer weak prediction and can be of little clinical use. Interestingly, cognitive characteristics are different among depressed suicidal and depressed nonsuicidal subjects, and could be involved in the development of suicidal behavior. The characterization of the neurobiological basis of suicide is in delineating the risk factors associated with suicide. The Neurobiological Basis of Suicide focuses on how and why these neurobiological factors are crucial in the pathogenic mechanisms of suicidal behavior and how these findings can be transformed into potential therapeutic applications.

Download or read book Combining Aesthetic and Psychological Approaches to TV Series Addiction written by Sébastien Lefait and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-07-26 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book establishes, and then analyses, the interrelation between series and dependence by focusing on two aspects of their connection: the overconsumption of TV series, and the production devices that lead to it. Due to its two-sided nature, the volume brings together specialists from different backgrounds. On the one hand, it involves people working with addiction, such as psychiatrists, psychologists, and social workers, whose analytical tools and statistics are extremely useful in assessing the prevalence of TV series addiction, as well as its consequences, in order to make sense of its mechanics. For similar reasons, the authors also include professionals working with children and teenagers, since youths under 18 are largely affected by addictive tendencies. On the other hand, other contributions here are authored by TV series specialists, producers and scriptwriters, as well as academics in the fields of film and TV series studies, cultural studies, and narratology. Their specific perspectives on the topic help better understand what it is about the construction or reception of TV series that aims to create, maintain, amplify, or, on the contrary, curb their ingrained addictive effects.

Download or read book The Impulsive Client written by William George McCown and published by Amer Psychological Assn. This book was released on 1993 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary purpose of this edited volume is to present various theories regarding the etiology and clinical implications of impulsive behaviors. Although this is not a comprehensive anthology, we hope to depict enough diverse theories within one volume to enable readers from dissimilar theoretical perspectives to obtain otherwise inaccessible information. We believe a cross-fertilization of disparate facets of psychology to be critical in maintaining the vibrancy of our discipline through our next centennial. We hope that this volume can provide at least a small dose of "cross-specialization exposure" for a variety of psychologists and other mental health professionals.
