This book was released on 2013-10-07 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clinical cases are a key component in modern medical education, assisting the trainee or recertifying clinician to work through unusual cases using best practice techniques. Dermatology is an important discipline in this regard since it is a highly visual subject requiring the reader to describe often very subtle differences in the presentation of patients and define accurately the diagnostic and management criteria to base their clinical decision-making on. This is particularly the case in the field of psychocutaneous disease where scientific advances are shedding new light on the understanding and treatment of long-recognized conditions located at the interface of dermatology and psychiatry. Psychodermatology covers all aspects of how the mind and body interact in relation to the onset and progression of various skin disorders.

Download or read book Pediatric Psychodermatology written by Ruqiya Shama Tareen and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psychodermatology is a relatively new field in evolution and thus, there is a comparative paucity of information in general. However, when it comes to children and adolescents there is a complete vacuum of information as no other book has aimed to specifically address the psychodermatological issues facing this particular population. For assessment, diagnosis, comprehensive treatment of children with psychodermatologic conditions and establishing a relationship between skin and psyche, there is a lack of clear and relevant clinical information about these complex disorders. The complexity of these disorders is related to lack of understanding in genetic, embryonic, physiologic, neuroimmunologic, neurocutaneous, stress-related neuromodulation, and psychosomatic interconnections. This book presents a clinically relevant approach to the management of psychodermatologic issues encountered in normal practice. Various classifications and major categories that are discussed include psychophysiologic disorders, psychiatric conditions with dermatologic manifestations, dermatologic disorders predisposing to psychiatric disorders, systemic diseases with psychodermatological manifestations, and special issues in management of psychocutaneous disorders in children and adolescents.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Skin disease can be more than skin deep Our skin is one of the first things people notice about us. Blemishes, rashes, dry, flaky skin – all these can breed insecurity, even suicidality, even though the basic skin condition is relatively benign. Skin disease can lead to psychiatric disturbance. But symptoms of skin disease can also indicate psychological disturbance. Scratching, scarring, bleeding, rashes. These skin disturbances can be the result of psychiatric disease.

These are challenges that ask dermatologists, psychiatrists, psychologists and other health care specialists to collaborate. Practical Psychodermatology provides a simple, comprehensive, practical and up-to-date guide for the management of patients with psychocutaneous disease. Edited by dermatologists and psychiatrists to ensure it as relevant to both specialties it covers: History and examination Assessment and risk management Psychiatric aspects of dermatological disease Dermatological aspects of psychiatric disease Management and treatment The international and multi-specialty approach of Practical Psychodermatology provides a unique toolkit for dermatologists, psychiatrists, psychologists and other health care specialists needing to care for patients whose suffering is more than skin deep.

Download or read book Psychocutaneous Diseases written by Gianni Angelini and published by Springer. This book was released on 2024-12-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The terminology, classification, diagnosis and treatment of dermatological factitious disorders, falling within the broad scope of self-induced dermatological diseases, are the subject of open debate. The complexity of the topic is also linked to the involvement of different health professions who often refer to different classifications, whereas patients with these conditions need a consistent multidisciplinary approach. The purpose of this work, resulting in decades of field experience and of the joint efforts of both dermatologists and psychiatrists, is to clarify the terminology of these disorders and, above all, to analyze their clinical characteristics in detail, the first and pivotal sign of suspicion and diagnosis. Artificial dermatitis are self-induced diseases caused by various means and for diverse purposes. Illness can be mimicked with unlawful purposes, or to take advantage of professional situations (obtaining extension of illness, recognition of the condition as an occupational disease, reaching a higher class of invalidity). In these cases, the simulators are aware of their own action and its purposes. Conversely, there are cases of self-induced dermatitis dictated by psychiatric problems, such as psychosis, intellectual disability and personality disorders. Intrinsic motivation of such lesions is different: patient intends to draw attention, reacts to difficult environmental situations by involuntary somatization of the skin. Skin artifacts of illicit intent are true "simulations", while the lesions caused unconsciously by subjects with psychological disorders are "pathomimies". In addition to the groups of true simulation and “pathomimia”, another group of self-provoked dermatoses is due to coercive habits (excoriations, tics) in conscious subjects who recognize the urgency of a self-harming action. Psychocutaneous Diseases leaves room to the clinic features and motivations of artifacts, both perpetuated on oneself and on other people ("by proxy" factitious disorders). The topic is completed by the addition of chapters by psychiatric specialists, in order to address pathogenetic problems and therapeutic guidelines, as well as contributions that integrate the approach with medico-legal expertise. This unique work will support diagnosis by dermatologists, but also psychiatrists, psychologists, internists, forensic doctors and general practitioners.
