Book excerpt: Este volumen ofrece al profesional de la salud mental una introducción práctica y completa a la psicoterapia cognitiva aplicada al tratamiento del trastorno bipolar, una enfermedad devastadora que hasta hace poco se ha tratado básicamente con medios somáticos.

Los autores presentan numerosas técnicas para el tratamiento de los estados hipomaníacos y maníacos. También abordan la aplicación de las técnicas tradicionales de la psicoterapia cognitiva para combatir la amenaza del suicidio, tan presente en este trastorno. Reconociendo que el trastorno bipolar afecta a familias enteras, se explican métodos para ayudar a los familiares de los pacientes a colaborar con más eficacia en su tratamiento. E igualmente se aborda el tema, delicado pero muy importante, de la estigmatización y sus efectos en la vida y el tratamiento de las personas afectadas. Se trata de un texto fundamental que ofrece al profesional un conjunto de técnicas y consejos para que pueda aumentar la moral, la autoestima, la esperanza y la constancia de los pacientes por medio de una sólida relación terapéutica.

Download or read book Trastornos bipolares written by Benedicto Crespo-Facorro and published by Elsevier España. This book was released on 2005-11 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Segundo número de la serie de monografías que, sobre las fases tempranas de las enfermedades mentales, dirige el Dr. José Luis Vázquez-Barquero y que en este caso se centra en los trastornos bipolares. Pese a toda la evidencia disponible la instauración del paradigma de la enfermedad mental en sus planes iniciales no se ha generalizado al resto de la patología mental y en lo que aquí nos concierne tampoco a los trastornos bipolares. De ahí la importancia de desarrollar iniciativas, como esta obra, que se dirijan a promover la extensión del paradigma de la enfermedad mental en las fases iniciales de los trastornos bipolares. El trastorno bipolar comienza en edades tempranas de la vida. Así, aproximadamente, dos tercios de los casos tienen su origen antes de los 20 años de edad y normalmente se perciben como depresión en sus fases tempranas siendo los síntomas hipomaníacos difíciles de identificar en niños y adolescentes. La intervención temprana en trastornos bipolares es, o debería ser, un objetivo esencial para los servicios públicos de salud mental ya que es imprescindible para la implementación de adecuadas estrategias terapéuticas que incidirán positivamente en el curso evolutivo del trastorno. Esta monografía cumple un amplio abanico de aspectos del trastorno bipolar y proporciona un excelente punto de partida para conseguir un mejor tratamiento. Se trata del segundo número de la serie de monografías dirigida por el Dr. Vázquez-Barquero sobre las fases tempranas de las enfermedades mentales, destinada a promover, en la psiquiatría en lengua española, el conocimiento sobre este novedoso modelo de aproximación a la enfermedad mental. Esta monografía cumple un amplio abanico de aspectos del trastorno bipolar y proporciona un excelente punto de partida para conseguir un mejor tratamiento. Se revisan diferentes temas de las fases tempranas de los trastornos bipolares: aspectos conceptuales, etiopatogenia, marcadores biológicos y psicológicos de desarrollo de los trastornos bipolares. Cubre el tratamiento y manejo en las fases tempranas y recoge los programas clínicos que se han desarrollado para intervenir sobre estas fases tanto a nivel nacional como internacional.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bipolar Disorder Bipolar disorder is the most complex psychiatric disorder with different types of mood episodes, subtypes, varied course, and significant comorbidity. Not surprisingly, this complexity poses unique challenges to clinicians for optimal management of those with bipolar disorder. There has been an explosion of research into the causes and treatment of this condition over the past two decades. It is a daunting task for a practising clinician to make sense of this research and to remain up to date with progress in the understanding of the neurobiology and treatment of bipolar disorder. This book synthesizes and translates the vast array of research knowledge into information that is both relevant and meaningful for a clinician. The book provides a comprehensive, yet focused, reference work on bipolar disorder for both trainees and practising psychiatrists. The two editors are leaders in the field who have published extensively on bipolar disorder. They have assembled a team of experts from around the world: in many instances, chapters are co-authored by people from different continents, bringing a truly international perspective to this important topic. The book covers the basic science of the pathology underlying bipolar disorder but addresses the clinical aspects of the disease throughout. The book comprises four sections: Descriptive Aspects–issues ranging from how the concept of bipolar disorder has evolved over the years to new information about neurocognitive impairment, creativity and economic productivity, and to discussion of the deliberations of the DSM-V committee on changes in diagnostic categories and criteria. Biological Aspects–the contribution of genes to this disorder, changes in circadian rhythms, what we know about brain changes and the role of oxidative stress. Management–all the latest information about pharmacological and other somatic treatments plus psychological therapies for the optimal management of this condition. Special Populations–detailed descriptions of bipolar disorder in women, children and the elderly. If you want to provide state-of-the-art care to your bipolar patients, be sure to consult this authoritative reference.

Download or read book Bipolar Disorder in Youth written by Stephen M. Strakowski and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bipolar disorders affect up to 3% of the world's population and are the 6th leading cause of disability worldwide. The estimated annual costs of bipolar disorder approach $50 billion in the United States, and the associated societal and personal suffering is immeasurable. Bipolar disorder is a lifelong illness that typically begins in mid-adolescence, thereby disrupting healthy developmental processes. It is also a progressive illness, making early intervention even more critical. As the disorder presents differently in youth as it does in adults, considerable controversy exists around the diagnosis in young people. The neurobiological factors leading to the onset of bipolar disorder reflect abnormalities in adolescent brain development. Bipolar disorder is strongly heritable and therefore, these developmental abnormalities likely represent the culmination of processes that precede the expression of symptoms. Current studies of children who are at risk for bipolar disorder are identifying these processes. Again, controversy exists about how to move these neuroscience gains forward to help affected individuals and, particularly to manage children at risk to delay or prevent the onset or progression of bipolar disorder. With these considerations in mind, Bipolar Disorder in Youth provides a timely, focused review of the diagnosis, treatment, and neurobiology of bipolar disorder in youth. It addresses current controversies and resolves those in which evidence is available. The book is organized into three sections based on these topics to provide comprehensive discussions to aid clinicians managing these individuals in their practices, as well as scientists trying to advance the field. The three editors are widely recognized experts in bipolar disorder, and the authors of each chapter represent international experts in the respective topics. Consequently, this book is the most comprehensive volume available discussing this important population and is a 'must' for the libraries of clinicians and scientists working with bipolar children and adolescents.
