Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les troubles du langage chez l'enfant sont un motif de consultation fréquent, regroupant des situations très diverses. Le développement du langage est la résultante de multiples facteurs (génétiques, neurocognitifs, psychoaffectifs, sociaux...) hautement intriqués entre eux, ce qui rend leur compréhension complexe aux niveaux étiologique et épistémologique. La neuropsychologie cognitive a développé le concept de troubles spécifiques, qui par définition, n'ont pas comme cause un trouble psychopathologique, mais en sont fréquemment accompagné. En pratique, les troubles du langage nécessitent donc une évaluation multidisciplinaire et respectueuse de l'unité du développement de l'enfant. Sous l'impulsion des associations de parents d'enfants présentant des troubles spécifiques, des centres référents pour les troubles du langage et des apprentissages ont été créés à partir de 2001, dont le Centre du Langage de l'Hôpital Avicenne (CDL), individualisé au sein du service de psychopathologie de l'enfant et de l'adolescent. L'objectif de notre étude est d'évaluer l'effet d'un bilan dans le parcours de soin des enfants ainsi que sur les représentations parentales. Les résultats montre tout d'abord les spécificités de la population reçue (N=75) : l'importance du taux d'enfants de migrants (63%) (et de bilinguisme), un niveau socio-économique bas, une fréquence élevée de troubles psychopathologiques (80%) et une fréquence moindre de troubles spécifiques (32%). Les entretiens avec les parents retrouvent globalement une bonne compréhension du diagnostic, et une bonne satisfaction, particulièrement vis-à-vis des explications sur le fonctionnement psychique de leur enfant. Soixante dix pourcent estiment que le bilan a changé leur vision des troubles de leur enfant, le plus souvent d'une façon qui les a rassurés et leur a permis d'avoir une meilleure relation avec leur enfant. Les soins préconisés ont été initiés et perdurent un an après la fin du bilan dans deux tiers des cas. Les soins orthophoniques sont presque toujours en place; les soins psychologiques, individuels ou familiaux, ne le sont pas dans un tiers des cas. Enfin, les facteurs migration et compréhension du diagnostic sont corrélés positivement à la mise en place des soins (à la limite de la significativité). Par contre, les enfants présentant un trouble limite sont moins en soin que les autres, ces situations semblent très sensibles à la dissociation entre lieu d'évaluation et lieu de soin, vécue comme une discontinuité. Malgré ses limites, cette étude a ouvert plusieurs pistes d'évolution pour le CDL, au niveau des évaluations diagnostiques et des modalités de relais avec les soins ultérieurs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le dépistage systématique et précoce (dès l'âge de 4 ans) des troubles du langage oral est indispensable dans la lutte contre l'échec scolaire, l'illettrisme et les conséquences psycho affectives et sociales qui peuvent en découler. - Quarante-huit enfants âgés de 2 à 6 ans consultent au CAMSP [Centre d'action médico-sociale précoce] de Dole pour la première fois de septembre 2005 à août 2006. Les motifs de consultation les plus fréquents sont: les troubles du comportement (24 enfants) et les troubles du langage (17). Les diagnostics, à l'issue du bilan et de la synthèse, sont: troubles du langage (31), troubles psychologiques (11), THADA [troubles d'hyperactivité avec déficit de l'attention] (2). Les troubles du langage se répartissent en : troubles secondaires (19 ou 61 % ) [trouble psychologique (4), dépression (1), autisme (2), dysharmonie évolutive (4), retard mental (4), maladie génétique (2), paralysie cérébrale (1) et carence éducative (1)], troubles spécifiques (8 ou 26%) [retard de langage (6), dysphasie (2)] et troubles mineurs d'articulation et de parole (2 ou 6,5%). - Le médecin généraliste, par sa position de médecin de famille, a un rôle central dans le repérage et le dépistage des troubles du langage. Leur prise en charge entre dans le champ de compétences du médecin généraliste: anamnèse, examen clinique neurologique, test de dépistage ERTL4 [Épreuves de repérage des troubles du langage, utilisables lors du bilan médical de l'enfant de 4 ans], examens complémentaires (audiométrie et bilan orthophonique). - Le réseau langage de Franche-Comté est formé de nombreux partenaires dont le médecin généraliste. Il favorise la formation initiale et continue des professionnels et les échanges multidisciplinaires. De nombreux projets d'extension sont en cours, notamment pour le Jura.

Download or read book Health for all Children written by David M B Hall and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2006-09-07 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since publication of the fourth edition of this highly successful book, there have been a number of Government initiatives, reports and policies on how the health of children can best be protected and promoted. This revised fourth edition incorporates recent material on the National Service Framework, 'Every Child Matters', the public health report 'Choosing Health', and the Children Act. It has also been informed by new research on a variety of topics including Sure Start, obesity, Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and language acquisition. Health for all Children 4/e (revised) continues the themes of previous editions, in particular highlighting the growing evidence that behavioural problems and educational failure are not inevitable, and can be prevented. Thus the role of screening for developmental problems, while not ignored, is set in the context of what can be done to promote language development, reading, and enthusiasm for learning. Changes made to the fourth edition, and continued in this revised edition, include dealing with the health care needs of children of school age as well as pre-school children. It also outlines the needs of special groups of children, including those who are vulnerable or disabled and those living in unusual circumstances. The legislative framework is outlined and hallmarks of good practice described. Promoting children's health is a key focus, with updated information on nutrition and injury prevention, and emphasis on the importance of parent education and support, language, and literacy skills, with a review of behavioural management programmes for parents. It also describes the duties laid on PCTs with regard to education and social services support. This established and successful book continues to be essential reading for all health professionals who work with children, whether in the community or at the receiving end of referrals. It will also provide vital background knowledge for those charged with the responsibility of planning, commissioning and monitoring. This revised fourth edition provides the most up to date evidence in a rapidly changing field.

This book was released on 2005-07-28 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The DSM and ICD mental illness classificatory systems define mood disorder as essentially a single condition varying only by severity; however, there are major problems with this approach. In this book, Gordon Parker and Vijaya Manicavasagar expose the weaknesses in the existing models, and describe a new approach to sub-typing and managing depression based on there being some specific defined manifestations, including melancholia and psychotic depression, as well as versions of the condition highly dependent on life stresses and personality styles.

Download or read book Pediatric Bipolar Disorder written by Robert L. Findling and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2002-10-10 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bipolar disorders were once considered rare in children and adolescents. A growing body of scientific evidence now suggests that they may be more prevalent in this group than previously believed. At the same time, the practitioner faces significant clinical challenges in both the assessment processes and also the implementation of a treatment plan. A paucity of treatment manuals and pharmacological algorithms providing practical guidance makes the task of the clinician even more difficult, despite the fact that more is known about the assessment, neurobiology and treatment of children and adolescents with bipolar disorder than ever before. Written by three distinguished experts, this book conveys to clinicians all the information currently available in this area. They review both the neuroscience and also the integration of rational, practical, pharmacological and psychosocial interventions. Based on what is known, a sound approach to the assessment of these youngsters can be developed. Similarly, available evidence allows practitioners to ground their treatment protocols solidly on scientific knowledge. Concise and authoritative, Pediatric Bipolar Disorders will give the reader a practical approach to both the art and science of providing the best possible clinical care to children and adolescents with the disorder. This book is written primarily for clinical psychiatrists, but will also be of interest to non-specialist doctors and other members of the health care team.

Download or read book Early Intervention for Trauma and Traumatic Loss written by Brett T. Litz and published by Guilford Press. This book was released on 2004-01-01 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This authoritative volume describes the state of the science of early intervention for trauma and traumatic loss across the lifespan and in a variety of contexts. While few would dispute the importance of helping people cope with severe life stressors, important questions remain about how to identify those at risk for chronic problems and which interventions actually facilitate recovery over time. Following a review of current knowledge on the predictors and course of acute stress disorder, PTSD, and traumatic grief, the volume presents a range of early intervention models designed for very young children, older children, and adults. Authors examine the empirical literature and recommend evidence-based clinical strategies whenever possible, while delineating an extensive agenda for future research. Also covered are the lessons learned from early intervention with specific populations: 9/11 survivors, combat veterans, emergency services personnel, survivors of sexual violence, and others.

Download or read book Clinical Manual of Anxiety Disorders written by Dan J. Stein and published by American Psychiatric Pub. This book was released on 2007-05-03 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anxiety disorders are among the most prevalent, persistent, disabling, and costly psychiatric disorders, yet they are often underdiagnosed and undertreated. Fortunately, there have been major advances in understanding and treating these conditions in recent years; this is one of the most exciting areas in modern medicine. This clinical manual has earned its place in the literature as one of just a few volumes that covers all of the major anxiety disorders and presents integrated contributions from both psychopharmacologists and psychotherapists -- all in one compact work written for busy clinicians. Though concepts of anxiety have long enjoyed a central position in philosophical and psychoanalytic theories, empirical research on anxiety disorders has a relatively short history. Here, 16 experts discuss advances in diagnosis, assessment (including relevant rating scales), pharmacotherapy, and psychotherapy. This volume begins by reviewing recent important diagnostic, epidemiological, neurobiological, and treatment findings -- all of which have significant implications for clinicians. Subsequent chapters cover Panic disorder and agoraphobia -- Laboratory studies of fear have significantly advanced our understanding of the neurocircuitry and neurochemistry of panic. Furthermore, panic disorder is now readily treated with both medications and psychotherapy. Specific phobia -- Viewed for many years as mild and even trivial, this common disorder is now recognized for its very real associated distress and impairment. Exposure therapy is the treatment mainstay, though pharmacotherapy should be considered particularly when there is comorbidity. Social phobia (or social anxiety disorder) -- In the past few years, the first FDA-approved medications for this disorder have been made available. Cognitive-behavioral therapy is also effective for the treatment of this underdiagnosed and undertreated condition. Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) -- OCD was the first disorder where it was shown that both specific medications and cognitive-behavioral techniques resulted in normalization of activity in particular brain structures. It is now possible to provide patients with integrated treatment approaches. Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) -- Once viewed as a normal reaction to trauma, PTSD is increasingly understood as a pathological response, characterized by specific psychobiological dysfunctions. Again, there have been exciting advances in the treatment of this disorder, with the release of the first FDA-approved agents for PTSD. Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) -- For a number of years GAD was thought of as a residual disorder occasionally seen in combination with more primary conditions. Nowadays, we know that GAD is an independent condition that is prevalent, persistent, and disabling. Busy residents and psychiatrists in active clinical practice, psychologists, primary care practitioners, and other mental health professionals will find this clinical manual -- with its integrated approach of both pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy -- a valuable tool in their everyday practices.
