Going beyond a conflict of approaches in psychiatric care: the perks of interdisciplinary research
2021
International audience; Our research studied the interactions between mental health care (MHC) professionals and users in French public psychiatry, focusing on the “tools” which professionals use in their interactions with users. We draw a typology of four main "therapeutic styles" in relation to tool use;1- Absence of identifiable tools. Interaction is personalized and improvised. 2- Use of rituals and habits. 3- Use of methods that have otherwise been written and formalized.4- Use of tools, be they written or computerized, protocols guiding the interactions, or strictly standardized tools.The psychologist involved in the research (HH) intends to show how the practice of interdisciplinary …

Effects of a structured educational intervention in moderate-to-severe elderly asthmatic subjects.
2019
Background: Adherence to inhaled drugs is linked to patients’ satisfaction with their device, and an incorrect use can negatively affect the outcomes of asthma treatment. We speculated that this is particularly true in elderly asthmatic subjects. Aim: We performed a national pre-post interventional multicentre study, enrolling moderate-to-severe asthmatic subjects aged ≥65 years treated with fixed inhaled combination drugs by dry powder inhaler (DPI) or pressurized metered dose inhaler (pMDI). Adherence and critical errors were evaluated by means of validated questionnaires at first visit (V1) and after 3–6 months (V2). At V1, subjects underwent intensive training on the correct use of the…

Abstract The novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is a truly global public health crisis with substantive human, social, and economic costs. The pandemic and the associated preventive ‘lockdown’ measures have also given rise to a parallel mental health crisis, with elevated levels of chronic stress observed in the general population.

Development of efficacious means to assist individuals in effectively managing their during the pandemic and beyond is an impera…
Clinical utility of cognitive-behavioural treatment for panic disorder. results obtained in different settings: a research centre and a public mental…
2002
Cognitive-Behavioural programmes have become the treatment of choice for Panic Disorder (PD). However, although its effectiveness has been widely demonstrated, there are still some limitations regarding the possibility of offering this type of treatment to all panic sufferers. Some researchers are studying ways to make these programmes more available. This study deals with the application and testing of treatment programmes for PD in sites where patients usually look for help for their psychological problems, i.e. mental health care centres. Our work follows a strategy of benchmarking, and the results obtained after applying the treatment in habitual clinical contexts are compared with the …
Gender and Age Group Differences in Stereotypes about Mental Health Care Providers
2013
Mental health care providers play a significant role in the prevention of mental health problems and promotion of well-being. The aim of the study was to explore gender and age group differences in stereotypes about helping professionals in the mental health care field. The data were derived from 338 Latvian-speaking adults aged 18 to 87. They rated stereotypic characteristics of five typical helping professionals (a family doctor, a psychologist, a psychiatrist, a clergyman, and an astrologer) on a seven-point Likert-type scale. The stereotype content model was used to measure warmth and competence stereotypes (Fiske, Xu, Cuddy, & Glick, 1999). Gender differences show that women rate a typ…

Viajes y redes profesionales en los orígenes del alienismo español
2016
Resumen Este artículo examina la importancia de los viajes y las redes profesionales en los orígenes de la psiquiatría en España. Tras una revisión de los antecedentes ilustrados y los periplos terapéuticos y profesionales en el primer alienismo, se describen los desplazamientos a instituciones psiquiátricas extranjeras, durante el segundo tercio del siglo XIX, de un grupo de médicos exiliados, comisionados y pioneros españoles. Posteriormente, con su afianzamiento social, institucional y profesional, algunas figuras de la medicina mental española estrecharon sus vínculos y su proyección internacional organizando o asistiendo a congresos y otros eventos científicos. Su caso ilustra así el i…
