Abstract: Stimulant use disorders are highly prevalent with a large burden of disease. Most clinical guidelines recommend psychosocial interventions, but there are no clear hierarchies or indications. Moreover, these interventions have been reported unevenly in the literature. Identifying the most suitable treatment for each patient therefore represents a major challenge. In this review, we describe all psychosocial interventions for stimulant use disorders investigated in randomized controlled trials - including contingency management, cognitive behavioral interventions, community reinforcement approach, 12-step program, meditation-based interventions and physical exercise, supportive expressive psychodynamic therapy, interpersonal psychotherapy, family therapy, motivational interviewing, drug counseling -, and we synthesize the main findings of these studies. Similarities and differences between treatments are highlighted, suggesting that distinct psychosocial interventions can be relevant for certain patients' groups but not for others. Conversely, several interventions can be equally effective in similar clinical contexts, suggesting that a shared element such as therapeutic alliance is key. Finally, combined approaches emerge as a viable option for people with complex needs. Future studies will need to benchmark psychosocial interventions in stimulant use disorders and ascertain markers of response with a view to individualized treatment.

Psychosomatic disorders in developing countries: Current issues and future challenges

Type: Journal Article

Authors: C. R. Chandrashekar, S. B. Math

Year: 2006

Publication Place: United States

Abstract: PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This paper focuses on understanding of the concept, recent advances, and challenges to be faced in the field of psychosomatic disorders by the developing countries. RECENT FINDINGS: Changing health scenario in developing countries has led to imminent epidemic of noncommunicable diseases along with the unmet agenda of controlling infectious diseases. Psychosomatic medicine has a role to play in curtailing the upcoming epidemic. Research studies on psychosomatic disorders from developing countries are very few. Most of the publications are in nonpsychiatric medical journals covering explorative to intervention studies. Traditional, complementary, and alternative medicines such as ayurveda are already playing their role in the area of psychosomatic disorders in developing countries. SUMMARY: The role and responsibility of the psychiatrist is changing from treating major mental disorders to preventing and treating psychosomatic disorders. In this regard, developing countries have to meet various challenges such as development of manpower, training of medical and paramedical staff, funding resources for clinical practice and research, coordinating with complementary and alternative medicines, and networking with policy makers in combating the imminent epidemic.

Psychosomatic medicine in primary care: influence of training

Type: Journal Article

Authors: C. Fazekas, F. Matzer, E. R. Greimel, G. Moser, M. Stelzig, W. Langewitz, B. Loewe, W. Pieringer, E. Jandl-Jager

Year: 2009

Publication Place: Austria

Abstract: BACKGROUND: General practitioners (GPs) are often confronted with patients presenting somatic symptoms presumed to be decisively modulated by psychosocial factors. OBJECTIVES: We aimed to explore GPs' reported clinical routine in dealing with these patients according to the GPs' level of training in psychosomatic medicine. METHODS: A structured postal questionnaire survey was conducted among all Austrian GPs with a standardized training background in psychosomatic medicine (three levels of training; duration between one and six years) as well as in a random national sample of Austrian GPs without such training, resulting in four study subgroups. RESULTS: Respondents estimated that between 20% and 40% of their patients presenting somatic symptoms need psychosocial factors to be addressed. Study subgroups differed significantly concerning their reported diagnostic and therapeutic routine behavior patterns. Some diagnostic approaches such as clarification of lay etiology increased linearly with the level of training. The proportion of patients receiving corresponding treatment in the GP's own practice was also reported to increase with the level of training (no training: 35%, levels one and two: 46%, level three: 54%), although all subgroups estimated that over 20% of patients do not receive any corresponding treatment. CONCLUSIONS: Results point at the clinical relevance of a general training in psychosomatic medicine in primary care. They also suggest specific training effects that need to be substantiated in observational studies.

Psychosomatic medicine is a comprehensive field, not a synonym for consultation liaison psychiatry

Type: Journal Article

Authors: G. A. Fava, C. Belaise, N. Sonino

Year: 2010

Publication Place: United States

Abstract: There is controversy surrounding the term psychosomatic. If it is used as an equivalent of consultation liaison psychiatry, there is little justification for retaining it. Psychosomatic medicine, however, may be defined as a comprehensive interdisciplinary framework for the assessment of psychosocial factors affecting individual vulnerability, course, and outcome of any type of disease; holistic consideration of patient care in clinical practice; and integration of psychological therapies in the prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation of medical disease. Psychosomatic medicine has developed several clinimetric tools for assessing psychosocial variables in the setting of medical disease and has raised the need for specific evaluations in medical assessment. The term psychosomatic medicine today seems to be more timely than ever and provides a home for innovative and integrative thinking at the interface of behavioral and medical sciences.

Abstract: Psychosocial problems appear within a medical context worldwide, and are a major burden to health. Psychosomatic Medicine: An International Primer for the Primary Care Setting takes a uniquely global approach in laying the foundations of biopsychosocial basic care (such as recognizing psychosocial and psychosomatic problems, basic counseling, and collaboration with mental health specialists) and provides relevant information about the most common mental and psychosomatic problems and disorders. The scope of the book is intercultural it addresses global cultures, subcultures living in a single country, and strengthening the care given by physicians working abroad.

Psychotherapy for depression in primary care: a panel survey of general practitioners' opinion and prescribing practice

Type: Journal Article

Authors: H. Verdoux, S. Cortaredona, H. Dumesnil, R. Sebbah, P. Verger

Year: 2014

Publication Place: Germany

Abstract: PURPOSE: Psychotherapy is recommended as first-line treatment in patients presenting with mild-to-moderate depression. Although this disorder is mostly managed in primary care, little is known about General Practitioners' (GPs) practice of prescribing psychotherapy. The objectives were to explore GPs' opinion on psychotherapy for depression, and the personal and professional characteristics associated with reported strategies for prescribing psychological therapy and/or an antidepressant in mild-to-moderate depression. METHODS: A cross-sectional survey was carried out among participants in a panel of randomly selected GPs (2,114/2,496 participated: 84.7%). GPs were interviewed using a standardized questionnaire covering their professional and personal characteristics, their practices and opinions in the area of depression management. A multi-model averaging approach was used to explore the characteristics associated with practice of prescribing psychological therapy in mild-to-moderate depression. RESULTS: Most GPs had a favourable opinion regarding the efficacy of psychotherapy in depression. Slightly more than one out of four reported prescribing psychological therapy alone often/very often in mild-to-moderate depression. These GPs were more likely to be female (OR = 1.56, 95% CI 1.24; 1.97), to have a personal history of psychotherapy (OR = 1.76, 95% CI 1.31; 2.38), no history of depression in someone close (OR = 0.80, 95% CI 0.65; 0.99), and to consider that antidepressants are over-prescribed (OR = 2.02, 95% CI 1.63; 2.49). No association was found with professional characteristics. CONCLUSIONS: GPs' personal experience has a greater impact on psychological therapy prescription than professional characteristics. This finding suggests that educational efforts are required for providing GPs decision-making skills regarding psychological therapy prescription, based upon evidence-based medicine rather than subjective factors.
