What Place Does The Real-Relationship Have In The Process Of Therapeutic Character Change?, Patrice Duquette, Md
What Place Does The Real-Relationship Have In The Process Of Therapeutic Character Change?, Patrice Duquette, Md
Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry
The relationship between therapist and patient is an important tool in the process of helping a patient change. There are various elements that make up the total relationship between patient and therapist, each with its own power to exert for and against change. Transference can be one of the most relentless of these elements in maintaining the status quo for ourpatients. To help our patients make significant gains against this relentless pressure is most of our task in psychotherapy. The real-relationship has been considered in the literature since the early 1940's and is described by Greenson as "the realistic and …
Climbing Through The Milwaukee County Civil Commitment Process, Jon A. Lehrmann, Md
Climbing Through The Milwaukee County Civil Commitment Process, Jon A. Lehrmann, Md
Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry
Civil commitment has become a practically unavoidable process for today's practicing psychiatrist. It creates a complicated triangular relationship involving the legal system, the medical system, and the patient.
This article is a first person narrative of a case which helps describe the Wisconsin civil commitment process as it operates in Milwaukee County. It illustrates the frustrations that a psychiatrist (and in this case a first year psychiatry resident) can experience in such a system. Finally, it addresses these problems associated with civil commitment and discusses possible solutions.
Involuntary Psychiatric Hospitalization And Risk Management: The Ethical Considerations, Richard C. Christensen, Md, Ma
Involuntary Psychiatric Hospitalization And Risk Management: The Ethical Considerations, Richard C. Christensen, Md, Ma
Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry
During an era where physicians go to great lengths to limit personal risk and ensure self-protection from lawsuits, psychiatrists may be inclined to err on the side of involuntarily hospitalizing patients who have been briefly evaluated in the emergency room or clinic setting. However, conscientious treatment decisions, particularly those pertaining to involuntary psychiatric hospitalization, need to address at least two fundamental ethical concerns: the patient's best interests and the clinician's motives. This article discusses the moral components involved in clinical decision making and presents a case example which highlights the ethical implications of involuntary psychiatric hospitalizations.
Carbamazepine-Associated Hyponatremia, Mitchell S. Gandelman, Md, Phd, Sandra Dabora, Md, Phd, Rebecca L. Johnson, Md, Michelle B. Riba, Md
Carbamazepine-Associated Hyponatremia, Mitchell S. Gandelman, Md, Phd, Sandra Dabora, Md, Phd, Rebecca L. Johnson, Md, Michelle B. Riba, Md
Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry
Four cases of CBZ-induced or exacerbated hyponatremia are described in middle-aged to elderly females. Two cases are remarkable in that the pretreatment sodium levels demonstrate hyponatremia. A return to prior sodium levels was observed upon the discontinuation of carbamazepine therapy. No definitive conclusions can be drawn from these case reports; however, similarities in the cases can be examined as follows: (1) all four women have medical problems, in particular two patients had pre-existing hyponatremia; (2) all four patients were using concurrent medications; (3) all four women presented psychotic. A literature review examines risk factors, pharmacological mechanism, and the time course …
Polymyalgia Rheumatica Presenting As Depression: The Role Of The History And Physical Examination In Psychiatric Assessment, J.H. Ennis, Msw, Md, J.K. Leclair, Md, Frcp (C), L. Wadas, Bsw, Csw, C. Patterson, Md, Frcp (C)
Polymyalgia Rheumatica Presenting As Depression: The Role Of The History And Physical Examination In Psychiatric Assessment, J.H. Ennis, Msw, Md, J.K. Leclair, Md, Frcp (C), L. Wadas, Bsw, Csw, C. Patterson, Md, Frcp (C)
Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry
Surveys have indicated that physical examination is a diagnostic tool that is infrequently used by psychiatrists. This is an unfortunate state of affairs in light of the act that the bio-psycho-social formulation of health-care problems is integral to the treatment of psychiatric disorders. The situation becomes all the more complex when faced with the high comorbidity of physical and psychiatric illness in the elderly presenting with depression. The physical examination, guided by a detailed history, must be considered an integral part of the assessment of depression in the elderly. A case study of polymyalgia rheumatica presenting as depression is utilized …
Firesetting In Children, Donna V. Mehregany, Md
Firesetting In Children, Donna V. Mehregany, Md
Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry
This article reviews the literature regarding the history, etiology, diagnosis, and treatment of firesetting. A critique of the literature reveals the need to generate a clearer definition of firesetting as well as more stringent criteria for diagnosing firesetting. The standard treatments for firesetting are reviewed. Linkage of childhood firesetting to future adolescent and adult crimes is also examined. Finally, avenues for future research are discussed.
Pharmacologic Advances In The Treatment Of Schizophrenia, Scott A. West, Md
Pharmacologic Advances In The Treatment Of Schizophrenia, Scott A. West, Md
Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry
The treatment of schizophrenia was revolutionized with the introduction of chlorpromaeine in 1952. The effectiveness of chlorpromazine in controlling psychotic symptoms lead to the dopamine Hypothesis of schizophrenia, which revolutionized our conceptualization of this illness. Since that time, numerous typical antipsychotic drugs have been developed for the treatment of schizophrenia. However, the introduction of clozapine in 1990 began a new era in the pharmacologic management of schizophrenia. Clozapine, an atypical antipsychotic drug, is effective in controlling the positive Symptoms of schizophrenia in a large number of otherwise treatment-resistant patients, and also improves the negative symptoms of the illness in marry …
Psychogenic Amnesia: A Case Involving Amobarbital Interview And The News Media, Tracey G. Skale, Md, James Randolph Hillard, Md
Psychogenic Amnesia: A Case Involving Amobarbital Interview And The News Media, Tracey G. Skale, Md, James Randolph Hillard, Md
Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry
A young man was admitted to an urban general hospital psychiatric unit after being brought from a local shopping mall unable to remember his name or any other personal information. He was alert and oriented and demonstrated no cognitive impairment. He agreed to an amobarbital interview and agreed to letting local news media display his picture in hopes that someone would recognize him. The amobarbital interview yielded information allowing identification of the individual, with the help of the news media. News media coverage also led to the discovery that the individual was wanted for a violent crime in another state …

Faculty Advisor's Column, Harvey J. Schwartz, Md
Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry
It has been a pleasure and a privilege to have been the Faculty Advisor for the Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry for the past 10 years. We began this resident written and edited journal in 1983 as a small in-house publication designed to encourage our residents to put their thoughts about patient care into written form. Since then we have grown considerably and now serve as the only national resident journal in medicine. Many people over the years have made this effort possible. I would like to pay special thanks to our generous and supportive sponsors and …

Editor's Column, Mary E. Donovan, Md
Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry
In this edition of The Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry we say good-bye to Harvey J. Schwartz, M.D., who founded it as a resident education project ten years ago and who has been our Faculty Advisor ever since. Under Dr. Schwartz's mentorship the Journal has grown from a departmental vehicle for residents' writings to a national publication in which residents can be proud to have their work presented. Having become a nation-wide resident education project, sponsored in part by the APA, the Journal serves to meet a need for all psychiatry residents: to learn about writing, editing and publishing.
