ABSTRACT
Objective:To analyze the intervention effect of rehabilitation platform-based online psycho-education on patients with bipolar disorder (BD) in remission stage.Methods:In this randomized controlled study, 91 patients with BD in remission stage who attended the community health center in Xicheng District, Beijing from July to August 2021 were randomly divided into a test group (46 cases) and a control group (45 cases) according to a 1∶1 ratio using the random number table. Baseline data were collected from both groups, and the control group received conventional medication and community telephone follow-up, while the test group was given online mental health education in the form of a WeChat subscription number on this basis, including BD mental health education course push (twice a week) and disease self-management (daily recording of mood, sleep, medication, exercise and gratitude diary), and the intervention period was 6 months in both groups. During the intervention, one patient in the test group was admitted to hospital due to exacerbation of mental illness and the trial was terminated. A total of 90 cases were included in the study. The scores of Medication Adherence Rating Scale (MARS), Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD), Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS) and Perceived Devaluation-Discrimination Scale (PDD) were assessed at baseline, after 3 months and 6 months of intervention in both groups, respectively. And the differences in baseline data between the two groups were compared using two independent samples t test and χ2 test, and the repeated-measures ANOVA was used to compare the differences in MARS, HAMD, YMRS, and PDD scores between the two groups before and after the intervention, and to analyze the intervention effects of network mental health education based on the rehabilitation platform on patients in remission stage of BD. Results:After 6 months of intervention, MARS scores in the test group was significantly higher than that in the control group [(8.47±1.75) vs (7.47±1.85)], and was significantly higher than that at baseline (7.36±2.13) and after 3 months of intervention (8.04±1.68) (all P<0.05). YMRS and PDD scores in the test group were significantly lower than those at baseline after 3 and 6 months of intervention [YMRS, 2.0(1.0,4.0),2.0(0,3.0) vs 3.0(1.0,5.5); PDD, (31.18±4.65), (30.13±4.76) vs (32.51±4.51)] (all P<0.05); the differences in YMRS and PDD scores in the control group were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in HAMD scores between the two groups before and after the intervention (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Combining mental health education based on rehabilitation platform with conventional medication and community management can significantly improve the medication compliance of patients with BD in remission stage, and improve their manic symptoms and reduce the stigma of the disease.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the strategies of using psychological crisis intervention in public emergencies.Methods In the early stage,psychological crisis intervention concepts and behavioral responses were formed through literature research and qualitative research methods.Use three rounds of Delphi for expert advice.Three indexes including positive coefficient,authority and coordination were used to test the reliability of expert consultation.Results Overall,it passed 239 out of 269 entries.The first round passed item 210,modified item 18,no consensus item 41;In the second round,8 new entries were added,and 22 entries were deleted through 24 entries.In the third round,there were 5 entries and 16 entries were deleted.The authority coefficient was 0.859,indicating that the experts were very familiar with the items.The coordination coefficient of three rounds of consultations were 0.464,0.696,and 0.407 (P＜0.001)respectively,showing that the coordination degree of experts was excellent,the credibility of feedback was high,and results were highly reliable.Conclusions The strategies of field psychological crisis intervention for public emergencies developed in this study received the consensus by domestic psychological crisis intervention experts,it is will provide a basis for systematic,comprehensive and effective guidance for this work.
ABSTRACT
Objective To understnad the defense mechanisms of patients with borderline personality disorder (BPD) and to explore its relationship with childhood abuses.Methods One hundred and forty-two outpatients with BPD (group A),63 outpatients with other personality disorders (group B) and 20 outpatients without any Axis Ⅱ diagnoses (group C) were enrolled and completed Chinese versions of the Childhood Experience of Care and Abuse Questionnaire (CECA.Q) and the Defensive Style of Questionnaire (DSQ).Multivariate analysis of variance and Pearson correlation analysis were used for data analysis.Results Compared to group B and C,the score of defense mechanisms reported by group A were significantly increased in all eight premature defense mechanisms,such as projection(F =26.5,P ＜ 0.05),passive aggression (F =18.1,P ＜ 0.05),acting out (F =28.3,P ＜ 0.05),complaint (F =16.7,P ＜0.05),fantasy(F =16.3,P ＜ 0.05),splitting (F =28.8,P ＜ 0.05),withdrawal (F =8.3,P ＜ 0.05),somatization(F=7.6,P ＜ 0.05),and part of the middle defense mechanisms,such as omnipotence-devaluation(F =9.2,P ＜ 0.05),isolation(F =4.7,P ＜ 0.05) and identification (F =10.0,P ＜ 0.05).At the same time,the BPD patients got lower scores in the mature defense mechanisms,such as sublimation (F =4.1,P ＜ 0.05) and repression(F =3.9,P ＜ 0.05).Those who experienced physical abuse use more complaint (F =6.9,P ＜ 0.05),denial mechanisms (F =5.2,P ＜ 0.05) and less anticipation one (F =4.6,P ＜ 0.05).Those who experienced sexual abuse use more somatization (F =4.4,P ＜ 0.05) and isolation mechanism (F =3.6,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions BPD patients would like to use more immature and middle defense mechanisms and less mature ones.Emotional,physical and sexual abuse from parents and other adult care takers have a correlation with immature defense mechanisms,which indicates the importance of care about parental rearing patterns and mental health of children.
