    Co-Authors: Kuan-han Lin, Judith Shu-chu Shiao, Shih-cheng Liao, Chun-ya Kuo, Yue Leon Guo, Nai-wen Guo
    Abstract:

    Objectives This study aimed to determine the rates of psychological symptoms among those with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and with non-TBI at 3 months and 12 months after occupational injury and to examine the change in psychological status over time. Method Our study candidates were injured workers in Taiwan who were hospitalised for 3 days or longer and received hospitalisation benefits from the Labour Insurance. A self-reported questionnaire including Brief Symptom Rating Scale (BSRS-50) and Post-traumatic Symptom Checklist (PTSC) was sent to workers at 3 months and 12 months. Results Among 853 injured workers who completed the questionnaire at 3 and 12 months, regarding to the severity of BSRS score, 7.8% of those with TBI had recovered at 12 months, comparing with 8.1% in those with non-TBI. On the other hand, approximately11.6% of those with TBI had recovered from post-traumatic stress symptoms at 12 months, comparing with 9.7% among those with non-TBI. Injured workers with TBI had lower rate of recovery from psychological symptoms, comparing with non-TBI. Conclusions A significant proportion of victims with TBI and non-TBI suffered psychological symptoms after injury. The identification and treatment of psychological symptoms are important for optimal adaptation after traumatic injury.

  • Intervention to improve level of overall functioning and Mental Condition of adolescents at high risk of developing first-episode psychosis in Finland
    Early intervention in psychiatry, 2009
    Co-Authors: Niklas Granö, Marjaana Karjalainen, Jukka Anto, Arja Itkonen, Virve Edlund, Mikko Roine
    Abstract:

    Aim: Being at high risk of developing psychosis has been suggested to be a result of a combination of acute life stressors and trait-like vulnerability to psychosis. Reducing levels of stress could support overall functioning and Mental Condition in those at risk. Methods: The Jorvi Early Psychosis Recognition and Intervention (JERI) project at Helsinki University Central Hospital, Jorvi Hospital, Finland, is an early intervention team for adolescents at risk of developing first-episode psychosis. The project is based on the idea of multiprofessional, community, home, family and network-oriented, stress-reducing, overall functioning-supporting, low-threshold care. The JERI team meets multiprofessionally with adolescents in their natural surroundings, for example, at school or at home, together with their parents, network and community co-worker, who has originally contacted the JERI team because of unclear Mental health problems. Subjects were assessed with the PROD-prodromal screen to identify those at risk of developing first-episode psychosis. Results: Statistically significant difference between baseline and follow-up measures was found in at risk subjects (n = 28) in scales of overall functioning (P = 0.000), depression (P = 0.001), anxiety (P = 0.001), quality of life (QOL) and pre-psychotic symptoms. Conclusions: JERI-type intervention may improve level of overall functioning and support Mental Condition in adolescents at risk of developing first-episode psychosis, even though further study with larger numbers of subjects, with a control group and with a longer follow-up time, is needed.
