Clinically-Oriented, Prescriptive Guide to Diagnosing and Treating
Mood Disorders Depression is very common in chronic medical
illness, hindering recovery, increasing functional impairment,
contributing to the costs of treating disease, and worsening
prognosis. In addition, symptoms of depression are often
indistinguishable from symptoms of co-occurring illnesses. It is
imperative that clinicians acquire a more precise understanding of
how depression and other chronic medical conditions impact each
other, and how the treatments for each may influence the other.
This book describes the epidemiology, etiology, diagnosis, and
treatment of comorbid depression and bipolar disorder with specific
illnesses. It informs physicians about what patients need for
optimum outcomes, and gives practical ideas on communicating with
patients and instilling hope. This wealth of practical information
on treating mood disorders and comorbid physical illness over the
long term and avoiding relapses can be immediately utilized to
enrich patient care. This is the first step-by-step mood disorder
guidebook designed specifically for physician use: Helps physicians
detect, diagnose, and treat depression and bipolar disorders in a
concise, results-oriented way. Also helps physicians understand the
issues and concerns of their patients for more effective and
patient-centered care. Provides a clinically rigorous method for
quickly and accurately linking symptoms to each disorder. Offers
clear, up-to-date information on psychotropic drugs--with
definitive instructions on the use of these antidepressants and
mood stabilizers in the treatment of disorders, including dosage
guidelines. Covers mood disorders as primary illnesses. Focuses
also on how mood disorders affect the diagnosis, treatment, and
course of specific medical illnesses.
