Supreme Court Lets Health Law Largely Stand

via NYT > Health by By JOHN H. CUSHMAN Jr. on 6/28/12
The Supreme Court on Thursday largely let stand President Obama’s health care overhaul, in a striking victory for the president and Congressional Democrats, with the chief justice, John G. Roberts Jr., affirming the central legislative pillar of Mr. Obama’s term.


The case is seen as the most significant before the court since the Bush v. Gore ruling, which decided the 2000 presidential election.
In addition to its political reverberations, the decision allows sweeping policy changes affecting one of the largest and fastest-growing sectors of the economy, touching nearly everyone from the cradle to the grave.

Supreme Court Backs Much of Controversial Health Reform Law

Health Care Reform Expected to Be Major Topic at AMA Meeting

via Psychiatric News Alert by noreply@blogger.com (Psychiatric News Alert) on 6/15/12

The AMA's 2012 Annual Meeting begins this weekend in Chicago, presided over by psychiatrist Jeremy Lazarus, M.D., only the second psychiatrist to be president of the AMA. (The first psychiatrist was Rock Slyester, M.D., who was installed as the 93rd president of the AMA on May 16, 1939.)

Health care reform is sure to be a prominent topic at this year's meeting, especially as the Supreme Court's ruling on the constitutionality of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is expected any day now and may well be announced while the House is in session.

Psychiatry has grown to have enormous influence in the House of Delegates. At last year’s meeting, Lazarus was elected president, and psychiatrist Patrice Harris, M.D., was elected to the AMA Board of Trustees. Additionally, former APA President and Assembly Speaker John McIntyre, M.D., won election to a second term on the AMA's influential Council on Medical Service. And Stuart Gitlow, M.D., Ph.D., won reelection to the Council on Science and Public Health.

Look to Psychiatric News for coverage of this year’s meeting. For more information about psychiatry’s influence at the AMA, see Psychiatric News here.

Inmates File Suit Over Lack of Psychiatric Care

via Psychiatric News Alert by noreply@blogger.com (Psychiatric News Alert) on 6/26/12

Several federal prisoners with serious mental illness have filed a class-action lawsuit against the Federal Bureau of Prisons charging that counter to regulations, they have been held in one of the country's "supermax" prisons and have not been provided with needed psychiatric care, including psychotropic medications. Four of the prisoners, according to a June 24 Washington Post report, were transferred to the maximum security prison in Florence, Colo., after the District of Columbia's prison in Lorton, Va., was shuttered in 2001. So-called supermax prisons are designed for extreme levels of security to house prisoners considered security threats or who have committed violent crimes while in other prisons. They are usually held in isolation cells and only have an hour or often less for exercise or other activities per day.

Edward Aro, one of the lawyers who filed the suit along with the inmates, is quoted as saying that the Bureau of Prisons "turns a blind eye to the needs of the mentally ill at [the Colorado prison] and to the deplorable conditions of confinement that are inhumane to these prisoner." The Bureau of Prisons declined to comment on the suit, but issued a statement saying it does not send mentally ill prisoners to the supermax facility. However, the Post cited, for example, the case of one of the plaintiffs, a convicted murderer, who was diagnosed with schizophrenia and alleges that he has not received medication for the disorder in his 11 years at the Colorado prison. "Instead, he has access to therapy classes on television and anger-management pamphlets."

Court Rules on Life Sentences for Juveniles

via Psychiatric News Alert by noreply@blogger.com (Psychiatric News Alert) on 6/26/12

Sentencing juveniles to prison terms of life without the possibility of parole, even for a crime a serious as homicide, amounts to cruel and unusual punishment and thus is unconstitutional, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled yesterday. The 5-4 decision, in which Justice Anthony Kennedy sided with the Court's liberal justices, emphasized the difference between the brains and thus the decision-making capacity of youngsters and those of adults. The decision reflected points made by the American Psychiatric Association and other mental health organizations in an amicus curiae brief submitted to the Court in the two cases at issue, both of which involve murders committed by youth who were age 14 at the time of the crimes. The amicus brief emphasized that adolescents' brains are still developing and that as a result, the immaturity, vulnerability, and changeability characterizing adolescent development should be considered when sentencing juveniles of murder. In previous decisions, the Court had ruled unconstitutional imposition of the death penalty on felons who were under age 18 at the time of the offense and life sentences without possibility of parole for juveniles convicted on crimes other than homicide.

Writing for the majority in yesterday's decision, Justice Elena Kagan acknowledged the research on adolescent development, saying that "Our decisions rested not only on common sense...but on science and social science as well." Read more about this case in Psychiatric News here, and APA's position statement on mandatory sentencing of juveniles here.

[Editorial] Suicide prevention: steps to be taken

via The Lancet by The Lancet on 6/22/12
Suicide is a devastating event for individuals, families, and communities. People who experience such a loss, the wider public, and health professionals, often struggle to understand this complex behaviour, which remains taboo in many cultures. In today's Lancet, we publish a three-part Series to illuminate some of the issues around the causes of suicide, the treatments for suicidal ideation and self-harm, and importantly, the prevention of suicide.

BOOK REVIEW

Practical Guide to Correctional Mental Health and the Law

Reviewed by Robert L. Trestman, PhD, MD |June 28, 2012
by Fred Cohen (With James L. Knoll IV, Terry A. Kupers, and Jeffrey L. Metzner); Kingston, NJ: Civic Research Institute; 2011 • 788 pages • $149.50 (hardcover)
Dr Trestman is Professor of Medicine, Psychiatry, and Nursing, and Executive Director of Correctional Managed Health Care at the University of Connecticut Health Center in Farmington.


If you were a psychiatrist in the 1950s, interested in providing mental health care to the most disadvantaged population with the most extreme forms of psychopathology, you would perhaps have chosen to work in a psychiatric hospital. Today, the career choice is in correctional mental health, and Practical Guide to Correctional Mental Health and the Law is recommended reading for those preparing for, or who have recently embarked on, this career. The book will almost certainly help readers understand the legal framework and the pragmatic characteristics of the demanding environment of a correctional facility.
The law informs mental health care in correctional settings in unique and challenging ways. This is the only population in the country with a constitutionally recognized right to health care—both general medicine and mental health—derived from the 8th and 14th Amendments.
The book reflects the pervasive nature of legal issues in mental health care in correctional settings. In many ways, it articulates what is often assumed or ignored in the health care community. Issues of paternalism, the right to treatment, confidentiality, and informed consent become far more central. Conditions of confinement are not a consideration for most clinicians, but these are routinely a concern in correctional settings. Cohen and colleagues bring these issues to life in a very readable, crisp, and engaging fashion.
Presented in 18 chapters, the 1-volume book is a convenient reworking and condensation of the original 2008 version. The book is clearly designed for function and ease of use; there is a detailed Table of Contents (12 pages) and an excellent Table of Cases (18 pages). The first chapter provides a comprehensive overview and a useful introduction to the legal framework of correctional mental health care and care delivery. My only caveat would be the relative prominence that is given to the Bureau of Justice Statistics report from 2006,1 with its flawed focus on symptoms of mental illness (versus prevalence rates of actual mental illness).
Topics specific to corrections are well described. Conditions of confinement, issues of safety and security, and the notions of dual agency of the clinician are presented within a proper context and with pragmatic guidance.
A critical topic extensively discussed is suicide risk management. While this is an intrinsic part of psychiatry in general, it looms even larger in correctional mental health care for a variety of reasons. First, the suicide rate in jail settings is elevated far above that in community settings. Acute anxiety, emotional distress, and detoxification challenges contribute to this elevated rate.
Second, virtually every suicide that occurs in a correctional facility results in a lawsuit. Understanding the context of care and recognizing the key factors that underlie suicide risk management are fundamental to correctional psychiatry. This text lays out the logic, the process, and the key components in a readable and very comprehensible way. The legal precedents can easily be followed.
This is not a dry legal text: consideration of the issues and concern for patient care are reflected in these pages. Detailed, thoughtful descriptions throughout a Practical Guide to Correctional Mental Health and the Law provide context and make this reference a realistic and practical resource. Readers will undoubtedly find what they are looking for, and they will do so quite expeditiously.

Alcohol use disorders and the course of depressive and anxiety disorders [PAPERS]

via The British Journal of Psychiatry current issue by Boschloo, L., Vogelzangs, N., van den Brink, W., Smit, J. H., Veltman, D. J., Beekman, A. T. F., Penninx, B. W. J. H. on 6/1/12
Background
Inconsistent findings have been reported on the role of comorbid alcohol use disorders as risk factors for a persistent course of depressive and anxiety disorders.
Aims
To determine whether the course of depressive and/or anxiety disorders is conditional on the type (abuse or dependence) or severity of comorbid alcohol use disorders.
Method
In a large sample of participants with current depression and/or anxiety (n = 1369) we examined whether the presence and severity of DSM-IV alcohol abuse or alcohol dependence predicted the 2-year course of depressive and/or anxiety disorders.
Results
The persistence of depressive and/or anxiety disorders at the 2-year follow-up was significantly higher in those with remitted or current alcohol dependence (persistence 62% and 67% respectively), but not in those with remitted or current alcohol abuse (persistence 51% and 46% respectively), compared with no lifetime alcohol use disorder (persistence 53%). Severe (meeting six or seven diagnostic criteria) but not moderate (meeting three to five criteria) current dependence was a significant predictor as 95% of those in the former group still had a depressive and/or anxiety disorder at follow-up. This association remained significant after adjustment for severity of depression and anxiety, psychosocial factors and treatment factors.
Conclusions
Alcohol dependence, especially severe current dependence, is a risk factor for an unfavourable course of depressive and/or anxiety disorders, whereas alcohol abuse is not.

Serving Those Who Served

via NIMH | Director’s Blog by Thomas Insel on 6/5/12
Director’s Blog
NIMH was established nearly 65 years ago to help the nation address the mental health issues of veterans after World War II. Several wars later, we are still committed to helping those who have served, but today the problems are different. At the One Mind for Research meeting last week at UCLA, the differences were clear.
Fewer than one percent of Americans have served in Iraq or Afghanistan – 2.7 million men and women over this past decade. Most were under 25, many had never traveled before, and all were volunteers. Over 5,000 died in combat. For many more, war has meant so called “invisible wounds”: the improvement in body armor has protected limbs and lives, but not brains and minds. Since the beginning of these wars in 2003, there have been at least 126,000 cases of traumatic brain injury and 70,000 cases of PTSD. At the One Mind meeting, Patrick Kennedy, stressing the urgency of these injuries, called these soldiers “medical prisoners of war.”
Today more soldiers are dying from suicide than combat. Suicides have traditionally been lower in the Army than in age and gender matched civilians. In 2004 the suicide rate in the U.S. Army began to climb, surpassing the civilian rate in 2008, and when combined with deaths from high-risk behavior, surpassing the mortality from combat in 2009. The suicide rate has continued to increase, with 164 deaths among active duty soldiers in 2011. Since 2009, NIMH has been collaborating with the Army to understand the drivers for this increasing rate of suicide and rapidly provide interventions to reduce mortality. This Army Study To Assess Risk and Resilience in Servicemembers (Army STARRS) is our largest single project at NIMH. It is an unprecedented effort to understand and modify the factors driving the suicide rate.
So far, 65,000 soldiers have volunteered for Army STARRS, on target to reach 100,000 soldiers by the end of this year. The study includes psychological and cognitive assessments, biosamples, and a vast range of administrative data. Analyses of over 500 suicide deaths have already taught us that the problem is complex: no single factor has emerged as a consistent predictor, and many apparently likely factors appear less important than originally thought. For instance, many of these suicides preceded deployment; and some groups, identified by administrative data, are at much higher risk. Our immediate goal is to provide the Army a “risk calculator”, a set of factors that will identify the highest risk soldiers. By intervening with those at highest risk, we can save lives.
This Memorial Day, 1.4 million men and women are serving in the Armed Forces. For those who have served in the past, as well as those who currently serve, we at NIMH are committed to supporting the best science for prevention and treatment – that’s our commitment to you to repay your commitment to us.

Moffitt, a behavioral scientist at Duke University, said. “Today the most compelling modern theories of crime and violence weave social and biological themes together.”

American Psychiatry At The Crossroads

American Psychiatry At The Crossroads
"Empirical explanation and treatment repeatedly fail for psychiatric diagnoses. Diagnosis is mired in conceptual confusion that is illuminated by Ludwig Wittgenstein's later critique of philosophy (Philosophical Investigations). A diagnosis is a sort of concept that cannot be located in or explained by a mental process. Conclusion: A diagnosis is an exercise in language and its usage changes according to the context and the needs it addresses." Image: Freud and Jung.
