NAME DRUGS THAT ACT AS ANTIDOTES FOR NMS SYNDROME SEROTONIN SYNDROME EXTRAPYRAMIDAL S.E.

NMS ((stiff muscles))ANTIDOTE = DANTROLENE VS SEROTONIN SYNDROME ANTIDOTE ((mycolonic jerks)) = CYPROHEPTIDATE ================= ANTIPSYCH DRUGS -->CAUSE= EXTRAPYRAMIDAL S.E. = ANTIDOTE - ANY ANTICHOLINERGIC DRUG = DIPHENHYDRAMINE OR BENZTROPINE --> FOR PARKINSON LIKE sx, ---->ACUTE DYSTONIA PROPNOLOL--> FOR AKANITHISIA

WHAT CAN NMS LEAD TO

NMS= RIGID/ STIFF MUSCLES FEVER AUTONOMIC INSTABILITY COMPLICATIONS = MUSCLE BREAKDOWN= RHABDOMYOLYSIS= HIGH CPK ===>> KIDNEY FAILURE

DIAGNOSE? WHATS IT MOST DANGEROUS COMPLICATION PT TAKING HALOPERIDOL= 1ST GEN/ TYPICAL ANTI PSYCH NOW HE HAS STIFF EXTREMITIES (((VS. MYCOLONIC JERKS IN SEROTONIN SYNDROME)) he is diaphoretic with a temperature of 105.8°F==IN SEROTONIN SYNDROME ALSO, has a heart rate of 130 beats/min and a respiratory rate of 20 breaths/min =============================================== WHAT DRUG CAUSES THIS S.E. = RETINAL PIGMENTATION

NMS= VERY COMMON WITH ANTIPSYCH DRUGS, ESPECIALLY 1ST GEN = STIFF EXTREMITIES + FEVER (((VS. MYCOLONIC JERKS IN SEROTONIN SYNDROME)) ======= NMS MOST SERIOUS S.E. = RHABDOMYLOYSIS ============= RETINAL PIGMENTATION===> possible blindness S.E. OF = THIORIDAZINE

ARE THERE ANY MEDS TO TX BODY DYSMORPHIC DISORDER WHAT IS TX?

NO DRUGS EXIST TO TX BODY DYSMORPHIC DISORDER TX== THERAPY

MOM BRINGS IN KID PT MOM SAYS THEY WERE LATE TO APP BECAUSE KID REFUSED TO GET IN CAR KID ALSO ARGUES WITH MOM ABOUT BUYING TOYS he does not have a history of aggression toward peers or property and has not had any legal problems

NO LEGAL PROBLEMS NO AGREESION TOWARDS PEERS/PROPERTY = R/U CONDUCT DISORDER ======== KID HAS HX OF NOT LISTENING TO MOM'S ORDERS = OPPOSITIONAL DEFIANT DISORDER = Children with ODD are often angry, argumentative, and easily annoyed by others

FAMILY FORCIBLY BRING ALCOHOLIC PT TO ED SO HE CAN GET ADMITTED HE DOES NOT HAVE ANY CURRENT SX WHAT SHOULD BE GIVEN TO HIM IN ED

NO SX= NO NEED TO GIVE HIM BZs FOR ALCOHOL WITHDRAWL SINCE WE KNOW HE IS AN ALCOHOLIC =start with giving him THIAMINE>> BEFORE giving him GLUCOSE If a thiamine-deficient patient is given food (glucose), he or she can develop Wernicke encephalopathy (a delirium ---------------- THEN AFTER HE IS ADMITTED, SINCE HE WONT BE GETTING ANY ALCOHOL IN HOSPITAL EXPECT HIM TO HAVE SX OF ALCOHOL WITHDRAWL =for this give him LORAZEPAM= BZ

DOES SCHIZOPHRENIA ONLY HAVE HALLUCINATIONS

NO! HALLUCINATIONS =VISUAL- seeing shit not there =AUDITORY= hearing voices not there DELUSIONS== J-PEG ==someone is following pt/poisoning pt, etc DISORGANIZED BEHAVIOR

IS USE OF IBUPROFEN SAFE WITH USE OF = LITHIUM ========= NO MATTER WHAT KIND OF PSYCHOTIC SX A PT MAY BE HAVING WHAT IS 1ST TEST= DOC SHOULD ORDER

NO! IBUPROFEN= CAUSE INCREASE IN LEVELS OF LITHIUM INSTEAD SWITCH IBUPROFEN===>> ASPIRIN== SAFER NSAID ============ PT COMES IN WITH "ANY" PSYCH SX = ORDER TOXICOLOGY REPORT = WANNA R/U SX ARE NOT DUE TO SUBS. ABUSE THIS IS ESPECIALLY TRUE FOR WHEN PT= YOUNG ADOLESCENT

PT ON MAOI FOR MDD GETS PREGNANT SHOULD SHE STAY ON MAOI ============ Which of the following over-the-counter medications is contraindicated with MAOI treatment? a. Pseudoephedrine b. Acetaminophen c. Diphenhydramine d. Ibuprofen e. Guaifenesin

NO! MAOI= CONTRAIND IN PREG==> CAN RAISE BP SWTICH TO SSRI ========== a. Pseudoephedrine = sympathomimetic agents such as pseudoephedrine can cause severe hypertensive crises SO BAD IDEA TO GIVE 2 DRUGS TOGETHER THAT CAN BOTH CAUSE HYPERTENSIVE CRISIS

17 YEAR OLD BOY WHO HAS DEPRESSION TELLS YOU HE PLANNS TO USE A ROPE TO HANG HIMSLEF SHOULD DOC PROTECT HIS CONFENDITIALITY

NO! SINCE HE HAS A CONCRETE PLAN ON HOW TO COMMIT SUCIDE = DENY CONFENDITIALITY TELL PARENTS MOST IMPORTANTLY = FORCIBLY HOSPITALIZE PT IMMEDIATELY

NO! ((double check but pretty sure)) usualy cause mood sx= depression like, anxiety etc

SCHIZOAFFECTIVE DISORDER IS THIS ONLY THE CASE WHEN PT HAS SCHIZOPHRENIA + MDD?

NO!! EVEN WITH SCHIZOPHRENIA + MANIA = SCHIZOAFFECTIVE! ==================

WHAT KIND OF PUPIL CHANGES OCCUR WITH ALCOHOL OVERDOSE

NONE! BOTH ALCOHOL AND PCP = NYSTAGMUS

5 YEAR OLD GIRL IS HEARD TALKING TO "SANDY"--- IMAGINERY FRIEND OTHERWISE, SHE HAS REACHED ALL MILESTONES, DOING WELL IN SCHOOL, NO OTHER SX/PROBLEMS

NORMAL BEHAVIOR! FOR A 5 YR OLD TO BE TALKIN TO IMAGIN. FRIEND = NOT AUDITORY HALLUCINATIONS SEEN IN SCHIZOPHRENIA!! Sandy does not represent an auditory hallucination (schizophrenia - I say this purposefully for the test - NEVER has an onset so young), but rather a healthy imagination in a growing child

SUMMARIZE WHAT IS NORMAL TO HAVE IN BREAVEMENT ====== NOT NORMAL TO HAVE SUCIDAL THOUGHTS marked functional impairment.

NORMAL FOR UPTO = 2 MONTHS POST DEATH ==but need to check this --may be diff. now (1) guilt about things other than actions taken or not taken by the survivor at the time of the loved one's death, (2) thoughts of death other than the survivor feeling he/she would be better off dead without the loved one, (3) a morbid preoccupation with worthlessness , (4) marked psychomotor retardation, (5) marked and prolonged functional impairment, and (6) hallucinations other than the survivor believing he/she can hear the voice or see the loved one.

IN A KID WHAT AGE THE FOLL. OCCUR STRANGER ANXIETY VS SEPERATION ANXIETY ======================= KID WITH SCHIZOPHRENIA WHAT KIND OF FAMILY IS THIS KID LIKELY TO HAVE? WHAT MEANS== POOR OUTCOME==FOR SCHIZOPHRENIA IN A KID

NORMAL TO HAVE STRANGER ANXIETY IN = ALMOST A YR OLD== 7-8 MONTH OLD CHILD = EX---9-month-old girl = Previously very friendly with everyone, BUT NOW- she now bursts into tears when she is approached by an unfamiliar adult. VS SEPERATION ANXIETY = IN A SCHOOL AGE KID =============== SCHIZOPRENIA IN A KID = MOST LIKELY TO HAVE A PARENT WITH PSYCHOTIC---CAN BE ANY!!---DISORDER ASWELL ===================== POOR OUTCOME FOR SCHIZO PTS = AGE OF ONSET OF SCHIZO SX BEFORE AGE < 10 YR ==== GOOD OUTCOME FOR SCHIZOPHRENIC PT = Good premorbid functioning= CAN HOLD A JOB ETC later age at presentation, female gender, acute and rapid onset of symptoms (as opposed to insidious onset), and the presence of mood symptoms

pt believes her THOUGHTS RESPONSIBLE FOR HER FRIEND'S MISCARRIAGE

NOT IDEAS OF REFRENCE! = other individuals (eg, government, entertainers, the media) are referring to== "REFRENCING" or talking about the person Experiencing the delusion. ====================================== THIS IS MAGICAL THINKING = e belief that one's thoughts can control outside events. = another example of MAGICAL THINKING = PATIENT IS convinced that she has caused a recent earthquake because she was bored and wishing for something exciting to occur

MOM TELLS DOC SHE DOESNT WANT HER KID TO BE TAKING ANY STIMULANTS FOR TX OF HIS ADHD WHAT CAN DOC GIVE HIM

NOT ADERALL= THIS IS A STIMULANT == GIVE Atomoxetine =is a nonstimulant, norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor ========= SUSPECT ADHD IN THIS KID = boy who frequently blurts out comments in class =without waiting his turn to be called on.

7 MONTHS AFTER BREAKING UP WITH BF/ MOVING TO COLLEGE PT IS EXP DECREASE SLEEP LOST WEIGHT LOST INTERESTIN ACTIVITIES DIAGNOSE?

NOT ADJUSTMENT DISORDER!!! = never has such obvious sx of MANIA ================ THESE SX ARE PRETTY SEVERE =AKA OBVIOUS FOR overt MANIA = pressured speech, grandiose delusions, and history of excessive spending DIAG= BIPOLAR 1= MANIA ((bipolar 1 usually has MANIA + some sx of depression)) ((rem bipolar 2= hypomania + MDD)) --> this pt def. has mania not hypomania

1 YEAR AFTER HER HUSBAND DIED PT HAS== AMNESIA SHE ALSO HAS LOSS OF FUNCTION = DOESNT KEEP HER HOUSE CLEAN ANYMORE DOESNT ENGAGE IN SOCIAL LIFE

NOT ALZIHEMER= THIS IS MORE CHRONIC!! ============ THIS IS PSEUDO=DEMENTIA = ALZIEHERM LIKE SX IN A PT WHO IS DEPRESSED==since her husband died a year ago == Pseudodementia is actually depression masking itself as dementia. She has a reason to be depressed (loss of her husband) and is exhibiting signs of dementia (forgetfulness, neglect ============ tx OF PSEUDO=DEMENTIA = ANTI-DEPRESSANTS

TX FOR "B"ORDERLINE PERSONALITY COMBANK ALSO IN LANGE

NOT CBT!!!!!!!! D"B"T = DIALETICAL BEHAVIORAL THERAPY

13 YEAR OLD PT TALKS BACK TO TEACHER AND PARENTS DOESNT DO HOMEWORK DOESNT OBEY HIS CURFEW DOES NOT FOLLOW CLASSROOM RULES

(due to pt obsessively focusing on intellectual aspect of cancer))) INSTEAD THIS IS = INTELLECTUALIZATION = to AVOID ANXIETY ABOUT SOMETHING , PT DECIDES TO FOCUS ON TECHNICAL/INTELLECTUAL ASPECT OF THE SITUATION ((like in this example, pt is spending all his time reading up on cancer instead of really thinking about how it makes him feel)))

PT SAYS 3 WEEK AGO SHE SAW A KID DIE IN A CAR ACCIDENT SINCE THEN, SHE HAS BEEN REALLY AGITATED ANXIOUS SAD DIAGNOSE?

NOT JUST ADJUSTMENT DISORDER! SEEING SOMEONE DIE= MAJOR STRESSOR! SINCE <1 MONTH = ACUTE STRESS DISORDER = IF SX LAST >1 MONTH==>> PTSD

student comes to the physician with the complaint of shortness of breath during anxiety-provoking situations, such as examinations . She also notes perioral tingling, carpopedal spasms, and feelings of derealization at the same time. All of the symptoms pass after the anxiety over the situation has faded. The episodes have never occurred "out of the blue."

NOT PANIC ATTACK =since sx never occurred "out of the blue." = s. Panic disorder is characterized by recurring, spontaneous===NOT DURING JUST ANXIETY PROVOKING SITUATIONS , and unexpected anxiety attacks ============= this pt is suffering from JUST HYPERVENTILATION = Hyperventilation causes hypocapnia and respiratory alkalosis, ==> decreased cerebral blood flow and = Dizziness, derealization, and light-headedness ==>a decrease in ionized serum calcium. = SX SIMILAR TO HYPO-CALCEMIA carpopedal spasm, , PERIORAL TINGLING TX FOR HYPERVENTILATION = BREATHE INTO PAPER BAG

TX OF DELUSIONAL DISORDER?

NOT SSRI! 2ND GEN ANTIPSYCH DRUG= OLANZAPINE, ETC ERR. BUT MEDED SAYS THERAPY ((own tip -delusions are like mild hallucinations/ crazy beliefs so not tx with ssri= not depressed or anxiety)))

TX OF SOMEONE WITH SCHIZOTYPAL PERSONALITY DISORDER ========== BEST BZs FOR ALCOHOL WITHDRAWL

Blockade at the alpha-1 receptor ( B ) is responsible for the dizziness, sedation, and orthostatic hypotension = TCA!! ================ PT B= CONSTIPATION = S.E. OF DRUGS THAT ARE ANTI-CHOLINERGIC= BLOCKING ACH PARASYMP ACTION = BLOCK MUSCARINIC RECEPTORS = THESE DRUGS ARE: ANTIHISTAMINES TCAs CHECK FOR MORE ======== PT C = BLOCK DOPAMINE RECEPTORS= D "2" RECEPTOR = blockade in the tubero-infundibular pathway is responsible for the prolactinemia seen with antipsychotics === PT D =also BLOCK DOPAMINE D2 RECEPTOR in the mesolimbic and mesocortical areas of the brain are responsible for reducing the positive psychotic symptoms in schizophrenia

WHAT DEFENSE MECHANISM WOMEN HAS BEEN HAVING ANGER PROBLEMS HER ENTIRE LIFE , she tells the psychiatrist that she is very afraid of him because he is "so angry all the time." She behaves as if this is true and that the psychiatrist will explode with rage at any minute

PT IS ACCUSING PSYCHIATRIST OF BEING ANGRY AT ALL TIMES = "ACCUSATION" = PROJECTION Projection is recognized when a person perceives and reacts to an unacceptable inner impulse as if the impulse were coming from the external environment.
