Epidémiologie de la psychiatrie de consultation-liaison du Centre Psychosocial Neuchâtelois dans le service de Médecine interne de l'Hôpital de la Chaux-de-Fonds en 1994 et 1998 : Interactions et régulations

Résumé La psychiatrie de consultation-liaison (CL) connaît depuis une décennie un essor majeur en Europe sous l'impulsion des recherches multicentriques du groupe European Consultation Liaison Psychiatry - ECLVV (Huyse). En Suisse, la discipline reste à développer par manque de consultants spécialisés selon le rapport 2000 de l'Association des professeurs titulaires de chaires. Néanmoins une harmonisation progressive des standards européens de documentation et d'évaluation apparaît progressivement, notamment dans les travaux du Service de Psychiatrie de Liaison du Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois. Afin d'améliorer sa pratique de consultation-liaison qui restait jusqu'alors frustrante par un sentiment de débordement et d'absence de feed-back des interventions, le Centre Psychosocial Neuchâtelois de La Chaux-de-Fonds (CPS) a constitué une base de données informatisée de CL à des fins de recherche-action selon les recommandations du groupe ECLVV. Nous avons comparé les valeurs de prévalence de notre activité de CL dans le service de médecine interne de l'Hôpital de La Chaux-de-Fonds en 1994, année du début de l'informatisation des données du CPS, et en 1998, année des plus récents résultats exploitables. La taille de l'échantillon était de 78 cas pour 1994 et de 108 cas pour 1998. Les résultats de notre étude épidémiologique rétrospective et descriptive montraient une augmentation en volume des demandes de CL, une diversification et une complexification des cas. Cette charge croissante sur la psychiatrie de consultation-liaison s'observait également dans les données de la littérature. La réponse psychiatrique du CPS montrait une modestie de moyens et du pragmatisme dans le style des interventions. Ces dernières étaient essentiellement de nature de psychiatrie générale et d'urgence, focalisée sur les tentatives de suicides. Les tentamens, ici comme ailleurs, restent le noyau dur de toute pratique de psychiatrie à l'hôpital général. L'état de lieu de notre pratique de consultation-liaison issu de ce travail a permis de créer une base de données simplifée étendue à l'ensemble des demandes de consultation au CPS afin de réguler le flux de toutes ses interventions face aux demandes toujours croissantes. Dans ce sens, notre étude a montré la nécessité de formaliser les demandes de consultation psychiatrique à l'hôpital général afin d'optimaliser les réponses des consultants.

2006-2007 Academic Year Juvenile Court Schoolbased Liaison Statewide Data

Prepared by the Division of Criminal and Juvenile Justice Planning, Iowa Department of Human Rights

2009-2010 Juvenile Court Services School Liaison Program Data, July 2010

Data are provided to CJJP through statistical summary forms completed by the JCSLs. Because forms are completed only when meaningful contact between a student and a liaison takes place, only a portion of the total population served is reported. Meaningful contact is defined as having at least five contacts within a 60-day period (at any point during the academic year) regarding at least one of the referral reasons supplied on the form. Data are entered into a web-based application by the liaisons and retrieved electronically by CJJP via the internet. Service information is submitted and uploaded only at the end of the academic year.

Cancer du sein et obésité, une liaison dangereuse [Breast cancer and obesity, a dangerous relation].

Obesity is associated with different cancers including breast cancer, whose incidence is increased in postmenopausal women. It has an adverse impact on the prognosis of the patients, regardless of their menopausal status. The fact of receiving a systemic adjuvant therapy does not neutralize the prognostic role of obesity. Moderate weight loss after cancer diagnosis could improve the outcome of the patients, while a weight gain during treatment seems without significant effect. Currently available data are still too incomplete to justify systematic programs to lose weight with an oncologic therapeutic aim. However, it is worth to encourage and support our patients to have an optimal diet, physical activity, and to lose weight as promotion of general health.

Etude clinique et analyse de liaison au locus 3q28 de deux familles suisses avec atrophie optique dominante de Kjer (OPA1) [Clinical study and genetic 3q28 locus linkage in 2 Swiss families with Kjer dominant optic atrophy (OPA1)]

METHODS: We examined 20 patients from 2 unrelated Swiss families to describe their clinical phenotype. In addition, a linkage analysis was performed in an attempt to confirm the reported genetic homogeneity of this condition as well as to refine its genomic localization. RESULTS: Two point analysis provided a cumulative LOD-score of 3.03 with marker D3S 2305. The absence of recombination precluded further refinement of the disease interval. CONCLUSIONS: Our data confirm the genetic homogeneity and the extreme variability of expression, occasionally mimicking low tension glaucoma.

Infirmier en psychiatrie de liaison : développement de la supervision en milieu somatique [Liaison psychiatry nurse: The development of supervision in somatic medicine].

BACKGROUND: Over the years, somatic care has become increasingly specialized. Furthermore, a rising number of patients requiring somatic care also present with a psychiatric comorbidity. As a consequence, the time and resources needed to care for these patients can interfere with the course of somatic treatment and influence the patient-caregiver relationship. In the light of these observations, the Liaison Psychiatry Unit at the University Hospital in Lausanne (CHUV) has educated its nursing staff in order to strengthen its action within the general care hospital. What has been developed is a reflexive approach through supervision of somatic staff, in order to improve the efficiency of liaison psychiatry interventions with the caregivers in charge of patients. The kind of supervision we have developed is the result of a real partnership with somatic staff. Besides, in order to better understand the complexity of interactions between the two systems involved, the patient's and the caregivers', we use several theoretical references in an integrative manner. PSYCHOANALYTICAL REFERENCE: The psychoanalytical model allows us to better understand the dynamics between the supervisor and the supervised group in order to contain and give meaning to the affects arising in the supervision space. "Containing function" and "transitional phenomena" refer to the experience in which emotions can find a space where they can be taken in and processed in a secure and supportive manner. These concepts, along with that of the "psychic envelope", were initially developed to explain the psychological development of the baby in its early interactions with its mother or its surrogate. In the field of supervision, they allow us to be aware of these complex phenomena and the diverse qualities to which a supervisor needs to resort, such as attention, support and incentive, in order to offer a secure environment. SYSTEMIC REFERENCE: A new perspective of the patient's complexity is revealed by the group's dynamics. The supervisor's attention is mainly focused on the work of affects. However, these are often buried under a defensive shell, serving as a temporary protection, which prevents the caregiver from recognizing his or her own emotions, thereby enhancing the difficulties in the relationship with the patient. Whenever the work of putting emotions into words fail, we use "sculpting", a technique derived from the systemic model. Through the use of this type of analogical language, affects can emerge without constraint or feelings of danger. Through "playing" in that "transitional space", new exchanges appear between group members and allow new behaviors to be conceived. In practice, we ask the supervisee who is presenting a complex situation, to design a spatial representation of his or her understanding of the situation, through the display of characters significant to the situation: the patient, somatic staff members, relatives of the patient, etc. In silence, the supervisee shapes the characters into postures and arranges them in the room. Each sculpted character is identified, named, and positioned, with his or her gaze being set in a specific direction. Finally the sculptor shapes him or herself in his or her own role. When the sculpture is complete and after a few moments of fixation, we ask participants to express themselves about their experience. By means of this physical representation, participants to the sculpture discover perceptions and feelings that were unknown up to then. Hence from this analogical representation a reflection and hypotheses of understanding can arise and be developed within the group. CONCLUSION: Through the use of the concepts of "containing function" and "transitional space" we position ourselves in the scope of the encounter and the dialog. Through the use of the systemic technique of "sculpting" we promote the process of understanding, rather than that of explaining, which would place us in the position of experts. The experience of these encounters has shown us that what we need to focus on is indeed what happens in this transitional space in terms of dynamics and process. The encounter and the sharing of competencies both allow a new understanding of the situation at hand, which has, of course, to be verified in the reality of the patient-caregiver relationship. It is often a source of adjustment for interpersonal skills to recover its containing function in order to enable caregiver to better respond to the patient's needs.
