Tendencias y proyecciones de la población del área metropolitana del Valle de Aburrá en Colombia, 2010-2030

Los cambios demográficos, económicos y sociales que ha sufrido el área metropolitana del Valle de Aburrá en Colombia dan cuenta de una de las dinámicas poblacionales y territoriales más importantes registradas en el país. Con más de 3,5 millones de habitantes distribuidos en 10 municipios que incluyen a Medellín, la capital del departamento de Antioquia, las tendencias por grupos de edad y sexo también muestran notorias recuperaciones de la población respecto de los violentos tiempos del pasado, que dejaron elevadas tasas de mortalidad plasmadas en las pirámides poblacionales. En la actualidad, la dinámica del área metropolitana del Valle de Aburrá revela una desaceleración de los procesos de concentración hacia Medellín y ha empezado a manifestar la consolidación de nuevos centros de agrupación poblacional en los municipios colindantes, con fenómenos de rururbanización que marcarán la tendencia en las siguientes dos décadas.

Evaluating a GP consultative psychiatric service in an Australian metropolitan hospital district

Objective: The aim was to develop a psychiatric assessment and advisory service for local general practitioners (GPs). Method: In July 2001, five full-time psychiatrists at Royal Brisbane ­Hospital each dedicated a 1-h appointment per week in their hospital private practice clinic to assess patients referred by local GPs. The 'Psych Opinion' clinic was advertised through the Division of General Practice Newsletter. After 12 months, the referrals to the clinic had been disappointing so two surveys were carried out: one to the GPs who had used the service and the other to those who had not referred. Results: Feedback from the GPs who had used the service showed a high level of satisfaction with the service. The second survey of the GPs who had not referred showed a strong endorsement of the concept but there was poor awareness of the service's existence. Conclusions: This model offers a way for public sector psychiatrists to provide timely assessments to local GPs without additional funding. There is strong support and willingness from the GPs to refer. However, the need to actively market the service both initially and on an ongoing basis is ­highlighted.

Type of housing predicts rate of readmission to hospital but not length of stay in people with schizophrenia on the Gold Coast in Queensland

Accommodation is considered to be important by institutions interested in mental health care both in Australia and internationally. Some authorities assert that no component of a community mental health system is more important than decent affordable housing. Unfortunately there has been little research in Australia into the consequences of discharging people with a primary diagnosis of schizophrenia to different types of accommodation. This paper uses archival data to investigate the outcomes for people with schizophrenia discharged to two types of accommodation. The types of accommodation chosen are the person's own home and for-profit boarding house. These two were chosen because the literature suggests that they are respectively the most and least desirable types of accommodation. Results suggest that people with schizophrenia who were discharged to boarding houses are significantly more likely to be readmitted to the psychiatric unit of Gold Coast Hospital although their length of stay in hospital is not significantly different.
