Psychiatry: In this interview we discuss major depressive disorder (MDD) in all its complexity and the challenge it presents to us. MDD not only impacts a patient’s mood, but also their social lives, their professional lives and of course their family and other relationships. We discuss these issues in the setting of treatment choices and the importance of identifying and treating the constellation of MDD symptoms in practice.

Psychiatry: We will often identify psychotic symptoms and be responsible for considering antipsychotic therapy in patients who are treatment naïve. In this interview we look at the considerations that are important when we are contemplating treatment choice.

Psychiatry: Conventionally during the acute phase of psychosis, we’ve tended to focus on short-term treatment of intense positive symptoms, hostility and agitation, and may not consider long-term treatment goals such as the improvement of negative symptoms and cognitive deficits the way we might like. In this interview, we’re talking about the importance of considering long-term treatment goals of schizophrenia when treating patients with psychosis in the acute phase.

NEW Psychiatry. Schizophrenia is a treatable condition, we have good treatments and treatment does lead to remission if we deliver the appropriate treatment. In this interview we discuss the biggest challenges that we face as a clinicians, particularly in patients with an established diagnosis of schizophrenia, as well as patient priorities and how we can balance trust in the relationship while making sure that they have the best outcome.
Ramsay Health Care Professor of Psychiatry, University of Melbourne.
Psychiatry. Schizophrenia is a cyclical disease with approximately 94% of patients experiencing multiple episodes of psychosis. During periods of acute psychosis, patients may require hospitalisation, however eventually they will be discharged, and it’s during this period that transition care arrangements are very important. In this interview we discuss managing patients as they move from inpatient hospitalisation, back to community care.
Ramsay Health Care Professor of Psychiatry, University of Melbourne.
NEW Psychiatry. Patients with schizophrenia want the same things we want in life, they want to return back to life, having a sense of purpose, being able to have their symptoms improve, where they can go back to having relationships with those around them. How can we achieve this post-discharge from hospital?
Ramsay Health Care Professor of Psychiatry, University of Melbourne.
Psychiatry: Evidence-based medicine and treatment effectiveness are important considerations when treating individuals with schizophrenia. We don’t have a medicine cookbook, instead we need our clinical experience and knowledge, together with the relevant evidence. In this interview we discuss how to evaluate the evidence that is presented to us.
Ramsay Health Care Professor of Psychiatry, University of Melbourne.
