商品描述

The book offers a must-have tool primarily for psychiatrists, geriatricians, neurologists, and psychologists, but will also be of interest to general practitioners for first line assessment.

The aim of this book is to establish a gold standard: a reference work to be used as a clinical guide to the assessment of mental illness in older persons in the field. Psychogeriatrics is generally a very specific field in the midst of different disciplines, where there is hardly a clinical consensus on how to best assess and treat elderly subjects with mental or behavioral symptoms, possibly resulting from psychiatric disorders. This book provides clear and practical indications, prepared by a panel of international experts in the field with extensive scientific and clinical experience. Boxes with first and second line actions for assessing and treating mental illness in the elderly are included, and all chapters are uniformly divided into sections on epidemiology, etiopathogenesis, differential diagnosis, assessment, and treatment.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書主要針對精神科醫生、老年醫學家、神經科醫生和心理學家提供一個必備工具,但也對一線評估的全科醫生具有興趣。

本書的目標是建立一個黃金標準:作為臨床指南,用於評估老年人精神疾病的參考工具。精神老年學通常是一個非常特定的領域,涉及不同學科,鮮有臨床共識,關於如何最佳評估和治療可能由精神疾病引起的老年人的心理或行為症狀。本書由一組在該領域具有廣泛科學和臨床經驗的國際專家提供清晰而實用的指引。書中包含了評估和治療老年人精神疾病的一線和二線行動的方塊,所有章節都統一分為流行病學、病因病機、鑑別診斷、評估和治療等部分。
