13. Challenges and Solutions
Isolation
– Identifying key stakeholders and utilising as allies
– Reaching out to other allied health professional in similar
settings
Clinical guidelines vs. clinical practice
– Striving for best practice, but understanding changes to
clinical practice can take time
Inpatient vs. outpatient
– Limited resources available for patients
– Ask for feedback from consumers and other hospital staff
MDT integration
– Work with other allied health to see how our team and/or
service can be better integrated
14. Future Directions
Expansion of exercise physiology
services at FHMHS
Embedding automatic referral protocol for
metabolically active anti-psychotics.
Further integration of lifestyle
advice/intervention into standard clinical
practice
Quantitative and qualitative analysis of
service incl. outcome measures
PH & MI is multifaceted, transdiagnostic and world-wide problem.
10-15 year reduction in life expectancy
↑ risk of physical multimorbidity from onset of the mental illness
Average age of onset of multimorbidity is younger in people with MI
Obesity & metabolic syndrome may be independent predictors of relapse & rehospitalisation for those with severe MI
Poor physical health in people with MI is multifaceted, transdiagnostic and world-wide problem.
People with a serious mental illness die 10-15 years earlier than the general population due to poor physical activity
In 2017-2018, approximately 4.8 million Australians (20%) reported having a mental or behavioural condition, with an estimated 90% of those experiencing co-existing, long-term mental and physical health conditions
Despite the increasing amount of research in this area and more general advancements in health care and medicine, the poor physical health outcomes (and the associated decrease in life expectancy) of people with mental illness have not improved. In fact, the number of years of life lost due to physical health conditions in people with mental illness might be increasing.
For instance, for patients with depression, the risk of developing cardiac disease, hypertension, stroke, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, or obesity is around 40% higher than in the general population.
Emerging evidence suggests that obesity and metabolic syndrome are independent predictors of relapse and rehospitalisation for those with severe mental illness. This relationship could be explained by the inflammatory effects of abdominal obesity; inflammation has also been associated with worse mental health
Some large-scale, multinational studies have shown that people with severe mental illness, common mental disorders, and substance use disorders are at a greatly increased risk of physical multimorbidity from the point of onset of the mental illness. The average age of onset of multimorbidity is younger in people with mental illness compared with the general population. Multimorbidity greatly increases the personal and economic burden associated with chronic conditions, and reduces life expectancy compared with a single morbidity.
Weight gain is the most distressing side-effect reported by callers to mental health helplines, and is associated with poorer quality of life and barriers to social engagement. As a result, patients who gain weight have a reduced adherence to treatment, which can lead to relapse and poor mental health outcomes.
Although most antipsychotic medications lead to weight gain, clozapine and olanzapine have the highest propensity
Weight gain associated with drugs for psychosis is not usually dose-dependent, so dose reduction will not be effective in reducing weight.
Metaanalyses (table 1) have found that the risk of metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes is at least twice as high in people with schizophrenia, bipolar affective disorder, and major depressive disorder compared with the general population
Hyperprolactinaemia is most commonly found with first-generation antipsychotics, as well as risperidone, paliperidone, and amisulpride. Hyperprolactinaemia can be asymptomatic, or can lead to complications, such as menstrual disturbance and sexual dysfunction (including reduced libido, erectile dysfunction, vaginal dryness, and orgasmic dysfunction ) in the short-term, and osteopenia in the long-term.
Extrapyramidal side-effects include dystonia (muscle spasm), Parkinsonism (tremor, rigidity, and bradykinesia), akathisia (subjective restlessness), and tardive dyskinesia (abnormal involuntary movements).
Anticholinergic effects are common side-effects of antipsychotic medications, particularly chlorpromazine, clozapine, and olanzapine. Anticholinergic effects are mediated by antagonism of acetylcholine by inhibition of the muscarinic receptors. They can be either central (eg, impairment of cognition, memory, and concentration, and sedation) or peripheral (eg, constipation, dry eyes, mouth, and skin, blurred vision, tachycardia, and urinary retention)
Sodium valproate is associated with metabolic effects, with at least half of individuals gaining weight in the first 3 months after initiation, with a mean weight gain of 6·4 kg over 3 months
Antipsychotic medications are often prescribed concurrently with mood stabilisers; additional caution is required in this situation because the metabolic effects of the two classes of medication could be additive.
People with mental illness tend to have more unhealthy lifestyles compared with the general population, and among people with mental illness, those with schizophrenia have a particularly high risk of smoking, sedentary behaviour, and poor diet
However, lifestyle risk factors are still greater in patients with schizophrenia than those with other mental health disorders, even when controlling for socioeconomic factors
The use of second-generation antipsychotics (SGAs) could contribute to changes in diet, because trials in healthy volunteers found that SGAs such as olanzapine can reduce satiety, increase appetite 183 and lethargy, and have sedative effects
No suitable tools are available for clinicians to comprehensively assess lifestyle factors as part of standard care. The sole use of biological markers for physical health assessment (such as >7% increase in bodyweight, high blood pressure, and an abnormal lipid profile) could mean that interventions are applied only when it is too late to protect metabolic health or pre-empt obesity (panel 2). Clinical guidelines are increasingly recommending that assessments of diet, physical activity, and health risk behaviours are done alongside assessments of anthropomorphic parameters and blood markers of metabolic status, 204 to more accurately assess current physical health and future risk
In conclusion, people with mental illness are likely to receive a poorer standard of health care compared with people without mental illness who have the same physical health problems
