5) The
The document discusses various treatments for childhood and adolescent disorders. It describes behavioral therapies like applied behavior analysis and early intensive behavioral intervention that are commonly used and effective for autism spectrum disorders. For eating disorders like anorexia and bulimia, treatment involves nutrition, therapy to address underlying psychological issues, and hospitalization in severe cases. Behavioral disorders like ADHD are treated through parent training, school interventions, and child-focused treatments using behavioral modification approaches. Multisystemic therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and parent training programs are highlighted as effective treatments for conduct disorder and oppositional defiant disorder.
CBT is an effective treatment for OCD due to its ability to trigger lasting neural changes through learning. It involves psychoeducation, challenging irrational assumptions, exposure to feared situations without compulsions, and response prevention. Studies show large effect sizes for CBT compared to medications alone. CBT aims to reduce anxiety and distress from obsessions by stopping thoughts and using distractions, while exposure therapy targets compulsions. Success requires understanding all symptoms, motivated patients, and therapists able to systematically implement the CBT techniques.

This document discusses attention and perception. It defines attention as the process of selecting stimuli from the environment based on interest and attitude. There are two types of attention: voluntary/involuntary. Voluntary attention involves conscious effort while involuntary is not under conscious control. Some factors that influence attention are stimulus characteristics like intensity, size, and movement as well as individual factors like interests, attitudes, and needs. Perception is defined as interpreting sensations to experience objects and events. The document outlines factors that affect attention span and discusses distraction.
Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) is a chronic mental illness characterized by unwanted obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. It is thought to be caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors like streptococcal infections. Common obsessions include fears of contamination, harming oneself or others, or forgetting important information. Compulsions are repetitive behaviors performed to relieve anxiety, such as excessive washing, counting, or checking. Treatments include antidepressant medication, exposure and response prevention therapy, stress management techniques, and support groups. At school, accommodations like extra time on assignments or testing in a quiet space can help students with OCD.
This document discusses psychological therapies for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), including exposure and response prevention (ERP) therapy and cognitive-behavioral therapy. ERP therapy involves exposing patients to anxiety-provoking stimuli while preventing compulsive rituals to help them learn anxiety can be reduced without rituals. Cognitive-behavioral therapy identifies and challenges irrational thoughts to modify dysfunctional beliefs and behaviors. Both therapies aim to "unlearn" conditioned obsessive and compulsive behaviors through reconditioning or cognitive restructuring.

It outlines that challenging behaviors can develop due to a lack of adaptive functioning skills, family dynamics, sensory issues, abuse or bullying. Behaviors serve to get attention, access preferred items, avoid non-preferred stimuli or sensory experiences. Proper management requires understanding the behavior's function and underlying reasons through tools like ABC charts and motivation assessment scales. Interventions include teaching new skills, sensory integration, parenting skills training and individual therapy alongside continued monitoring.
This document provides guidance on developmental examinations for children from birth to 5 years. It outlines typical developmental milestones and domains to be assessed at different ages, including motor skills, cognition, language, and social development. The developmental examination involves taking a family history, observing the child's interactions and abilities, and using structured tasks to assess skills such as object permanence, categorization, and fine motor coordination. Delays in reaching milestones or abnormalities in behaviors could indicate atypical development requiring further evaluation.
This document discusses palliative care in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) setting. It provides two case studies of patients in the PICU and discusses challenges of caring for critically ill children and their families. These include issues with communication between medical teams and families, ensuring comfort for patients and support for families, and facilitating smooth transitions of care. The document emphasizes the importance of integrating palliative care principles in the PICU, including managing pain and symptoms, addressing psychosocial needs, and prioritizing the child and family's quality of life over solely curative or life-prolonging interventions.
Diagnostic approach to acute encephalopathyTeik Beng Khoo
This document discusses the diagnostic approach to acute encephalopathy in children. It defines encephalopathy as global brain dysfunction and lists its potential causes including CNS infections, autoimmune disorders, metabolic disorders, and trauma. The diagnostic approach involves a thorough history, physical exam, and targeted investigations based on clinical clues. Initial tests should aim to identify treatable conditions, while further imaging and labs are tailored to top differential diagnoses. Prompt diagnosis is important to minimize neurological impairment in this pediatric emergency.
Electrical status beyond convulsive status epilepticusTeik Beng Khoo
Non-convulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) refers to ongoing seizures without convulsions lasting more than 30 minutes. Studies have found NCSE occurs in 11-21% of pediatric intensive care unit patients based on EEG findings. Risk factors for NCSE include prior seizures, acute brain injury, and abnormal brain imaging. Left untreated, NCSE can lead to worse outcomes including increased mortality and neurological impairment. Prompt treatment of NCSE is important to mitigate negative effects.
This document discusses critical care EEG monitoring. It provides information on the indications for EEG monitoring, including seizure assessment and brain death evaluation. It notes that about half of seizures in patients are identified within the first hour of monitoring, but up to 90% are identified within 24 hours. However, the duration of monitoring should be tailored to the individual patient. The document also discusses electrographic seizures versus clinical seizures and presents findings from a study which found that over 66% of events initially suspected to be seizures were actually non-epileptic based on EEG monitoring. It emphasizes that EEG monitoring is an important tool but remains labor-intensive.

• AgitaJon
• Aggression
• DisrupJve
behaviour
• Self-‐injurous
behaviour
• A
significant
change
in
funcJon
(loss
of
interests,
withdrawal
from
family,
etc.)
• School
expulsion
and/or
an
inability
to
leave
the
home.

5. PrevenJon
• The
most
effecJve
way
to
manage
challenging
behaviours
is
to
try
prevenJng
them
from
happening
rather
than
just
focusing
on
what
to
do
when
or
aLer
the
behaviour
occurs.
• Learn
skills
to
help
anJcipate
and
turn
around
an
escalaJng
situaJon.

6. PosiJve
Behaviour
Support
Approach
• Consider
the
purpose
or
‘why’
of
the
behaviour
• Focus
on
prevenJng
the
behaviour
from
happening
by
avoiding
or
changing
the
circumstances
that
trigger
the
behaviour
• Teach
new
behaviours
or
skills
to
replace
the
challenging
behaviour
6
7. What
purpose
(or
FuncJon)
does
challenging
behaviour
serve?
• All
behaviour
happens
for
a
reason
• Health
problems
-‐
may
cause
challenging
behaviour
or
make
it
worse.
• Common
reasons
are:
– Interact
with
someone
– Social
aNenJon:
e.g.
shouJng
– To
get
something:
A
person
may
learn
behaviours
that
get
them
things
they
want.
– Escape
or
avoid
a
demand/
request/
situaJon/
object/
person
– Sensory:
to
get/
avoid
sensory
sJmulaJon
i.e.
rocking,
humming
– Get
some
control
or
predictability
over
their
day
or
the
acJvity
– Reduce
their
arousal
and
or
anxiety.

8. FuncJonal
Assessment
• To
find
out
the
exact
causes
of
a
person’s
behaviour
• Keep
a
record:
1. DescripJon
of
the
behaviour
i.e.
exactly
what
happens
2. Early
warning
signs,
e.g.
becoming
red
in
the
face
3. What
happens
before
the
behaviour,
e.g.
does
something
trigger
the
behaviours?
Noisy
environment?
Being
told
no?
etc.
4. What
happens
aLer
the
event,
i.e.
what
is
the
person
gejng
or
not
gejng
from
the
behaviour
that
makes
them
do
it
again?

10
11. Ways
to
Calm
an
EscalaJng
SituaJon
• Be
on
alert
for
triggers
and
warning
signs.
• Try
to
reduce
stressors
by
removing
distracJng
elements,
going
to
a
less
stressful
place
or
providing
a
calming
acJvity
or
object.
• Remain
calm,
as
his
behavior
is
likely
to
trigger
emoJons
in
you.
• Be
gentle
and
paJent.
• Give
him
space.
• Provide
clear
direcJons
and
use
simple
language.
• Focus
on
returning
to
a
calm
state
by
allowing
Jme
in
a
quiet,
relaxaJon-‐promoJng
acJvity.
• Praise
aNempts
to
self-‐regulate
and
the
use
of
strategies
such
as
deep
breathing.
• Discuss
the
situaJon
or
teach
alternate
and
more
appropriate
responses
once
calm
has
been
achieved.
11
12. In
the
midst
of
a
Crisis
SituaJon
• Remain
as
calm
as
possible
• Assess
the
severity
of
the
situaJon
• Follow
the
Crisis
Plan
and
focus
on
safety
• Determine
whom
to
contact
• Dial
999
for
an
emergency
• Remember:
this
is
not
a
‘teachable’
moment.
12
13. • Consider
the
safety
of
your
child
&
those
around
them:
– can
you
remove
your
child
from
the
situaJon
safely?
– do
you
need
to
remove
yourself
and
other
family
members
from
the
room
or
situaJon?
– do
you
need
to
remove
items
from
the
environment
or
room
that
could
be
unsafe?
• Consider
the
language
you
use
with
your
child
to
avoid
escala7on:
– avoid
talking
as
much
as
possible
(stressful
to
have
to
work
out
what
your
words
mean)
– Use
short,
simple
instrucJons
if
needed
(include
a
visual
clue
eg.
Opening
door
to
show
your
child
they
can
go
outside
to
calm)
– use
a
calm
even
voice.
13
14. • Try
to
regain
calm
as
quickly
as
possible
by:
– What
will
help
the
child
calm
as
quickly
as
possible
(Jme
alone,
access
to
an
acJvity
or
item
he/she
likes
that
is
calming)
– What
will
help
you
calm
as
quickly
as
possible
(leaving
the
room,
gejng
other
family
members
safe,
gejng
back-‐up)
– Allow
lots
of
Jme
for
recovery
14
15. Challenges
for
Medical
Professionals
• Listen
to
the
caregiver
and
the
paJent
to
the
extent
possible.
They're
very
unique
in
how
they
interact.
• Do
not
think
that
we
know
beNer.
• Aim
to
least
restricJve
care.

advocate
yourself
15
16. Physical
Restraints,
Seclusion
&
Rapid
TranquillizaJon
• When
behaviors
pose
a
risk
of
physical
harm
to
the
individual
or
others,
a
brief
intervenJon
are
someJmes
necessary
to
maintain
safety.
• Physical
restraints
-‐
immobilizing
or
reducing
the
ability
of
an
individual
to
move
their
arms,
legs,
body
freely.

-‐
pujng
the
individual
briefly
in
a
room

‘calm
down’.
16
17. Physical
Restraints,
Seclusion
&
Rapid
TranquillizaJon
(cont)
• As
last
resort

when
less
restricJve
methods
are
not
effecJve
or
feasible.
• Improper
use
can
have
serious
consequences
physically
and
emoJonally
• Must
take
place
within
the
legal
framework
ie.
Consent
or
Mental
Health
Act
17
18. Rapid
TranquillizaJon
• The
aim
is
to
achieve
a
state
of
calm
sufficient
to
minimize
the
risk
posed
to
the
individual
or
to
others.
• Rapid
tranquillisaJon
with
intramuscular
or
intravenous
injecJons
should
only
be
used
in
healthcare
sejngs
with
appropriate
resuscitaJons
need.
18
20. De-‐escalaJon

irritability
• Comprehensive
assessment
of
the
individual's
emoJonal
and
behavioural
disturbance
and
assessment
of
the
efficacy
of
all
previous
modes
of
treatment.
• Issue
of
informed
consent
&
legal
maNer
• Should
be
integrated
with
other
concurrent
treatments.
MedicaJon
alone
to
is
not
sufficient.

22. The
Use
of
MedicaJon
(cont)
• SomeJmes
unrealisJc
demands
to
solve
the
problem
by
