Course release date: 10/09/2023
About the Course
Self-injury is a serious behavioral problem in which an individual purposefully inflicts damage to his or her body through methods such as cutting, scratching, burning, or other activities in the absence of suicidal intent. Research indicates high prevalence rates of self-injury, with between 13% and 45% of adolescents reporting having purposely self-injured at least once, and 4% to 28% of adult clinical populations reporting a lifetime occurrence of the behavior (Bentley, et al., 2014; Plener et al., 2016). Common methods of self-injury include skin cutting, scratching to the point of drawing blood, head banging or hitting, burning, and inserting sharp objects into the skin, among other methods. This behavior can result in serious medical complications and is a known risk factor for later suicidal behavior. Â Â
- Protocols on Pain Assessment and Management in Modern Medicine 5
Course release date: 10/9/2023
About the Course
Pain assessment is considered a pivotal aspect of modern medicine. In a broader sense as a concept, pain assessment involves a comprehensive clinical judgment describing and analyzing pain based on the type, significance, and context of the patients’ experience. Describing pain with these assessment tools can be either difficult or easy depending on the demographics of the patients. In pediatric pain assessment, pre-verbal and developmentally disabled children might find it extremely difficult to properly describe the nature and severity of pain. In most cases, modern protocols for pain assessment in this population advise the use of behavioral tools in place of self-reported pain models. Medical personnel handling sessions of pain assessment in the pediatric population are trained to recognize, gauge and document different behavioral cues necessary to improve pain assessment in children. In the geriatric population, pain assessment is more multidimensional, requiring the consideration of different behavioral and physiological cues.Â
- Psychopharmacology in Behavioral Health Medicine 4
Course release date: 10/09/2023
About the Course
Clinical psychopharmacology has evolved over the past decade. The primary drive for its global adoption in the medical community stems from its unique objective of exploring the physiological influence of medications on the behavior of animals, and by extension humans. In addition, the number of psychopharmacological studies exploring the psychotropic nature of drugs and the possibilities of instituting the findings from these studies in primary care settings has doubled. This has birthed the emergence of a strong link between neurosciences and psychiatry, founded solidly on the biological knowledge of neuronal connectivity, neurotransmitter physiology, drug mechanism of action, neuronal circuitry, and psychotropic drug targets in the brain.
- Suicidal Ideation and Behavior in the Global Youth Population 4Release Date: 7/10/2023About the courseThis course explores suicidal thoughts and behavior in the global youth population. The course aims to merge different research analysis and summaries from different peer-reviewed literatures, therapy guidelines and research institutions with primary focus on the local and urban drivers of suicidal ideation and outcomes in the global youth population. Earlier research attempts to understand the drivers of suicidal trends globally identified a few key risk factors. However, in recent years, general population surveys centered on suicidal thoughts has identified a complex interplay of factors actively driving the triggers, method, and outcomes of suicidal behaviors.
