Neuromodulation in Psychiatry
Author: Clement Hamani
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1118801040
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 524
Book Description
Neuromodulation in Psychiatry Neuromodulation in Psychiatry This is the first comprehensive and detailed reference work that focuses on neuromodulation strategies in psychiatry. Neuromodulation strategies are no longer confined to tertiary hospitals but are used in community practices and even by individual psychiatrists. Surgery for psychiatric disorders is one of the main advances in the field of functional neurosurgery. Neuromodulation in psychiatry includes chapters on the history of this controversial field and the ethics of modern usage of such techniques. Specific chapters are devoted to neuromodulation and surgical strategies used in psychiatry including transcranial magnetic stimulation, transcranial direct current stimulation, vagus nerve stimulation, direct cortical stimulation and deep brain stimulation. A chapter describes the basic principles of each techniques, using figures and schematics to illustrate details for people who do not have personal experience of using these techniques. Another chapter then focuses on the results of clinical research, trials and applications for that strategy. Written by an expert multidisciplinary editorial team across the fields of neurosurgery, psychiatry and neurology, this title: Encompasses basic principles, technical aspects and clinical applications including ethical considerations Clearly explains each technique with implications for clinical practice Presents evidence in a comprehensive summary suitable for all levels Allows psychiatrists to evaluate results obtained using such strategies and to make decisions regarding the best course of treatment for their patients An essential reference guide for psychiatrists, psychologists neurosurgeons, neurologists and respective trainees. The book is the first comprehensive reference work to cover all neuromodulation strategies now used or with potential use in psychiatry. It allows psychiatrists to evaluate results obtained using such strategies and to make decision regarding the best course of treatment for their patients.

Drug Discovery for Psychiatric Disorders
Author: Zoran Rankovic
Publisher: Royal Society of Chemistry
ISBN: 1849734941
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 615
Book Description
The discovery and development of effective medicines for the treatment of psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia and depression has been heralded as one of the great medical achievements of the past century. Indeed, the profound impact of these medicines on our understanding of the pathophysiology underlying these diseases, the treatment of psychiatric patients and even our social perception of mental illnesses cannot be underestimated. However, there is still an urgent medical need for even more effective, safe and well-tolerated treatments. For example, currently available treatments for schizophrenia address mainly the positive symptoms and largely neglect the negative symptoms and cognitive disfunction which greatly impact overall morbidity. Similarly, whilst the current first line antidepressants show significantly improved side effect profiles compared to the first generation therapies, there still up to 40% of patients who are treatment resistant, and even in the patient population which responds well, the onset of action is slow at typically 2-3 weeks. The aim of this book is to provide the first point of call for those involved or just interested in this rapidly expanding and increasingly fragmented field of research and drug discovery. The editors will combine their wide ranging experience and extensive network of contacts with leading scientists and opinion leaders in this field to provide an authoritative reference text covering the evolution, major advances, challenges and future directions in drug discovery and medicinal chemistry for major psychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia, depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, addiction and autism.

Non-Invasive Neuromodulation of the Central Nervous System
Author: National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine
Publisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309376211
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 103
Book Description
Based on advances in biotechnology and neuroscience, non-invasive neuromodulation devices are poised to gain clinical importance in the coming years and to be of increasing interest to patients, clinicians,health systems, payers, and industry. Evidence suggests that both therapeutic and non-therapeutic applications of non-invasive neuromodulation will continue to expand in coming years, particularly for indications where treatments are currently insufficient, such as drug-resistant depression. Given the growing interest in non-invasive neuromodulation technologies, the Institute of Medicine's Forum on Neuroscience and Nervous System Disorders convened a workshop, inviting a range of stakeholders - including developers of devices and new technologies, researchers, clinicians, ethicists, regulators, and payers - to explore the opportunities, challenges, and ethical questions surrounding the development, regulation, and reimbursement of these devices for the treatment of nervous system disorders as well as for non-therapeutic uses, including cognitive and functional enhancement. This report highlights the presentation and discussion of the workshop.
