  bio psycho social assessment: The Biopsychosocial Model of Health and Disease Derek Bolton, Grant Gillett, 2019-03-28 This open access book is a systematic update of the philosophical and scientific foundations of the biopsychosocial model of health, disease and healthcare. First proposed by George Engel 40 years ago, the Biopsychosocial Model is much cited in healthcare settings worldwide, but has been increasingly criticised for being vague, lacking in content, and in need of reworking in the light of recent developments. The book confronts the rapid changes to psychological science, neuroscience, healthcare, and philosophy that have occurred since the model was first proposed and addresses key issues such as the model’s scientific basis, clinical utility, and philosophical coherence. The authors conceptualise biology and the psychosocial as in the same ontological space, interlinked by systems of communication-based regulatory control which constitute a new kind of causation. These are distinguished from physical and chemical laws, most clearly because they can break down, thus providing the basis for difference between health and disease. This work offers an urgent update to the model’s scientific and philosophical foundations, providing a new and coherent account of causal interactions between the biological, the psychological and social.

  bio psycho social assessment: The Rise and Fall of the Biopsychosocial Model S. Nassir Ghaemi, 2010-01-01 2010 Outstanding Academic Title, Choice Magazine This is the first book-length historical critique of psychiatry’s mainstream ideology, the biopsychosocial (BPS) model. Developed in the twentieth century as an outgrowth of psychosomatic medicine, the biopsychosocial model is seen as an antidote to the constraints of the medical model of psychiatry. Nassir Ghaemi details the origins and evolution of the BPS model and explains how, where, and why it fails to live up to its promises. He analyzes the works of its founders, George Engel and Roy Grinker Sr., traces its rise in acceptance, and discusses its relation to the thought of William Osler and Karl Jaspers. In assessing the biopsychosocial model, Ghaemi provides a philosophically grounded evaluation of the concept of mental illness and the relation between evidence-based medicine and psychiatry. He argues that psychiatry's conceptual core is eclecticism, which in the face of too much freedom paradoxically leads many of its adherents to enact their own dogmas. Throughout, he makes the case for a new paradigm of medical humanism and method-based psychiatry that is consistent with modern science while incorporating humanistic aspects of the art of medicine. Ghaemi shows how the historical role of the BPS model as a reaction to biomedical reductionism is coming to an end and urges colleagues in the field to embrace other, less-eclectic perspectives.

  bio psycho social assessment: Understanding Racial and Ethnic Differences in Health in Late Life National Research Council, Division of Behavioral and Social Sciences and Education, Committee on Population, Panel on Race, Ethnicity, and Health in Later Life, 2004-09-08 As the population of older Americans grows, it is becoming more racially and ethnically diverse. Differences in health by racial and ethnic status could be increasingly consequential for health policy and programs. Such differences are not simply a matter of education or ability to pay for health care. For instance, Asian Americans and Hispanics appear to be in better health, on a number of indicators, than White Americans, despite, on average, lower socioeconomic status. The reasons are complex, including possible roles for such factors as selective migration, risk behaviors, exposure to various stressors, patient attitudes, and geographic variation in health care. This volume, produced by a multidisciplinary panel, considers such possible explanations for racial and ethnic health differentials within an integrated framework. It provides a concise summary of available research and lays out a research agenda to address the many uncertainties in current knowledge. It recommends, for instance, looking at health differentials across the life course and deciphering the links between factors presumably producing differentials and biopsychosocial mechanisms that lead to impaired health.
  bio psycho social assessment: Acceleration of the Biopsychosocial Model in Public Health Taukeni, Simon George, 2023-02-20 It is generally well-established that the biomedical model is informed on the assumption that the occurrence of the disease is the result of biological molecules inside the body. This is seen in the view of the biopsychosocial model that the biomedical model is excluding the importance of psychological, social, economic, environmental, spiritual, and behavioral dimensions of the illness. It is essential to create better awareness to accelerate the use of the biopsychosocial model—focusing on the individual as a whole rather than the illness alone. Acceleration of the Biopsychosocial Model in Public Health accelerates the inclusion of the biopsychosocial model in the public health sector in order to achieve universal health coverage. It provides a better understanding of the role of various factors, such as psychological, social, emotional, economic, and behavioral, that are responsible for the development of diseases in order to develop comprehensive prevention and intervention measures. Covering topics such as psychological well-being, public health awareness, and system dynamics, this premier reference source is an excellent resource for public health officials, health therapists, health educators, health psychologists, occupational therapists, palliative care providers, community healthcare providers, hospital administrators, health professionals, medical students, medical libraries, researchers, and academicians.

  bio psycho social assessment: Exploring the Biopsychosocial Model in Irritable Bowel Syndrome Anna-Karin Norlin, 2020-10-09 Background Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common, chronic, relapsing, and sometimes disabling, symptombased disorder of gut brain interactions. It has got a female predominance and occurs in all ages, with a slight decrease among elderly. The IBS symptoms can affect everyday work and social life in addition to an increased use of health care resources. Most IBS patients are diagnosed and helped in primary health care (PHC). For many patients, available treatment is insufficient. It is known that both extraintestinal symptoms such as fatigue, as well as comorbidities such as mood disorders, chronic pain syndromes, and insomnia contribute to the illness burden, often to a larger extent than the gastrointestinal symptoms as such. Even though the pathophysiology of IBS is not completely known, it is now conceptualized as a disorder of altered brain-gut interactions, where a biopsychosocial model helps in understanding the symptoms. Exposure to stress is thought to play an important role overall in the pathology of IBS, as well as immune activation at least in a subgroup of patients. This thesis aimed to gain deeper understanding of the biopsychosocial mechanisms of IBS and its associations with stress, comorbidities, and fatigue. Methods Study I and II are based on the Twin cities IBS study population, which included IBS patients and a control group of other patients without gastrointestinal complaints from ten PHC centres in the county of Östergötland. Alongside demographics, psychosocial questionnaires and a GI symptom diary, it included analyses of hair cortisol concentrations (HCC) evaluated in study I, and data on self-rated health as well as diagnoses of comorbidities, and number of health care contacts from a regional registry, evaluated for study II. Study III of this thesis is based on the Brain-Gut study with a population of secondary care IBS patients, and healthy controls (HC). It included self-rated measures of fatigue impact on the daily life and early adverse life events, as well as measures of circulating TNF-α, and analyses of resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging of brain areas within a mesocorticolimbic circuitry of known relevance for fatigue. Results Study I: Perceived stress was higher in the IBS group while a considerable portion of IBS patients had low levels of HCC. No association between perceived stress and HCC was seen in either group. Study II: IBS patients had lower self-rated health and more PHC utilization than the non-IBS patients. Good self-rated health was independently associated with younger age, higher sense of coherence and less gastrointestinal pain in both groups. In IBS, PHC utilization was associated with comorbidities in general, and sleep disorders in particular. Study III: Fatigue impact on daily life, and TNF- α were higher in IBS patients than in HC. In IBS, further an association was seen between fatigue impact on the one hand, and TNF- α, emotional abuse in childhood, as well as altered mesocorticolimbic connectivity on the other. Conclusion In conclusion this thesis firstly emphasizes that IBS patients in many ways, including health outcomes, consists a vulnerable group of PHC patients. We add evidence for a possible suppression of the stress response system in a substantial portion of IBS patients. Further, comorbid sleep disorders seem to be particularly associated with excess PHC utilization in IBS and could possibly be a target for treatment interventions. Moreover, alongside treating gastrointestinal pain, efforts to improve the individuals’ sense of coherence could be one way to achieve better self-rated health in both IBS and non-IBS patients. Finally, we suggest that fatigue in IBS is associated with immune activation, central alterations and to some extend also previous childhood trauma. IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) är en vanlig, kronisk tarmsjukdom med återkommande symtom av buksmärta tillsammans med ändrade avföringsvanor. Den drabbar cirka 10% av befolkningen och är vanligast hos kvinnor samt något mindre vanlig hos äldre. För många innebär IBS ett stort lidande, försämrad livskvalitet och ökad sjukvårdskonsumtion. De flesta IBS-patienter tas om hand i primärvården. Nuvarande, tillgänglig behandling är ofta otillräcklig. En del IBS-patienter har också andra symtom, så som muskelsmärta och uttalad trötthet, som inte går över vid vila, så kallad fatigue. Det är också vanligt förekommande med andra sjukdomstillstånd såsom depression och andra smärtsyndrom. Det är visat att den typen av symtom och samsjuklighet många gånger är värre för IBS-patienten än de faktiska magtarmsymptomen. Numera tror man att symtomen vid IBS beror på störningar i det ömsesidiga samspelet mellan tarm och hjärna, men de bakomliggande mekanismerna är inte helt klarlagda. För att förstå IBS-patientens symtom är en så kallad biopsykosocial förklaringsmodell till stor hjälp, då symtomen inte bara beror av biologiska mekanismer, utan individens sociala miljö samt psykologiska reaktioner spelar också stor roll. Stress är centralt för så väl utveckling av, som symtom vid IBS och även för förståelsen av den biopsykosociala förklaringsmodellen generellt. Tidigare forskning visar också att immunsystemet är påverkat hos åtminstone en andel av IBS-patienterna. Syftet med den här avhandlingen var att nå en djupare förståelse av biopsykosociala mekanismer vid IBS med fokus på stress, samsjuklighet och fatigue. Delstudie I och II jämförde IBS-patienter och en kontrollgrupp med andra primärvårdspatienter, utan magtarmsymtom på 10 vårdcentraler i Östergötland. Delstudie III undersökte IBS-patienter på magtarmkliniken i Linköping i jämförelse med friska kontroller. I delstudie I undersökte vi kortisol i hår-nivåer, som ett mått på hur stresshormonnivåerna varit över tid. Trots att IBS-patienterna som grupp beskrev en större självupplevd stress än icke-IBS-patienterna hade en andel förhållandevis låga nivåer av kortisol i håret. I delstudie II undersökte vi hur samsjuklighet i form av totalt antal registrerade diagnoser, samt vissa specifika diagnoser och psykologiska aspekter samt magtarmsymtom, påverkade självskattad hälsa och primärvårdskonsumtion hos IBS- och icke-IBS-patienterna. I båda grupperna var lägre ålder, större känsla av sammanhang, och lägre grad av buksmärta oberoende associerat med bättre självskattad hälsa. Hos IBS-patienterna fann vi närmast en femfaldigt ökad risk att ha många kontakter med primärvården vid samtidigt diagnostiserad sömnstörning. Den kopplingen sågs inte hos patienterna utan IBS. Däremot var det totala antalet diagnoser också en faktor av betydelse för vårdkonsumtionen i båda grupperna. I delstudie III belyste vi fatigue och eventuella kopplingar till nivåer av en proinflammatorisk signalmolekyl (TNF-α) samt till självrapporterade missförhållanden under uppväxten hos IBS patienter och friska kontroller. Med funktionell magnetkameraundersökning av hjärnan undersökte vi också kopplingen mellan aktivitetsmönster i områden som är relaterade till emotionella, kognitiva och motivationsrelaterade aspekter av fatigue hos IBS patienter och friska kontroller. Vi fann att IBS-patienterna upplevde fyrfaldigt mer påverkan av fatigue på sina dagliga liv än kontrollerna. Den ökade trötthetsupplevelsen var också relaterad till högre nivåer av TNF-α i blodet hos IBS-patienterna, liksom i viss mån till missförhållanden under uppväxten. Slutligen såg vi att högre grad av upplevd fatigue hos IBS-patienterna ledde till minskad samtida aktivitet (konnektivitet) i de undersökta hjärnområdena som representerade de motivationsrelaterade och kognitiva aspekterna av trötthetsupplevelsen. Någon liknande koppling mellan TNF-α och förändringar i hjärnaktiviteten sågs ej. Sammanfattningsvis pekar våra resultat gällande samsjuklighet, självskattad hälsa, psykosociala faktorer samt fatigue på att IBS-patienterna är en sårbar patientgrupp som bör uppmärksammas. Våra resultat från delstudie I pekar vidare mot att stressaxeln kan vara uttröttad hos vissa IBS-patienter. Enligt resultaten i delstudie II är känsla av sammanhang jämte buksmärta faktorer, som bör tas i beaktande för att om möjligt uppnå bättre självskattad hälsa både hos IBS- och andra primärvårdspatienter. Vidare synes IBS-patienternas förhållandevis stora vårdkonsumtion vara särskilt avhängig av samtidig sömnstörning, vilket också det torde vara av betydelse i klinisk praxis och av intresse för framtida forskning. Delstudie III, visar ett samband mellan fatigue, som bisymtom vid IBS, och så väl barndomstrauman som möjlig immunaktivering. Vi fann även att IBS patienter som upplevde stor påverkan av fatigue på sina dagliga liv, också hade en minskad konnektivitet mellan hjärnstrukturer av betydelse för kognition och motivation.

  bio psycho social assessment: Eating Disorders Ignacio Jáuregui Lobera, 2017-02-01 Despite the relevance of eating disorders in the past years, the pure core of these mental disorders remains unknown. In this regard, it is not a surprise that the biopsychosocial model is the best way to go forward in order to understand and to improve the different approaches, biological (mainly neurobiological), psychological, and social, in managing these disorders. Eating disorders are frequent pathologies, many times severe and often devastating for patients and their families. Biological, psychological, and social factors are always involved in these disorders, and knowledge about the influence of these factors helps us to better understand eating disorders. This book includes different studies about main topics of eating disorders and is useful for psychologists, doctors and others interested in this disorder.

  bio psycho social assessment: Psychiatry Reborn: Biopsychosocial psychiatry in modern medicine Will Davies, Julian Savalescu, Rebecca Roache, J. Pierre Loebel, 2020-10-21 Psychiatry Reborn: Biopsychosocial Psychiatry in Modern Medicine is a comprehensive collection of essays by leading experts in the field, and provides a timely reassessment of the biopsychosocial approach in psychiatry. Spanning the sciences and philosophy of psychiatry, the essays offer complementary perspectives on the ever more urgent importance of the biopsychosocial approach to modern medicine. The collection brings together ideas from the series of Loebel Lectures by world leaders in the field of psychiatry and associated Workshops at the University of Oxford, including revised versions of the Lectures themselves, and a wide range of related commentaries and position pieces. With contributions from psychiatry, psychology, neuroscience, and philosophy, the book provides the most comprehensive account to date of the interplay between biological, psychological, and social factors in mental health and their ethical dimensions. The 23 chapters of this multi-authored book review the history and place of the biopsychosocial model in medicine, and explore its strengths and shortcomings. In particular, it considers how understanding this interplay might lead to more effective treatments for mental health disorders, as developments in genomic and neurobiological medicine challenge traditional conceptions and approaches to the research and treatment of mental health disorders. The book explores the challenges and rewards of developing diagnostic tools and clinical interventions that take account of the inextricably intertwined bio-psycho-social domains, and the ethical implications of the conceptualization. It concludes with chapters drawing together the book's range of expertise to propose a best conception of the model, and how it might be adopted going forward in an age of exponentially increasing technological advances and of integrated/collaborative care. The volume is intended to present the BPS model as it stands today in the academy, the lab, and the clinic, and to start to address the challenges and potential that the model has for each.

  bio psycho social assessment: Clinical Social Work Practice in Behavioral Mental Health Roberta G. Sands, 2001 This book provides an in-depth and very modern approach to clinical social work with clients in mental health settings. This is a revision of a book originally titled Clinical Social Work Practice in Community Mental Health. The community mental health approach is now dated, and this revision features behavioral mental health, which is a newer and postmodern approach. The postmodern perspective is client-oriented, and helps the practitioner to be aware of underlying biases. This perspective is explained in Chapter 1 and is included in every chapter by featuring clients' voices, particularly at the beginning and end of the chapters. Important new topics include managed care and measurement of outcomes, both of which are woven throughout and featured in Chapters 1, 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, and 13. For social work practitioners specializing in mental health.

  bio psycho social assessment: Handbook of Complex Occupational Disability Claims Izabela Z. Schultz, Robert J. Gatchel, 2006-06-14 Chronic back and neck pain. Whiplash. Fibromyalgia. Carpal tunnel syndrome. Intractable headaches. Depression. Anxiety and posttraumatic stress. Concussion. More than ever, the term workplace disabilities is synonymous with greater clinical and case management complexity and escalating personal, social, occupational and economic cost. Complex illnesses and injuries that defy a traditional medical management model continue to baffle medical, mental health, rehabilitation, compensation, corporate, and legal professionals despite new advances in diagnosis, prevention, and rehabilitation. The Handbook of Complex Occupational Disability Claims: Early Risk Identification, Intervention and Prevention cuts through the confusion by integrating current theories and findings into a state-of-the-art tool for critical thinking, decision making, and effective practice. A book that synthesizes so many diverse viewpoints has the potential to influence both policy and practice across disciplines and cut through politicization of these still poorly understood conditions with evidence. The Handbook is important reading for all clinicians, professionals, and members of rehabilitation and disability management teams, across healthcare, occupational and compensation settings.
  bio psycho social assessment: Handbook of Pain and Palliative Care Rhonda J. Moore, 2019-06-12 This comprehensive revision of the invaluable reference presents a rigorous survey of pain and palliative care phenomena across the lifespan and across disciplines.

  bio psycho social assessment: The Biopsychosocial Approach Richard M. Frankel, Timothy E. Quill, Susan H. McDaniel, 2003 For thousands of years, Western culture has dichotomized science and art, empiricism and subjective experience, and biology and psychology. In contrast with the prevailing view in philosophy, neuroscience, and literary criticism, George Engel, an internist and practicing physician, published a paper in the journal Science in 1977 entitled The Need for a New Medical Model: A Challenge for Biomedicine. In the context of clinical medicine, Engel made the deceptively simple observation that actions at the biological, psychological, and social level are dynamically interrelated and that these relationships affect both the process and outcomes of care. The biopsychosocial perspective involves an appreciation that disease and illness do not manifest themselves only in terms of pathophysiology, but also may simultaneously affect many different levels of functioning, from cellular to organ system to person to family to society. This model provides a broader understanding of disease processes as encompassing multiple levels of functioning including the effect of the physician-patient relationship. This book, which contains Engel's seminal article, looks at the continuing relevance of his work and the biopsychosocial model as it is applied to clinical practice, research, and education and administration. Contributors include: Thomas Inui, Richard Frankel, Timothy Quill, Susan McDaniel, Ronald Epstein, Peter LeRoux, Diane Morse, Anthony Suchman, Geoffrey Williams, Frank deGruy, Robert Ader, Thomas Campbell, Edward Deci, Moira Stewart, Elaine Dannefer, Edward Hundert, Lindsey Henson, Robert Smith, Kurt Fritzsche, Manfred Cierpka, Michael Wirsching, Howard Beckman, and Theodore Brown.

  bio-psycho-social assessment: The Biopsychosocial Model of Health and Disease Derek Bolton, Grant Gillett, 2019-03-28 This open access book is a systematic update of the philosophical and scientific foundations of the biopsychosocial model of health, disease and healthcare. First proposed by George Engel 40 years ago, the Biopsychosocial Model is much cited in healthcare settings worldwide, but has been increasingly criticised for being vague, lacking in content, and in need of reworking in the light of recent developments. The book confronts the rapid changes to psychological science, neuroscience, healthcare, and philosophy that have occurred since the model was first proposed and addresses key issues such as the model’s scientific basis, clinical utility, and philosophical coherence. The authors conceptualise biology and the psychosocial as in the same ontological space, interlinked by systems of communication-based regulatory control which constitute a new kind of causation. These are distinguished from physical and chemical laws, most clearly because they can break down, thus providing the basis for difference between health and disease. This work offers an urgent update to the model’s scientific and philosophical foundations, providing a new and coherent account of causal interactions between the biological, the psychological and social.

  bio-psycho-social assessment: The Rise and Fall of the Biopsychosocial Model S. Nassir Ghaemi, 2010-01-01 2010 Outstanding Academic Title, Choice Magazine This is the first book-length historical critique of psychiatry’s mainstream ideology, the biopsychosocial (BPS) model. Developed in the twentieth century as an outgrowth of psychosomatic medicine, the biopsychosocial model is seen as an antidote to the constraints of the medical model of psychiatry. Nassir Ghaemi details the origins and evolution of the BPS model and explains how, where, and why it fails to live up to its promises. He analyzes the works of its founders, George Engel and Roy Grinker Sr., traces its rise in acceptance, and discusses its relation to the thought of William Osler and Karl Jaspers. In assessing the biopsychosocial model, Ghaemi provides a philosophically grounded evaluation of the concept of mental illness and the relation between evidence-based medicine and psychiatry. He argues that psychiatry's conceptual core is eclecticism, which in the face of too much freedom paradoxically leads many of its adherents to enact their own dogmas. Throughout, he makes the case for a new paradigm of medical humanism and method-based psychiatry that is consistent with modern science while incorporating humanistic aspects of the art of medicine. Ghaemi shows how the historical role of the BPS model as a reaction to biomedical reductionism is coming to an end and urges colleagues in the field to embrace other, less-eclectic perspectives.

  bio-psycho-social assessment: Acceleration of the Biopsychosocial Model in Public Health Taukeni, Simon George, 2023-02-20 It is generally well-established that the biomedical model is informed on the assumption that the occurrence of the disease is the result of biological molecules inside the body. This is seen in the view of the biopsychosocial model that the biomedical model is excluding the importance of psychological, social, economic, environmental, spiritual, and behavioral dimensions of the illness. It is essential to create better awareness to accelerate the use of the biopsychosocial model—focusing on the individual as a whole rather than the illness alone. Acceleration of the Biopsychosocial Model in Public Health accelerates the inclusion of the biopsychosocial model in the public health sector in order to achieve universal health coverage. It provides a better understanding of the role of various factors, such as psychological, social, emotional, economic, and behavioral, that are responsible for the development of diseases in order to develop comprehensive prevention and intervention measures. Covering topics such as psychological well-being, public health awareness, and system dynamics, this premier reference source is an excellent resource for public health officials, health therapists, health educators, health psychologists, occupational therapists, palliative care providers, community healthcare providers, hospital administrators, health professionals, medical students, medical libraries, researchers, and academicians.

  bio-psycho-social assessment: Understanding Racial and Ethnic Differences in Health in Late Life National Research Council, Division of Behavioral and Social Sciences and Education, Committee on Population, Panel on Race, Ethnicity, and Health in Later Life, 2004-09-08 As the population of older Americans grows, it is becoming more racially and ethnically diverse. Differences in health by racial and ethnic status could be increasingly consequential for health policy and programs. Such differences are not simply a matter of education or ability to pay for health care. For instance, Asian Americans and Hispanics appear to be in better health, on a number of indicators, than White Americans, despite, on average, lower socioeconomic status. The reasons are complex, including possible roles for such factors as selective migration, risk behaviors, exposure to various stressors, patient attitudes, and geographic variation in health care. This volume, produced by a multidisciplinary panel, considers such possible explanations for racial and ethnic health differentials within an integrated framework. It provides a concise summary of available research and lays out a research agenda to address the many uncertainties in current knowledge. It recommends, for instance, looking at health differentials across the life course and deciphering the links between factors presumably producing differentials and biopsychosocial mechanisms that lead to impaired health.

  bio-psycho-social assessment: Exploring the Biopsychosocial Model in Irritable Bowel Syndrome Anna-Karin Norlin, 2020-10-09 Background Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common, chronic, relapsing, and sometimes disabling, symptombased disorder of gut brain interactions. It has got a female predominance and occurs in all ages, with a slight decrease among elderly. The IBS symptoms can affect everyday work and social life in addition to an increased use of health care resources. Most IBS patients are diagnosed and helped in primary health care (PHC). For many patients, available treatment is insufficient. It is known that both extraintestinal symptoms such as fatigue, as well as comorbidities such as mood disorders, chronic pain syndromes, and insomnia contribute to the illness burden, often to a larger extent than the gastrointestinal symptoms as such. Even though the pathophysiology of IBS is not completely known, it is now conceptualized as a disorder of altered brain-gut interactions, where a biopsychosocial model helps in understanding the symptoms. Exposure to stress is thought to play an important role overall in the pathology of IBS, as well as immune activation at least in a subgroup of patients. This thesis aimed to gain deeper understanding of the biopsychosocial mechanisms of IBS and its associations with stress, comorbidities, and fatigue. Methods Study I and II are based on the Twin cities IBS study population, which included IBS patients and a control group of other patients without gastrointestinal complaints from ten PHC centres in the county of Östergötland. Alongside demographics, psychosocial questionnaires and a GI symptom diary, it included analyses of hair cortisol concentrations (HCC) evaluated in study I, and data on self-rated health as well as diagnoses of comorbidities, and number of health care contacts from a regional registry, evaluated for study II. Study III of this thesis is based on the Brain-Gut study with a population of secondary care IBS patients, and healthy controls (HC). It included self-rated measures of fatigue impact on the daily life and early adverse life events, as well as measures of circulating TNF-α, and analyses of resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging of brain areas within a mesocorticolimbic circuitry of known relevance for fatigue. Results Study I: Perceived stress was higher in the IBS group while a considerable portion of IBS patients had low levels of HCC. No association between perceived stress and HCC was seen in either group. Study II: IBS patients had lower self-rated health and more PHC utilization than the non-IBS patients. Good self-rated health was independently associated with younger age, higher sense of coherence and less gastrointestinal pain in both groups. In IBS, PHC utilization was associated with comorbidities in general, and sleep disorders in particular. Study III: Fatigue impact on daily life, and TNF- α were higher in IBS patients than in HC. In IBS, further an association was seen between fatigue impact on the one hand, and TNF- α, emotional abuse in childhood, as well as altered mesocorticolimbic connectivity on the other. Conclusion In conclusion this thesis firstly emphasizes that IBS patients in many ways, including health outcomes, consists a vulnerable group of PHC patients. We add evidence for a possible suppression of the stress response system in a substantial portion of IBS patients. Further, comorbid sleep disorders seem to be particularly associated with excess PHC utilization in IBS and could possibly be a target for treatment interventions. Moreover, alongside treating gastrointestinal pain, efforts to improve the individuals’ sense of coherence could be one way to achieve better self-rated health in both IBS and non-IBS patients. Finally, we suggest that fatigue in IBS is associated with immune activation, central alterations and to some extend also previous childhood trauma. IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) är en vanlig, kronisk tarmsjukdom med återkommande symtom av buksmärta tillsammans med ändrade avföringsvanor. Den drabbar cirka 10% av befolkningen och är vanligast hos kvinnor samt något mindre vanlig hos äldre. För många innebär IBS ett stort lidande, försämrad livskvalitet och ökad sjukvårdskonsumtion. De flesta IBS-patienter tas om hand i primärvården. Nuvarande, tillgänglig behandling är ofta otillräcklig. En del IBS-patienter har också andra symtom, så som muskelsmärta och uttalad trötthet, som inte går över vid vila, så kallad fatigue. Det är också vanligt förekommande med andra sjukdomstillstånd såsom depression och andra smärtsyndrom. Det är visat att den typen av symtom och samsjuklighet många gånger är värre för IBS-patienten än de faktiska magtarmsymptomen. Numera tror man att symtomen vid IBS beror på störningar i det ömsesidiga samspelet mellan tarm och hjärna, men de bakomliggande mekanismerna är inte helt klarlagda. För att förstå IBS-patientens symtom är en så kallad biopsykosocial förklaringsmodell till stor hjälp, då symtomen inte bara beror av biologiska mekanismer, utan individens sociala miljö samt psykologiska reaktioner spelar också stor roll. Stress är centralt för så väl utveckling av, som symtom vid IBS och även för förståelsen av den biopsykosociala förklaringsmodellen generellt. Tidigare forskning visar också att immunsystemet är påverkat hos åtminstone en andel av IBS-patienterna. Syftet med den här avhandlingen var att nå en djupare förståelse av biopsykosociala mekanismer vid IBS med fokus på stress, samsjuklighet och fatigue. Delstudie I och II jämförde IBS-patienter och en kontrollgrupp med andra primärvårdspatienter, utan magtarmsymtom på 10 vårdcentraler i Östergötland. Delstudie III undersökte IBS-patienter på magtarmkliniken i Linköping i jämförelse med friska kontroller. I delstudie I undersökte vi kortisol i hår-nivåer, som ett mått på hur stresshormonnivåerna varit över tid. Trots att IBS-patienterna som grupp beskrev en större självupplevd stress än icke-IBS-patienterna hade en andel förhållandevis låga nivåer av kortisol i håret. I delstudie II undersökte vi hur samsjuklighet i form av totalt antal registrerade diagnoser, samt vissa specifika diagnoser och psykologiska aspekter samt magtarmsymtom, påverkade självskattad hälsa och primärvårdskonsumtion hos IBS- och icke-IBS-patienterna. I båda grupperna var lägre ålder, större känsla av sammanhang, och lägre grad av buksmärta oberoende associerat med bättre självskattad hälsa. Hos IBS-patienterna fann vi närmast en femfaldigt ökad risk att ha många kontakter med primärvården vid samtidigt diagnostiserad sömnstörning. Den kopplingen sågs inte hos patienterna utan IBS. Däremot var det totala antalet diagnoser också en faktor av betydelse för vårdkonsumtionen i båda grupperna. I delstudie III belyste vi fatigue och eventuella kopplingar till nivåer av en proinflammatorisk signalmolekyl (TNF-α) samt till självrapporterade missförhållanden under uppväxten hos IBS patienter och friska kontroller. Med funktionell magnetkameraundersökning av hjärnan undersökte vi också kopplingen mellan aktivitetsmönster i områden som är relaterade till emotionella, kognitiva och motivationsrelaterade aspekter av fatigue hos IBS patienter och friska kontroller. Vi fann att IBS-patienterna upplevde fyrfaldigt mer påverkan av fatigue på sina dagliga liv än kontrollerna. Den ökade trötthetsupplevelsen var också relaterad till högre nivåer av TNF-α i blodet hos IBS-patienterna, liksom i viss mån till missförhållanden under uppväxten. Slutligen såg vi att högre grad av upplevd fatigue hos IBS-patienterna ledde till minskad samtida aktivitet (konnektivitet) i de undersökta hjärnområdena som representerade de motivationsrelaterade och kognitiva aspekterna av trötthetsupplevelsen. Någon liknande koppling mellan TNF-α och förändringar i hjärnaktiviteten sågs ej. Sammanfattningsvis pekar våra resultat gällande samsjuklighet, självskattad hälsa, psykosociala faktorer samt fatigue på att IBS-patienterna är en sårbar patientgrupp som bör uppmärksammas. Våra resultat från delstudie I pekar vidare mot att stressaxeln kan vara uttröttad hos vissa IBS-patienter. Enligt resultaten i delstudie II är känsla av sammanhang jämte buksmärta faktorer, som bör tas i beaktande för att om möjligt uppnå bättre självskattad hälsa både hos IBS- och andra primärvårdspatienter. Vidare synes IBS-patienternas förhållandevis stora vårdkonsumtion vara särskilt avhängig av samtidig sömnstörning, vilket också det torde vara av betydelse i klinisk praxis och av intresse för framtida forskning. Delstudie III, visar ett samband mellan fatigue, som bisymtom vid IBS, och så väl barndomstrauman som möjlig immunaktivering. Vi fann även att IBS patienter som upplevde stor påverkan av fatigue på sina dagliga liv, också hade en minskad konnektivitet mellan hjärnstrukturer av betydelse för kognition och motivation.

In the context of clinical medicine, Engel made the deceptively simple observation that actions at the biological, psychological, and social level are dynamically interrelated and that these relationships affect both the process and outcomes of care. The biopsychosocial perspective involves an appreciation that disease and illness do not manifest themselves only in terms of pathophysiology, but also may simultaneously affect many different levels of functioning, from cellular to organ system to person to family to society. This model provides a broader understanding of disease processes as encompassing multiple levels of functioning including the effect of the physician-patient relationship. This book, which contains Engel's seminal article, looks at the continuing relevance of his work and the biopsychosocial model as it is applied to clinical practice, research, and education and administration. Contributors include: Thomas Inui, Richard Frankel, Timothy Quill, Susan McDaniel, Ronald Epstein, Peter LeRoux, Diane Morse, Anthony Suchman, Geoffrey Williams, Frank deGruy, Robert Ader, Thomas Campbell, Edward Deci, Moira Stewart, Elaine Dannefer, Edward Hundert, Lindsey Henson, Robert Smith, Kurt Fritzsche, Manfred Cierpka, Michael Wirsching, Howard Beckman, and Theodore Brown.

  bio-psycho-social assessment: Juvenile Delinquency and Disability Kristin C. Thompson, Richard J. Morris, 2016-04-12 This book discusses the relationship between juvenile disability and delinquency, including characteristics of youth with disabilities, how disability relates to delinquency, and its impact during a youth’s involvement with the juvenile justice system. The book details the relationship between developmental, cognitive, psychological, and educational disorders—specific conditions including ADHD, bipolar disorder, and autism spectrum disorder—and delinquency in light of both their overrepresentation among youth offenders and the uninformed handling of these youth within the court system. Case studies illustrate the complexities in the processing and placement of these youth offenders, as well as highlight the barriers to delinquent youth receiving appropriate treatment, and their increased risk of reoffending. From this robust knowledge base, the authors make expert recommendations for improving the juvenile justice system at the practice and policy levels to better serve this population. This authoritative volume: • Identifies characteristics and risk factors associated with juvenile delinquency. • Reviews evidence relating developmental, mental health, and other disorders to juvenile offending. • Describes the implications of disabilities in key areas such as offending, risk assessment, competency, and outcomes. • Examines the role of disability law in the juvenile justice system. • Offers guidelines for professionals to use this knowledge in their work. Juvenile Delinquency and Disability is an essential resource for researchers, scientist-practitioners, and graduate students in clinical, counseling, and school psychology, criminology and criminal justice, child psychiatry, educational policy and politics, developmental psychology, and social work.

  bio-psycho-social assessment: Eating Disorders Ignacio Jáuregui Lobera, 2017-02-01 Despite the relevance of eating disorders in the past years, the pure core of these mental disorders remains unknown. In this regard, it is not a surprise that the biopsychosocial model is the best way to go forward in order to understand and to improve the different approaches, biological (mainly neurobiological), psychological, and social, in managing these disorders. Eating disorders are frequent pathologies, many times severe and often devastating for patients and their families. Biological, psychological, and social factors are always involved in these disorders, and knowledge about the influence of these factors helps us to better understand eating disorders. This book includes different studies about main topics of eating disorders and is useful for psychologists, doctors and others interested in this disorder.

  bio-psycho-social assessment: Psychiatry Reborn: Biopsychosocial psychiatry in modern medicine Will Davies, Julian Savalescu, Rebecca Roache, J. Pierre Loebel, 2020-10-21 Psychiatry Reborn: Biopsychosocial Psychiatry in Modern Medicine is a comprehensive collection of essays by leading experts in the field, and provides a timely reassessment of the biopsychosocial approach in psychiatry. Spanning the sciences and philosophy of psychiatry, the essays offer complementary perspectives on the ever more urgent importance of the biopsychosocial approach to modern medicine. The collection brings together ideas from the series of Loebel Lectures by world leaders in the field of psychiatry and associated Workshops at the University of Oxford, including revised versions of the Lectures themselves, and a wide range of related commentaries and position pieces. With contributions from psychiatry, psychology, neuroscience, and philosophy, the book provides the most comprehensive account to date of the interplay between biological, psychological, and social factors in mental health and their ethical dimensions. The 23 chapters of this multi-authored book review the history and place of the biopsychosocial model in medicine, and explore its strengths and shortcomings. In particular, it considers how understanding this interplay might lead to more effective treatments for mental health disorders, as developments in genomic and neurobiological medicine challenge traditional conceptions and approaches to the research and treatment of mental health disorders. The book explores the challenges and rewards of developing diagnostic tools and clinical interventions that take account of the inextricably intertwined bio-psycho-social domains, and the ethical implications of the conceptualization. It concludes with chapters drawing together the book's range of expertise to propose a best conception of the model, and how it might be adopted going forward in an age of exponentially increasing technological advances and of integrated/collaborative care. The volume is intended to present the BPS model as it stands today in the academy, the lab, and the clinic, and to start to address the challenges and potential that the model has for each.

  bio-psycho-social assessment: Clinical Social Work Practice in Behavioral Mental Health Roberta G. Sands, 2001 This book provides an in-depth and very modern approach to clinical social work with clients in mental health settings. This is a revision of a book originally titled Clinical Social Work Practice in Community Mental Health. The community mental health approach is now dated, and this revision features behavioral mental health, which is a newer and postmodern approach. The postmodern perspective is client-oriented, and helps the practitioner to be aware of underlying biases. This perspective is explained in Chapter 1 and is included in every chapter by featuring clients' voices, particularly at the beginning and end of the chapters. Important new topics include managed care and measurement of outcomes, both of which are woven throughout and featured in Chapters 1, 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, and 13. For social work practitioners specializing in mental health.
  bio-psycho-social assessment: The Perspectives of Psychiatry Paul R. McHugh, Phillip R. Slavney, 1998-11-29 Substantially revised to include a wealth of new material, the second edition of this highly acclaimed work provides a concise, coherent introduction that brings structure to an increasingly fragmented and amorphous discipline. Paul R. McHugh and Phillip R. Slavney offer an approach that emphasizes psychiatry's unifying concepts while accommodating its diversity. Recognizing that there may never be a single, all-encompassing theory, the book distills psychiatric practice into four explanatory methods: diseases, dimensions of personality, goal-directed behaviors, and life stories. These perspectives, argue the authors, underlie the principles and practice of all psychiatry. With an understanding of these fundamental methods, readers will be equipped to organize and evaluate psychiatric information and to develop a confident approach to practice and research.
