    • French
    Un aspect crucial de la démarche diagnostique est d’examiner, parmi la multitude de troubles répertoriés dans le DSM-5-TR, ceux qui pourraient éventuellement expliquer le tableau clinique. Après avoir établi cette liste de possibilités, l’étape suivante consiste à recueillir des informations cliniques supplémentaires (à partir des antécédents personnels, d’informations provenant de l’entourage, du dossier médical, de l’évaluation de l’état mental et des analyses de laboratoire) afin de réduire les options au diagnostic différentiel le plus probable, ce qui deviendra alors le diagnostic positif menant à un premier projet thérapeutique.DSM-5-... Diagnostics différentiels aide ainsi les cliniciens et les étudiants souhaitant s’exercer à la démarche diagnostique à améliorer leurs compétences dans la formulation d’un diagnostic différentiel complet grâce à une variété d’approches permettant d’aborder la présentation sémiologique. Il comporte notamment uncadre diagnostique en six étapes, 30 arbres décisionnels pour établir le diagnostic différentiel des symptômes clés et 67 tableaux de diagnostic différentiel à utiliser une fois établi un diagnostic provisoire. En collaboration avec les auteurs du DSM-5-TR, experts en diagnostics et en évaluations psychiatriques, ce manuel a été entièrement mis à jour afin d’illustrer les évolutions du DSM-5-TR. Il inclut deux nouveaux arbres décisionnels (pour les symptômes dissociatifs et les comportements pathologiques répétitifs). Le manuel comporte également la classification du DSM-5-TR, ce qui facilite le codage et fournit une vue générale de tous les diagnostics devant être pris en compte lors de la formulation d’un diagnostic différentiel. Les index alphabétiques des arbres décisionnels et des tableaux dediagnostics différentiels aideront les lecteurs à trouver facilement les informations recherchées. Ce manuel est ainsi extrêmement utile aux étudiants et aux praticiens, expérimentés ou débutants.Michael B. First, M.D., est professeur de psychiatrie clinique à l’Université Columbia de New York, New York, États-Unis.Cet ouvrage a été publié dans sa version originale par l’American Psychiatric Association.

  • Psychothérapies des TOC et troubles apparentés

    • French
    Débutant le plus souvent avant l’âge de 25 ans, le TOC se manifeste souvent par des comportements répétitifs et non contrôlés mis en place par le patient pour compenser l’anxiété générée par les obsessions (pensées dérangeantes, répétitives et incontrôlables). Souvent caché par les patients (par honte ou culpabilité), le TOC est souvent diagnostiqué et pris en charge tardivement, générant souffrance et handicap chez les patients et pour l’entourage.Rédigé sous forme de fiches claires et concises, cet ouvrage propose d’abord un rappel des aspects épidémiologiques et cliniques du TOC et des troubles apparentés ainsi que les diagnostics différentiels et les comorbidités. Il aborde ensuite dans le détail les différents modèles physiopathologiques et les modalités de la prise en charge par les TCC, qui ont fait la preuve de leur efficacité. En expliquant les différentes étapes de la psychothérapie et ses outils (analyse fonctionnelle, restructuration cognitive, psychoéducation, défusion, exposition en imagination, exposition avec prévention de la réponse, etc.), l’ouvrage apporte les éléments pratiques au thérapeute pour construire un programme. Les autres traitements (médicamenteux et physiques) sont également rappelés.Illustré par des vignettes cliniques et accompagné de fiches d’évaluation et de psychoéducation en ligne, l’ouvrage présenteune synthèse complète, accessible et pratique qui donne aux praticiens (psychiatres, psychologues et psychothérapeutes) toutes les clés pour une meilleure prise en charge psycho-thérapeutique des patients souffrant de TOC.
