The nature of personality disorder [Articles]
Adshead, G., Sarkar, J. Tue, 01 May 2012 00:05:43 -0700
The lack of a medically grounded approach to personality disorder and its management has led to its comparative neglect as a topic by many clinicians in the UK. In this article we present evidence that personality disorders are, like other mental disorders, the social manifestations of a pathological process. This process presents with characteristic clinical features that are developmental in nature. These cause disturbances in arousal, affect and reality testing that have an impact on interpersonal social functioning. Personality disorder may therefore be conceived of primarily as a socioemotional disability, not dissimilar to Axis I conditions.
Use of Health of the Nation Outcome Scales in psychiatry [Articles]
Delaffon, V., Anwar, Z., Noushad, F., Ahmed, A. S., Brugha, T. S. Tue, 01 May 2012 00:05:43 -0700
Routine outcome measures are essential to chart individual patient progress and evaluate models of service provision. The Health of the Nation Outcome Scales (HoNOS) were commissioned by the Royal College of Psychiatrists as a simple, brief measure for this purpose. It is one of the most widely used outcome measures in mental health services globally and has been translated into at least seven languages. Its use has broadened beyond its original purpose and in several countries collection of HoNOS data is mandatory. We review 585 potential articles to chart the development and evolution of HoNOS, as well as its psychometric properties, qualitative attributes and uses in clinical practice and research. The potential barriers to implementation of HoNOS on a wide scale are considered and its future role in evaluating effectiveness and benchmarking of services are discussed.
