Le trouble anxiété de séparation (TAS) représente environ la moitié de l’ensemble des troubles anxieux
(Cartwright-Harton et al, 2006). La plupart des troubles anxieux pédiatriques
présentent les mêmes critères diagnostics que chez l’adulte à l’exception du TAS,
actuellement class...é dans le DSM et la CIM au sein des troubles habituellement
diagnostiqués dans la prime enfance, l’enfance ou l’adolescence (Krain et al, 2007).more

The way we talk about global issues affects how people think, feel and react to them. Recognising that language has the power to create social change, we have produced this guide with the inten-tion of setting out a different approach to communicating global issues—one that replaces the nar-rative... of development, aid and charity, with one of global justice and solidarity. The work presented here will continue to be developed over time as we continue to research and test these messages. more
Q7: What is the effectiveness, safety and role of pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions, within non- specialist health care for children with a diagnosis of Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)?
The Global Movement for Mental Health has brought renewed attention to the neglect of people with mental illness within health policy worldwide. The maltreatment of the mentally ill in many low-income countries is widely reported within psychiatric hospitals, informal healing centres, and family hom...es. International agencies have called for the development of legislation and policy to address these abuses. However such initiatives exemplify a top-down approach to promoting human rights which historically has had limited impact at the level of those living with mental illness and their families.more
The Asia-Pacific Community Mental Health Development (APCMHD) project has been established in 2005 to explore diverse leading models or approaches to community mental health service delivery in the Asia-Pacific region. The objective is to illustrate and promote best practice in mental health care in... the community through use of information exchange, current evidence and practical experience in the region. more
Mental health problem is one of the growing major public health issues in the Asia Pacific region. It contributes to the high number of Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALYs), morbidity and mortality in the region. It is expected that leading mental health problems will occur in the low-and middle-i...ncome countries (LMICs) and majority of the countries which comes under this category are in the Asia Pacific region. In addition, mental health problem hamper the achievement of Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), particularly MDG 1, MDG 4 and MDG 5. The most common mental health problems in the region are depression, anxiety, posttraumatic stress disorder, suicidal behaviour and substance abuse disorder. Several modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors were identified for the cause of these major mental health issues. Interventions, programmes and policies need to be designed in order to curb mental health problems at all levels. more
In the last quarter century, several projects emerged to reform mental health services in Latin American and Caribbean countries. Some did not survive the difficulties that inevitably arise in processes of change, and ended up disappearing before the intended changes could be introduced. Others, how...ever, as shown in this publication, were able to overcome difficulties and meet intended objectives, effectively transforming the structure and quality of services. All these projects, including the many that did not survive, were part of one of the richest experiences in the transformation of mental health care worldwide - the experience of mental health reform in Latin America and the Caribbeanmore
Haiti, one of the poorest countries in the world, was devastated by an earthquake in 2010. The disaster uncovered the realities of a non-existent mental health care system with only ten psychiatrists nationwide. Attempts were made to assess the increased prevalence of mental illness, likely due to t...he trauma to which many were exposed. Several interventions were carried out with aims to integrate mental health into primary health care services. The interplay between socio-cultural beliefs and health (both mental and physical) in Haiti has been widely commented upon by both foreign aid and local caregivers. Observations frequently highlight barriers to the willingness of patients to seek care and to their acceptance of biomedicine over traditional Vodou beliefs. The perception of Haitian beliefs as barriers to the availability and acceptance of mental health care has intensified the difficulty in providing effective recommendations and interventions both before and after the earthquake. Argued in this review is the importance of considering the interactions between socio-cultural beliefs and mental health when developing models for the prevention, screening, classification and management of mental illness in Haiti. These interactions, especially relevant in mental health care and post-disaster contexts, need to be acknowledged in any healthcare setting. The successes and failures of Haiti’s situation provide an example for global consideration.more
In den letzten Jahren hat die öffentliche Debatte über Kinderschutzfragen zu entscheidenden Veränderungen - sowohl in der Öffentlichkeit wie in der Fachdebatte in Deutschland - geführt. Anfang 2012 trat ein neues Bundeskinderschutzgesetz in Kraft; der Aufarbeitungsprozess nach dem Missbrauchssk...andal, der Deutschland ab Anfang 2010 in einer breiteren öffentlichen Diskussion erschüttert hat, hat mit dem Abschluss der Arbeit der Unabhängigen Beauftragten zur Aufarbeitung des sexüllen Kindesmissbrauchs, der ehemaligen Bundesfamilienministerin Frau Dr. Christine Bergmann, und mit dem Abschlussbericht des Runden Tisches Ende 2011 eine Bestandsaufnahme abgeschlossen und eine Agenda für die weitere Arbeit der Umsetzung aufgestellt. Zu diesen zahlreichen zu bearbeitenden Punkten gehören auch ein hilfreicherer Umgang mit Betroffenen im Gesundheitswesen, eine bessere Diagnostik und Abklärung in Kinderschutzfällen, auch auf der medizinischen Seite. Verzögerungen bei der Implementation von Hilfe, Unterstützungsmaßnahmen und Therapien werden beklagt und Lotsenfunktionen in Bezug auf gesetzliche Ansprüche wie z.B. im Rahmen des Opferentschädigungsrechts werden vorgeschlagen. more
