Structured daily activities

Support and work with other services towards “an integration of vocational and clinical services at the level of service delivery”
(Frost et al, 2002)
Optimistic symptom control and reduce side effect burden
Examples: Manage mood instability in bipolar Ameliorate effects of cognitive dysfunction in schizophrenia

Symptom control
Optimal pharmacotherapy
Broader psychosocial parameters
Treatment Aims

Relapse rates high even if taking meds
Different approaches:
• Psychoeducation
• Family focused therapy (Miklowitz et al, 2000)
• CBT (Lam et al, 2003, 2005; Scott et al, 2006)
• IPSRT (Frank et al, 1999)
• Integrated models (Bauer et al, 2006; Simon et al, 2006)
• Collaborative Therapy (Berk, Berk & Castle, 2005)
- individual/group (Colom et al, 2003)

Study Objectives
Primary Goals: To develop a group-based intervention and relapse
prevention package to assist consumers to manage their bipolar disorder.
To integrate the intervention using the Collaborative Therapy Framework and implement the project in a range of service settings.
To evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention using a RCT.
![Page 16: David Castle- Work and Mental Illness](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042720/568c38931a28ab02359f6028/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Challenges:
To develop an intervention that is effective for “real-world” patients
To ensure the intervention is sustainable beyond the life of the research project.

Cognition in Schizophrenia: Can We Fix It?

What are the Cognitive Deficits in Schizophrenia?
Mild Moderate Severe
Perceptual skills Distractability Executive functioning
Delayed recognition memory
Memory and working memory
Verbal fluency
Verbal and full scale IQ Delayed recall Motor speed
(Wykes & Castle, 2003)
![Page 34: David Castle- Work and Mental Illness](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042720/568c38931a28ab02359f6028/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
optimal treatment of positive symptoms important
some older (typical) antipsychotics seem to make cognition worse
benzodiazepines and anticholinergics can make cognition worse
Do Medications ImproveCognitive Impairment?
![Page 35: David Castle- Work and Mental Illness](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042720/568c38931a28ab02359f6028/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
early studies suggested “yes”, but confounded by effect of halting typicals (EPSE etc.)
clozapine seems to improve attention and verbal fluency but has less effect on working memory
Do Atypical AntipsychoticsHelp Cognition?
![Page 36: David Castle- Work and Mental Illness](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042720/568c38931a28ab02359f6028/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
400 patients < 5 yrs illness
Random assignment to: - Olanzapine (mean 12mg)
- Quetiapine (mean 500mg)
- Risperidone (mean 2.5mg)
400 patients started; 221 completed assessment at 12 weeks; only 81 completed neuropsychology tests at 52 weeks
(Keefe et al, 2007)
52 Week Trial of Olanzapine vs Risperidone vs Quetiapine (1)

areas of improvement
verbal fluency (especially Quetiapine)
letter-number sequencing
digit symbol
continuous performance task
improvements correlated modestly with vocational & social enhancement, but not significant after controlling for symptom improvement
(Keefe et al, 2007)
52 Week Trial of Olanzapine vs Risperidone vs Quetiapine (3)
![Page 39: David Castle- Work and Mental Illness](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042720/568c38931a28ab02359f6028/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Olanzapine, quetiapine, and risperidone all produced significant improvements in neurocognition in early psychosis patients. Although cognitive improvements were modest, their clinical importance was suggested by relationships with improvements in functional outcome.
BUT not corrected for multiple comparisons similar effect size seen due to practice effects alone massive subject attrition correlates with functional outcomes very modest & disappear after
controlling for symptom change
(Keefe et al, 2007)
Conclusions(Keefe et al, 2007)
![Page 40: David Castle- Work and Mental Illness](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042720/568c38931a28ab02359f6028/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
“meaningful cognitive improvements will probably not come from second-generation antipsychotics”
“there was no clear procognitive effect in this study”
“the findings leave us feeling a little smarter and a lot more humble”
(Michael F Green, 2007)
Conclusions(Michael F Green, 2007)
![Page 41: David Castle- Work and Mental Illness](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042720/568c38931a28ab02359f6028/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
(Michael F Green, 2007)
Conclusions(Michael F Green, 2007)
So, Green (2007) suggests:
(i) We need to look at other potential cognitive enhancing drugs; and
(ii) we need to consider “new non-pharmacological interventions that specifically target cognition”
