Abstract

Background: Family members of people with borderline personality disorder (BPD) are seriously affected by the disease and it is common for them to ask for professional help. The main objective of this study is to assess, in an open clinical trial, a treatment protocol based on Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) strategies for relatives of individuals with BPD, compared to the same protocol plus a mindfulness component (DBT-M).

Method: The interventions were conducted in a sample of 108 relatives of 83 patients diagnosed with BPD from a Specialized Unit for Personality Disorders. Relatives and patients completed the assessment protocol before and after the intervention.

Results: Significant improvements in almost all the relevant variables tested were observed after the treatment in both the relatives and the patients. However, there were only statistically significant differences between the groups in the negative attitude towards the illness, where relatives in the DBT-M condition showed greater improvement than those in the DBT condition.

Conclusions: The results indicate that the intervention helps both patients and relatives to improve on key issues. It is essential to consider and offer support to the families of people with severe psychological disorders.

辩证行为治疗对边缘型人格障碍患者家庭成员干预的正念成分。

背景:边缘型人格障碍(BPD)患者的家庭成员受到该疾病的严重影响，他们寻求专业帮助是很常见的。本研究的主要目的是在一项开放的临床试验中，评估基于辩证行为疗法(DBT)策略的治疗方案对BPD患者亲属的影响，并将其与相同的方案加正念成分(DBT- m)进行比较。方法:对83名人格障碍专科诊断为BPD的患者的108名亲属进行干预。干预前后家属和患者均完成了评估方案。结果:治疗后，亲属和患者几乎所有相关变量均有显著改善。然而，两组之间的疾病消极态度差异仅具有统计学意义，其中DBT- m组的亲属比DBT组的亲属改善更大。结论:干预有助于患者和家属在关键问题上的改善。必须考虑并向严重心理障碍患者的家庭提供支持。
