{"title":"Identifying and treating catatonia in children with neurodevelopmental disorders: A case series.","authors":"Nadine Nejati, Selene Etches","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>Catatonia is a neuropsychiatric syndrome that is an increasingly recognized cause of acute behavioural changes in children and adolescents with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD). Literature suggests that catatonia can present differently in this population and can be missed due to diagnostic overshadowing. Catatonia is a treatable condition, and management strategies in children with NDD include benzodiazepines and electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). Untreated, it can cause significant morbidity including severe medical complications, and therefore timely recognition and management of catatonia in children and adolescents with NDD is essential. In this case series, we present three cases of children ages 7, 14, and 10, with diagnoses of autism spectrum disorder, Down syndrome, and Prader-Willi syndrome, respectively. All were admitted to a pediatric inpatient unit for acute behavioural regression. Each had symptoms consistent with catatonia, resulting in trials of benzodiazepine therapy with inadequate response, and were then treated with bilateral ECT. In all cases, marked improvement was noted after ECT, with no apparent adverse effects. The cases are used to highlight the nuances of diagnosis and management of catatonia in children and adolescents with NDD. This includes insights on how presentations of catatonia may differ in this population, challenges with the use of available diagnostic tools, and how these patients may respond differently to recommended treatments such as benzodiazepines. The case series aims to increase clinicians' awareness of pediatric catatonia when children and adolescents with NDD present with acute behavioural changes, and to encourage consideration of the full spectrum of treatments, including bilateral ECT.</p>","PeriodicalId":47053,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Canadian Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry","volume":"33 3","pages":"215-222"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11552672/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142628090","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Olanzapine is a second-generation atypical antipsychotic that has demonstrated benefit with weight gain in adults with anorexia nervosa (AN), although controlled research involving children and youth remains limited. In this commentary, the authors provide a brief history and review of research relating to olanzapine for the adjunctive treatment of children and adolescents with AN. Although the medication has been used for more than two decades, its mechanism of action remains incompletely understood and is likely multifactorial. Despite a paucity of research to guide clinical decision making, olanzapine prescription among youth with moderate to severe AN appears to be prevalent among eating disorder specialists in Canada. In addition to commenting on gaps and challenges related to controlled randomized research in this area, the authors reflect on factors likely contributing to olanzapine's adoption into clinical practice. Moving forward, it is critical that further research involving olanzapine for the adjunctive treatment of AN in youth be undertaken to better understand efficacy, appropriate indications for use, and safety profile.</p>","PeriodicalId":47053,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Canadian Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry","volume":"33 3","pages":"164-170"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11552675/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142628631","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The second (87% of included programs) was the integration of mental health services with a range of other services and supports (e.g., health, employment, housing). The third was the provision of land-based programming (in 34% of programs) such as camps or hunting. Such programs were framed as promoting wellness and healing and strengthening identity.
