We suggest there is a need for greater conceptual clarity with regard to the nature of compassionate care and the meaning of person-centred medicine.

Here, I attempt to describe the psychological hurdles I’ve had to face in my recovery back to ‘full functioning’. The psychotic episode took its toll on me. After the acute phase, I was constantly encouraged by both my treating psychiatrist and my care coordinator to take as much time as I could resting and recuperating. This made complete sense at face value: after all, the last thing any of us wanted was for me to feel unduly stressed and to experience a relapse. Despite this, my natural urge was to get back to work post haste. This is a strange trait that most of my medical colleagues will be able to relate to - for some reason we have an inherent sense of duty to our vocation, even if it is at the expense of our own health. ....

Seven participants were interviewed about their perceptions of these experiences. Interviews were analysed using interpretative phenomenological analysis. Results Five superordinate themes resulted from the analysis: (1) avoidance of the diagnosis of schizophrenia; (2) stigma and diagnostic labels; (3) lack of understanding of schizophrenia; (4) managing stigma to maintain normality; (5) being 'schizophrenic'. These, together with their subthemes, highlighted avoidance of the term schizophrenia by participants and use of alternative terms by professionals, which limited opportunities for understanding the label and challenging associated stigma. Participants strived to maintain normality despite potential stigma. Clinical implications There is a need to address the process of giving a diagnosis as a phenomenon of consequence within its own terms. Implications relate to how professionals deliver and discuss the diagnosis of schizophrenia. </p>","PeriodicalId":90710,"journal":{"name":"Psychiatric bulletin (2014)","volume":"38 4","pages":"154-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1192/pb.bp.113.045179","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"32680910","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}

{"title":"Insulin coma therapy.","authors":"Alan Gibson","doi":"10.1192/pb.38.4.198","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1192/pb.38.4.198","url":null,"abstract":"Anyone working in an insulin unit in the 1950s would not recognise Dr Pimm’s account of the results of their treatment,1 or details of what it involved. The patients received daily and increasing doses of insulin, rising to many hundreds of units, for a 6-week period. The depth of the resulting hypoglycaemic coma was determined by the patient demonstrating a Babinski response over a period of 15 min. They were then revived by ingesting glucose. \u0000 \u0000I worked in the insulin unit at Newcastle General Hospital from 1956 to 1959, when I was senior registrar to Sir Martin Roth. Insulin treatment was reserved for people experiencing their first attack of schizophrenia, and from memory I would say half made a complete remission and another 25% improved. Nobody thought that we were effecting a cure, but remissions lasted about 2 years. One woman relapsed 9 years after her treatment. Of course there were dangers, but in those days the alternative was incarceration in a locked ward in a Victorian asylum, with little hope of rehabilitation or discharge. \u0000 \u0000Martin Roth was an intellectual giant, but also a man who was perspicacious and compassionate, and who would not have contemplated using such a treatment if he did not think it effective. The depth of the coma seemed to me to be critical in terms of remission. A few patients did not regain consciousness when given glucose, but usually ‘came out of it’ after some hours, although there was the occasional death. Very occasionally, a patient who was clearly psychotic who had an ‘irreversible coma’ on recovery was greatly mentally improved. These days, people find this difficult to believe, but I witnessed it on one occasion. I find it inconceivable that a multitude of psychiatrists, working in Europe and North America over 25 years, would not have noticed that the treatment they were giving was having no effect, when it clearly was, if only for a limited period. The real question was not whether insulin worked but how did insulin work. \u0000 \u0000I have no wish to minimise the success of Dr Bourne’s crusade, but what made insulin units redundant was the realisation that the new antipsychotic drugs actually worked, and at last, we had an effective, cheap and long-lasting method of managing a seemingly incurable disease. This was generally accepted by 1960.","PeriodicalId":90710,"journal":{"name":"Psychiatric bulletin (2014)","volume":"38 4","pages":"198"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1192/pb.38.4.198","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"32680930","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}
