Understanding the Natural History of REM Sleep Behavior Disorder

REM Sleep Behavior Disorder

The purpose of this research study is to determine if safe, simple and non-invasive tests such as an electrocardiogram (EKG), a smell test, or a blood test could be used to identify neurological disorders before typical symptoms occur. Researchers believe that early identification of these disorders could lead to treatments to prevent, delay, or slow the development of one of more of these diseases. Some people with REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) may go on to develop Parkinson's disease or another related neurological disorder, but many do not.

Epidemiology Study of Psychosis

Psychotic Disorders

Purpose Psychotic disorders (including schizophrenia) are complex neurobehaviour disorders influenced by genetic, neurodevelopmental, neurochemical, as well as psychosocial factors. Despite significant progresses in pharmacotherapy, the disorder often results in long-term disability (ranked globally amongst the top ten leading causes of disability-adjusted life years, DALYS), often associated with extensive cost, burden, morbidity and mortality. Objective / hypothesis The study aims to (1) measure the prevalence of psychotic symptoms in the Hong Kong population; (2) explore associated risk and protective factors for the expression of psychotic symptoms; (3) characterize the functional disability in people with psychotic symptoms; and (4) study the determinant of clinical presentation or non-presentation in people with psychotic symptoms. Design, subjects and study instrument The survey will be conducted with a two-phase design. The first phase interviews will include approximately 5,000 subjects with structured assessments serving diagnostic criteria for CMD, screening instruments for psychotic disorder, substance misuse and suicidal behaviours, functioning, service use and demographics. The second phase comprises of clinician interviews for psychotic disorder and "at risk mental state" and other variables including neurocognitive, help seeking, stigma and well-being. Analysis Prevalence estimates will be weighted, expressed as rates and confidence intervals. Comorbidity will be estimated using Latent Class Analysis (LCA) Logistic regression will be used to identify significant factors associated with mental disorders.

Dutch Prediction of Psychosis Study

Psychotic Disorders

The Dutch Prediction of Psychosis Study (DUPS) is a prospective study of predictors of the transition to psychosis in help-seeking adolescents at high risk for developing a first psychotic episode. The aim of the project is supplemented by a systematic account of the pathways to care, the disabilities and needs and the therapeutic interventions that are currently used in this population. Multi-level assessment includes behavioral and cognitive variables as well as structural brain imaging and neurophysiological data. Subjects will be followed up at regular intervals during (at least) two years to monitor the development of their (psychotic) symptoms. This will allow us to analyze the predictive validity of the variables.

Needs Assessment of Long-Term Care for Psychiatric Patients

Mental Disorders

The quantity and quality of inpatient services for persons with psychiatric illness have been enhanced in the last two decades. Following the enforcement of nationwide health insurance and the Physically and Mentally Disabled Citizens Protection Act, the financial pressure of medical care for psychiatric patients is relieved, and actions related to the protection of patients' human rights have been taken. Nonetheless, problems related to psychiatric illness are not limited to symptoms. Patients' daily functions are affected and it causes continuous pressure on the family. Currently, psychiatric care places more emphasis on inpatient services. Once the patient is discharged from the hospital, related psychiatric services are not widely available, which leads to symptom exacerbation, repeated hospital admissions, increased burden to the family, etc. A provision of continuous long-term care that meets the various needs of psychiatric patients is a critical issue in current psychiatric care. Based on a three-phase needs assessment model, the purpose of the study is to evaluate the needs of long-term care for psychiatric patients. The first phase will identify the current status of needs from the perspectives of patients and the family, psychiatric professionals, and the system. The second phase will identify the goals of long-term care for psychiatric patients. The goals will be identified by a nominal group, composed of experts related to the field of psychiatric long-term care. The third phase will determine the objectives of long-term care services for psychiatric patients. That is to determine the proper contents of long-term care services for the patients based on the goals identified in the previous phase. The three-phase needs assessment will be carried out in a two-year period. The results of the study will provide important information to the future planning of long-term care for psychiatric patients.
