Psychiatry is the branch of medicine that focuses on the pharmacological and nonpharmacological diagnosis and management of mental, emotional, and behavioral illnesses. In the past, such illnesses were often attributed to spiritual maladies or possessions. Modern psychiatry was developed in the late 19th century to provide a clinical explanation of mental phenomena. In this course, students will be introduced to the general concepts of every group of psychiatric disorders and forensic psychiatry and taught how to conduct a psychiatric assessment. For optimal comprehension, students are expected to have a good grasp of human physiology, neurological pathology, clinical interrogation and examination, and pharmacology. All individuals undergo a certain level of psychological distress during a disease process. It is incorrect and unacceptable to describe them as “crazy.” Good knowledge of psychiatry enables competent clinicians to observe behavioral patterns that might hint at deeper psychiatric phenomena, such as depression and anxiety. Moreover, it helps them differentiate between symptoms related to physical maladies and those resulting from mental illnesses. Furthermore, prompt recognition of psychiatric emergencies, such as suicidal ideations or aggression toward others, can ensure the safety of the affected individual and others in the ER. ► LECTURIO Medical is your all-in-one medical school study companion! 💚 With our easy-to-follow videos, exam replicating clinical case questions and our comprehensive medical concept pages you will be best prepared for all your exams.
