Transfer of patients from adolescent to adult services is important
Geriatric psychiatry
Now dsm5 shows mild cognitive impairment-go into room forget why in there
Dsm5 changes
Mild cognitive impairment along with major
modest cognitive decline
Just change and ppl notice but doesn’t interfere with capacity of life
See more but not debilitating
Special considerations when treating geriatric patients
Multiple comorbidities
Unusual presentation of illness
More degenerative. Diseases and cancer
Differentiate normal aging from disease
Under reporting
Purpose of treatment
Medication start low and go high
Lewy body dimentia
Progressive disorder-neurocognitive deficits, memory, learning new things but also parkinsons like symptoms shuffling rigid falling and severe memory problems and visual hallucinations
Risk factor Alzheimer’s
Female, family history, head trauma, downs
Dementia reversible causes
Drug induced, thyroid, metabolic disorders, hematoma, hydrocephalus
Symptoms dementia
Depression
Memory loss Sadness Social withdrawal Disorientation Personality changes Inappropriate behavior Psychotic symptoms Agitation
Pseudodementia
Problems depression but there is something else going on, not a 6 moth progressive illness
Get depression under control and memory gets better!
Depression presents as memory loss
Most important dementia
H and P
For progression, comorbidity, neurological, mental exam, functional status, neuropsychological testing, labs-b12, folate, CBC, camp, hba1c, ct mri, pet
Neuropsych testing
If on fence and done mental status exam and family says cognitive decline
Impulsive, erratic, and memory isn’t too bad
Want to get a baseline of how bad memory is11 neuropsych testing on fence with anything of any psychiatric diagnosis
Closes thing to a blood test
BASE LINE neurocognitive funciton
B12
Numbness ataxic fatigue depressed
Pet scan
For diagnosing dementia but insurance rarely cover it
Treat dementia
Case treat
Rule out otherpsychiatric and Neuro conditions
Avoid anticholinergic medications which can impair cognitive function, especially in elderly (benadryl, hydroxyzine)** horrible on cognition
These meds slow progression and no cure. -donepezil acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, memantine NMDA antagonist
Treat psychosis in dementia
Antipsychotics
But black bock in psychosis in elderly patients with dementia
Olanzapine, aripiprazole, risperidone, quetiapine
Increase risk of sudden death -just says isn’t his pop twice likely for sudden death
These patients advanced dementia and medically compromised anyways but this is on all drugs packages
Start lowest dose shortest period of time possible by will get Parkinson’s
Psychosis due to delirium
Third most common cause of psychosis in elderly outpatients
And high risk mortality in delirium for 1 year

Substance abuse
Old prone to abuse prescription drugs and alcohol
Why do physicians miss substance abuse in old???

Unaware of increased impact certain substances have on the elderly
Uncomfortable-doctors Amy not be comfortable in screening elderly
Maintain a high index of suspicion When popping pills of drinking a lot and always ask about it
Risk factors for substance abuse in elderly
Female, single separated, absence of hobbies, health concerns, possible pharmacokinetic changes that take place in older individuals may lead to an increased potential for abuse of benzodiazepines or opiates
Long use of substances like benzodiazepines
Fall, cognition impairment, depression and other mood alterations, sleep alteration, balance and vestibular problems, delirium, increase risk for developing other medical conditions
Lorazepam old person
Delirium and confusion
Treat substance abuse in old
Treat withdrawal
Can’t go cold turkey with intense-alcohol, benzos and barbiturates can kill u if u do this
Alcohol->delirium tremendous and death
How go off alcohol barbiturates and benzodiazepines
Gradual taper is also an effective way to treat benzodiazepine dependence in older persons
Treat alcohol withdrawal
Benzodiazepines (diazempan)
Gabapentin and valorous acid
Treat substance abuse in older

Rare at 2nd gen
QT prolongation ecg changes
Negative inotropic actions
-greater risk for women, old and on antiarrhythmics**

In monozygotic only40-50%
Multiple genes, epigenetics, early life complications, labor delivery and neonatal life
1.5-2 fold increase for early life complication
