Thoughts of Death or Self-injury, Non-same-day ART Initiation, and 2-year Incidence of Disengagement from Care Among People Entering HIV Care in Cameroon
Thoughts of death or self-injury and the clinical implications of such thoughts remain largely underassessed among people with HIV (PWH) in Africa. As strong predictors of suicidal ideation and death by suicide, it is paramount to understand these risk indicators, particularly in populations with heightened susceptibility to poor mental health. We aimed to characterize thoughts of death or self-injury (i.e., self-injurious thoughts) and their rel…
Why Patient-Centered Built Environment Standards Matter More Than Numbers of Beds in Inpatient Psychiatry
This article canvasses extant literature about values, evidence, and standards for inpatient psychiatry units' design. It then analyzes apparent trade-offs between quality of care and access to care using empirical and ethical lenses. From this analysis, the authors conclude that standards for the built environment of inpatient psychiatric care should align with patient-centeredness, even if a downstream consequence of implementing new patient-ce…
Covid-19 Mitigation Activities in Inpatient Psychiatry Were Associated With Patient-Reported Institutional Betrayal, Changes in Trust, and Fear of Getting Sick
Institutional betrayal occurs when the institutions that people depend on fail to protect them from harm, which was exemplified by a failure to manage COVID-19 risks. Inpatient psychiatry provides a rich context for which to understand the effects of institutional betrayal, and this is amplified in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Using a retrospective cohort design, we administered an online survey to former patients (n = 172) of inpatient …
The Need to Prioritize Patient-Centered Care in Inpatient Psychiatry as a Matter of Social Justice
This Viewpoint discusses the need for payers and regulators to measure and prioritize patient-centered care in inpatient psychiatry to align incentives, supports, and standards as a way to motivate facilities and support staff in implementing evidence-based care
The Effect of Centers for Medicare and Medicaid’s Inpatient Psychiatric Facility Quality Reporting Program on the Use of Restraint and Seclusion
BACKGROUND: Patients in inpatient psychiatry settings are uniquely vulnerable to harm. As sources of harm, research and policy efforts have specifically focused on minimizing and eliminating restraint and seclusion. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid's Inpatient Psychiatric Facility Quality Reporting (IPFQR) program attempts to systematically measure and reduce restraint and seclusion. We evaluated facilities' response to the IPFQR program and…
Consumers’ Suggestions for Improving the Mental Healthcare System: Options, Autonomy, and Respect
Physical activity and negative emotion during peer-rejection: Evidence for emotion context sensitivity
It is well-established that physical activity is beneficial to physical and psychological health. However, how physical activity contributes to psychological health is still unclear. In this investigation, we examined the association between physical activity and negative emotions assessed in real-time during simulated-peer-rejection. Moreover, we explored mediation of this association by higher-order neurocognitive functioning and cardiovascular…
