344 - Sexually Violent Predators - Clinical, Forensic, and Ethical Issues VT PI PD

Public outrage has justifiably ensued when convicted sex offenders who are released from prison commit subsequent sexual assaults. At least seventeen states currently allow for the indeterminate civil commitment (i.e., locked psychiatric placement) of those sex offenders assessed as dangerous once they have completed their prison terms. These SVP statutes have engendered controversy both on constitutional and ethical grounds. All the DSM-IV-TR system can provide is a catalog of the specific mental disorders. But which ones should count towards SVP civil commitment? Upon the completion of this activity, participants will be able to: - Identify why twenty states have passed statutes mandating long term civil psychiatric commitment for sexually violent predators who are about to be released from prison.
- List the legal and ethical difficulties that make this one of the most controversial areas in all of mental health practice.
- Differentiate how well or poorly different DSM diagnoses fit into the statutory definition of mental disorder that triggers sexual predator civil commitment proceedings.

Though we all have a personality, a disorder exists only when personality traits have become so extreme, inflexible, and maladaptive that they markedly impair functioning and get the person in the same kind of trouble over and over again. It's Differentiation from normalcy will be discussed along with classification and corresponding treatment techniques, including: psychodynamic, cognitive, behavioral, interpersonal, and supportive. Upon the completion of this activity, participants will be able to: - Describe the adaptive value of personality traits, how these survived via natural selection, and how to support them in helping patients cope with medical and psychiatric illness.
- Distinguish personality disorders from Axis I conditions.
- List several cognitive, behavioral, psychodynamic, supportive, and paradoxical approaches to the treatment personality disorders.

Over the ages, our patients have at times been revered as saints, murdered as witches, and harmed with all manner of treatments that amounted to physical Abuse and/or poisoning. From the advent of humane psychiatry in the nineteenth century brought, the development of scientific psychiatry in the twentieth century, there has so far been surprisingly little transfer between the remarkably rich findings of neuroscience and the day to day clinical practice of psychiatry. We will discuss likely future trends and why a deep understanding of obsessive/compulsive disorder and bipolar disorder will probably long precede an understanding of major depression or schizophrenia. - Upon the comletion of this activity, participants will be able to:
- Describe how present day psychiatry emerged from myth and folk medicine and what the legacy of the past suggests about our future.
- Discuss he remarkable advances in neuroscience in the past 50 years and how these have, and have not, influenced the clinical practice of psychiatry.
- List likely ways in which psychiatric diagnosis and treatment will evolve in the coming decades.
