Beskrivning

Digital Psychiatry: Case Studies of Patient-Driven Innovations illustrates the clinical perspective of using technology to improve mental health of patients. Over the past two decades, technology has begun to play an important role in medicine. The synergy of technology and psychiatry, now called telepsychiatry or digital psychiatry, has helped increase treatment access, training, and dissemination while reducing cost and stigma associated with mental health disorders. Most of what is known today in telepsychiatry is based on scientific research such as pilot studies, clinical trials and meta-analyses, which have been conducted in hospital and/or academic settings. These studies only tell one side of the story, that of the scientists, doctors, clinicians, and professors without taking into account the experience of the patients. This reference examines a series of clinical cases to showcase how modified technological devices such as video games, apps, movies, and online videos can treat psychiatric conditions. This book is a prime resource for researchers and clinicians who are trying to understand how to incorporate technology into treatment options for patients.

Discusses how telepsychiatry can be used in a private setting
Demonstrates how technological devices such as video games and apps are used as treatment options
Includes both successful and non-successful patient cases
Provides both clinical and patient perspective towards treatment
