Week 5: Schizophrenia Spectrum and Other Psychotic Disorders; Medication-Induced Movement Disorders<\/p>\n
Two groups of symptoms found with schizophrenia spectrum and related psychotic disorders are \u201cpositive\u201d and \u201cnegative\u201d symptoms. Positive symptoms generally \u201cadd\u201d and include things such as delusions, hallucinations, and repetitive movements. Negative symptoms generally \u201cdetract\u201d and may include difficulty showing emotions, withdraw from social relationships, or apathy.<\/p>\n
While many disorders result in the development of \u201cpositive\u201d symptoms, not all of these conditions represent schizophrenia. When treating schizophrenia spectrum and other psychotic disorders, place emphasis not only on treating the positive symptoms but the negative and residual symptoms as well.<\/p>\n
Medication-induced movement disorders, one example of which is tremors, can stem from both recreational and therapeutic drugs, with dopamine receptor blocking drugs, such as antipsychotic and antiemetics, being common causes. These types of disorders can range from subtle to lethal.<\/p>\n
This week, you will explore a wide variety of disorders along the schizophrenia spectrum as well as medication-induced movement disorders.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Assignment: Focused SOAP Note for Schizophrenia Spectrum, Other Psychotic, and Medication-Induced Movement Disorders<\/p>\n
Psychotic disorders change one\u2019s sense of reality and cause abnormal thinking and perception. Patients presenting with psychotic disorders may suffer from delusions or hallucinations or may display negative symptoms such as lack of emotion or withdraw from social situations or relationships. Symptoms of medication-induced movement disorders can be mild or lethal and can include, for example, tremors, dystonic reactions, or serotonin syndrome.<\/p>\n
For this Assignment, you will complete a focused SOAP note for a patient in a case study who has either a schizophrenia spectrum, other psychotic, or medication-induced movement disorder.\u00a0<\/p>\n
To Prepare<\/p>\n
Review this week\u2019s Learning Resources. Consider the insights they provide about assessing, diagnosing, and treating schizophrenia spectrum, other psychotic, and medication-induced movement disorders.<\/p>\n

Review the Focused SOAP Note template, which you will use to complete this Assignment. There is also a Focused SOAP Note Exemplar provided as a guide for Assignment expectations.<\/p>\n
Review the video,\u00a0Case Study: Sherman Tremaine. You will use this case as the basis of this Assignment. In this video, a Walden faculty member is assessing a mock patient. The patient will be represented onscreen as an avatar.<\/p>\n
Consider what history would be necessary to collect from this patient.<\/p>\n
Consider what interview questions you would need to ask this patient.<\/p>\n
The Assignment<\/p>\n
Develop a focused SOAP note, including your differential diagnosis and critical-thinking process to formulate a primary diagnosis. Incorporate the following into your responses in the template:<\/p>\n
Subjective:\u00a0What details did the patient provide regarding their chief complaint and symptomology to derive your differential diagnosis? What is the duration and severity of their symptoms? How are their symptoms impacting their functioning in life?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Objective:\u00a0What observations did you make during the psychiatric assessment?\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n
Assessment:\u00a0Discuss the patient\u2019s mental status examination results. What were your differential diagnoses? Provide a minimum of three possible diagnoses with supporting evidence, and list them in order from highest priority to lowest priority. Compare the\u00a0DSM-5-TR\u00a0diagnostic criteria for each differential diagnosis and explain what\u00a0DSM-5-TR\u00a0criteria rules out the differential diagnosis to find an accurate diagnosis. Explain the critical-thinking process that led you to the primary diagnosis you selected. Include pertinent positives and pertinent negatives for the specific patient case.<\/p>\n
Plan:\u00a0What is your plan for psychotherapy? What is your plan for treatment and management, including alternative therapies? Include pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic treatments, alternative therapies, and follow-up parameters, as well as a rationale for this treatment and management plan.\u00a0Also incorporate one health promotion activity and one patient education strategy.<\/p>\n
Reflection notes:\u00a0What would you do differently with this patient if you could conduct the session again?\u00a0Discuss what your next intervention would be if you were able to follow up with this patient.\u202fAlso include in your reflection a discussion related to legal\/ethical considerations (demonstrate critical thinking beyond confidentiality and consent for treatment!), health promotion, and disease prevention, taking into consideration patient factors (such as age, ethnic group, etc.), PMH, and other risk factors (e.g., socioeconomic, cultural background, etc.).<\/p>\n
Provide at least three evidence-based, peer-reviewed journal articles or evidenced-based guidelines that relate to this case to support your diagnostics and differential diagnoses. Be sure they are current (no more than 5 years old).<\/p>\n
