- Good Psychiatric Management for Borderline Personality Disorder During the Perinatal Period: GPM-P(2024) UCHOA, Caroline L. Mesquita; NADEL, Isabella L.; CHOI-KAIN, Lois W.Purpose of ReviewWomen with borderline personality disorder (BPD) are especially at risk for experiencing adverse physiological, psychological, and social effects of pregnancy and postpartum. Those with BPD are vulnerable to these developmental transitions because of the interpersonal hypersensitivity that underpins the confusing oscillations of their symptoms.Recent FindingsGood Psychiatric Management (GPM) is a structured generalist intervention for patients with BPD found to be comparable in effectiveness to more intensive specialized psychotherapies such as DBT. GPM is adaptable to address the known vulnerabilities of patients in the perinatal period, during this critical time when mothers encountered critical transitions in identity and role transformation.SummaryThese brief, pragmatic clinical interventions can be adjunct to usual obstetric care to improve outcomes, both psychiatrically and medically. Expectant mothers with BPD and the clinical teams caring for them will benefit from the inherent flexibility of GPM, which incorporates (extra)conservative pharmacotherapy, increased family and social support network involvement, and increased attention to the social-emotional demands.

Mesquita; PUCKER, Hannah E.; TEMES, Christina M.; HEIN, Katherine E.; ZANARINI, Mary C.The main aim of this article is to compare the prevalence of four forms of physically self-destructive behavior in the offspring of parents with borderline personality disorder (BPD) and compare them to the offspring of parents with other personality disorders (OPD). At the 4- and 6-year waves in a prospective study of the long-term course of BPD, participants were asked to report on the self-destructive behaviors of their children using the Childhood Self-Destructiveness Scale. A total of 68 parents were interviewed regarding 131 children, 104 of whom were offspring of parents with BPD (n = 55) and 27 were offspring of parents with OPD (n = 13). BPD parents reported significantly more self-injury and substance abuse in their children than OPD parents. The results from this study suggest that both direct and indirect forms of self-destructive behavior are both more common and quite specific for the children of parents with BPD.- COMVC-19: A Program to protect healthcare workers' mental health during the COVID-19 Pandemic. What we have learned(2021) FUKUTI, Pedro; UCHOA, Caroline Louise Mesquita; MAZZOCO, Marina Flaborea; CRUZ, Isabella D'Andrea Garcia da; ECHEGARAY, Mariana V. F.; HUMES, Eduardo de Castro; SILVEIRA, Julia Belizario; SANTI, Talita Di; MIGUEL, Euripedes Constantino; CORCHST, FelipeOBJECTIVE: In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic brought a work and stress overload to healthcare workers, increasing their vulnerability to mental health impairments. In response, the authors created the COMVC-19 program. The program offered preventive actions and mental health treatment for the 22,000 workers of The Hospital das Clinicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de Sao Paulo (HCFMUSP). This paper aims to describe its implementation and share what we have learned from this experience. METHODS: Workers were able to easily access the program through a 24/7 hotline. Additionally, a mobile phone app that screened for signs and symptoms of emotional distress and offered psychoeducation and/or referral to treatment was made available. Data from both these sources as well as any subsequent psychiatric evaluations were collected. RESULTS: The first 20 weeks of our project revealed that most participants were female, and part of the nursing staff working directly with COVID-19 patients. The most frequently reported symptoms were: anxiety, depression and sleep disturbances. The most common diagnoses were Adjustment, Anxiety, and Mood disorders. CONCLUSIONS: Implementing a mental health program in a multimodal intervention was feasible in a major quaternary public hospital. Our data also suggests that preventive actions should primarily be aimed at anxiety and depression symptoms, with a particular focus on the nursing staff.
