Book excerpt: La escuela es una institución favorecedora de conductas positivas, pero a veces se puede convertir en un factor de riesgo en la aparición de problemas de salud mental que puede ser producto de los métodos pedagógicos utilizados o incluso de los procesos previos que los menores tienen en el contexto familiar y que en la escuela pueden aparecer con mayor intensidad. El objetivo principal de este libro es ofrecer una visión detallada y precisa de la psicopatología infantil en el contexto educativo y proporcionar una herramienta de trabajo válida para los maestros que tienen que afrontar, en ocasiones, unas necesidades educativas específicas de apoyo educativo graves y permanentes que van a suponer un reto importante en su vida profesional y que en muchos casos van a cuestionar muchas de las ideas preconcebidas que los maestros y otros profesionales de la educación puedan tener sobre los trastornos mentales. Para dar respuesta a ese objetivo, la obra se ha organizado en tres bloques. El primero de ellos, «Psicopatología y escuela», proporciona una visión general de la psicopatología infantil como campo científico independiente de la psicopatología adulta, con sus características y peculiaridades encuadradas en lo que hoy se denomina la psicopatología del desarrollo. El segundo bloque, «Trastornos psicopatológicos en la etapa escolar», realiza un recorrido por los principales problemas de salud mental que alcanzan una mayor prevalencia en la etapa escolar, concretamente entre los 6 y los 11 años. En todos ellos se exponen sus características, etiologías, formas clínicas, criterios diagnósticos y pautas generales de intervención en el contexto educativo. Para finalizar, se ha incluido un tercer bloque, «Intervención, salud y escuela», que recoge algunos de los modelos de intervención educativa más utilizados en la actualidad y ofrece una revisión de los principales programas educativos.

Book excerpt: Los problemas psicopatológicos están presentes desde la infancia. Un buen abordaje desde edades tempranas se revela vital en el tratamiento y la atención de estas problemáticas. La principal dificultad estriba en la detección temprana de estas dificultades, que afectan no solo al alumnado que las padece, sino también a sus iguales, sus familias, profesorado y escuela. A estas dificultades, cuando no se trabajan y resuelven en la edad infantil, se suman a otras como la baja motivación académica, el acoso escolar o el bajo rendimiento académico, que tanto preocupan a familias, profesorado, escuela y sociedad en general. La escuela es una institución que puede y debe colaborar en la detección de estos problemas. El objetivo principal de esta obra es ofrecer una visión detallada y lo más precisa posible de la psicopatología infantil entre los 0 y 6 años de edad, intentando proporcionar recursos y herramientas de trabajo a los profesionales de la educación infantil y a las familias, que tienen que afrontar estas necesidades educativas especiales, con lo que esto les supone. El libro presenta una visión completa de la problemática presente a estas edades, cuestiones como la depresión y ansiedad en la infancia, el trastorno disocial, el trastorno negativista desafiante, la enuresis, la encopresis, los problemas de alimentación, trastornos del sueño (insomnio, pesadillas, terrores nocturnos,…), trastorno de atención y/o hiperactividad, tics y trastornos motores, abuso y maltrato infantil, se abordan desde una perspectiva práctica. Primero, con una breve introducción sobre qué es, en qué y cómo afectan estas problemáticas en la edad infantil a los menores, sus familias y a la escuela. Para después, ilustrarlo con un caso práctico basado en casos reales que el autor ha trabajado en su experiencia profesional como psicólogo durante casi 20 años. El autor de este libro es profesor del Departamento de Psicología y Sociología de la Universidad de Zaragoza, desde hace más de quince años. Anteriormente, como psicólogo, durante casi veinte años su trabajo se centró en la psicopatología en niños y adolescentes. En la actualidad, imparte la asignatura de Psicopatología Infantil en la atención a la diversidad, del grado de Educación Infantil de la Facultad de Educación.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely practical reference addresses the lack of Spanish-language resources for mental health professionals to use with their Latino clients. Geared toward both English- and Spanish-speaking practitioners in a variety of settings, this volume is designed to minimize misunderstandings between the clinician and client, and with that the possibility of inaccurate diagnosis and/or ineffective treatment. Coverage for each topic features a discussion of cultural considerations, guidelines for evidence-based best practices, a review of available findings, a treatment plan, plus clinical tools and client handouts, homework sheets, worksheets, and other materials. Chapters span a wide range of disorders and problems over the life-course, and include reproducible resources for: Assessing for race-based trauma. Using behavioral activation and cognitive interventions to treat depression among Latinos. Treating aggression, substance use, abuse, and dependence among Latino Adults. Treating behavioral problems among Latino adolescents. Treating anxiety among Latino children. Working with Latino couples. Restoring legal competency with Latinos. The Toolkit for Counseling Spanish-Speaking Clients fills a glaring need in behavioral service delivery, offering health psychologists, social workers, clinical psychologists, neuropsychologists, and other helping professionals culturally-relevant support for working with this under served population. The materials included here are an important step toward dismantling barriers to mental health care.

A terceira edicao foi atualizada e todos os protocolos foram reformulados. Os protocolos estao divididos por 16 capitulos que cobrem todas as areas da urgencia pediatrica desde a reanimacao e falencia de orgao, ate urgencias de adolescentes, cardiologicas, cirurgicas, dermatologicas, endocrinas, gastrenterologicas, hematologicas, infeciosas, metabolicas, nefrologicas, neonatais, neurologicas, respiratorias e trauma. Inclui ainda um capitulo sobre procedimentos.Onze anos depois da 1A edicao, depositamos agora nas vossas maos a 3A edicao do Livro Azul dos Protocolos de Urgencia em Pediatria. Nestes anos deixou de ser uma referencia local, expandiu-se de norte a sul do pais e chegou mesmo aos PALOPs. Ja vao longe os primeiros passos deste livro. Agora, quase adolescente, cresceu muito: dos 98 protocolos iniciais passou a ter agora 142.O objectivo continua a ser, como no principio, facultar, sobretudo aos jovens medicos na area da Pediatria, uma ferramenta de consulta facil, com informacao resumida e filtrada que lhes possa ser util, nas circunstancias, especialmente dificeis e muitas vezes angustiantes, da urgencia.Nao pode, contudo, deixar de ser realcado que a Medicina nao se exerce por decreto e que, por isso, nunca devem os protocolos ser encarados como um dogma. Constituem orientacoes gerais, que terao, necessariamente, de ser adaptadas a cada doente concreto, pois, como todos sabemos, os doentes nao vem nos livros.O conhecimento medico tem aumentado de forma exponencial, o que nos obriga a um esforco sempre acrescido de separar o essencial do acessorio. Esse foi o desafio que colocamos aos colaboradores desta edicao, especialistas nos varios temas abordados.A todos agradecemos a forma competente e entusiastica como participaram.Esperamos que continue a ser o instrumento util que tem sido e aguardamos os comentarios, criticas e sugestoes dos leitores, para que a proxima edicao possa preencher ainda mais as necessidades daqueles a quem se destina.
