from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Child and Adolescent Psychiatry is concerned with the prevention , diagnosis and treatment of mental , psychosomatic and neurological disorders in childhood or adolescence occur. Today it represents an independent medical specialty. It developed from general psychiatry .

In Germany, the official name has been Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Psychotherapy (KJPP) since 1993 . The KJPP is a neighboring subject of many other individual sciences (e.g. paediatrics , child neurology , social and developmental pediatrics , but also education ) that deal with children and adolescents and their families.

history

The subject of child and adolescent psychiatry began to establish itself shortly before 1900. In 1887 , Hermann Emminghaus published the first textbook on child psychiatry. The first clinical facility for child psychiatry in Germany was founded in Bonn in 1926 and headed by Otto Löwenstein . It was probably also the first of its kind in the world.

description

Typical diagnoses in child and adolescent psychiatry are listed in the chapter on mental disorders in childhood and adolescence of the ICD-10 (see F90-F98 , Chapter V). However, the diagnosis also covers all of the psychosocial references of a child or adolescent. The holistic view is based on the scientific standards of the field and is the basis for all child and adolescent psychiatric therapy measures ( psychotherapy , pharmacotherapy, etc.).

Diagnosis and therapy by a doctor specializing in child and adolescent psychiatry and psychotherapy may be indicated in the following situations:

Specialist training

Child and adolescent psychiatrists are usually either resident or work in a child and adolescent psychiatric service (KJPD) , and of course in relevant clinics and universities.

In order to work as a specialist in child and adolescent psychiatry and psychotherapy in Germany after completing a medical degree , a five-year period of further training is required:

The training takes place according to a fixed workload from the sample logbook of the German Medical Association , from which the valid logbooks of the individual federal states are derived. The designation was introduced in 1993 in the course of the new training regulations of the German Medical Association and replaced the title "Specialist in child and adolescent psychiatry" introduced in 1968.

From July 2020, a new further training regulation will apply in Hesse for all medical specialists in Hesse.

statistics

  • There are large regional differences in the supply of resident specialists and therapists for child / adolescent psychiatry and psychotherapy. On a national average, there are around 29 specialists in the mental health of children and adolescents for every 100,000 people up to the age of 18. However, more than 70% of all German districts and urban districts are below this average. In 15 circles not a single child and adolescent psychotherapist or psychiatrist has his or her office. The nationwide average is largely determined by a small number of cities with a significantly higher supply of care - at the most up to around 150 specialists per 100,000 children and young people.

Advice and outside accommodation

  • Certain counseling services (independent health or youth welfare organizations) deal with special problem situations such as suicide risk, drugs, stuttering and the like. a.
  • The youth counseling service JOKER was a special facility for the psychosocial care of young people .
  • Day and night facilities take on diagnostic tasks (usually over a 6-week stay as well as medium and long-term accommodation). Such clinics with child and adolescent psychiatric facilities often belong to large psychiatric clinics, usually privately owned or run by university hospitals.
  • At short notice and for further clarification, those affected can also be accommodated in child and youth emergency services and in clearing houses.
  • A home is an educationally supervised residential facility for children in accordance with SGB ​​VIII, § 34; the supervised youth living takes care of over 15-year-olds.
