“…Moreover, positive effects of SST on a number of psychological problems have also been found in studies conducted in South Korea (Eom et al, 2012), Peru (Church, Piña, Reategui, & Brooks, 2012), Mexico (Schmulson, Ortiz-Garrido, Hinojosa, & Arcila, 2006), and Columbia (Urrego, Abaakouk, Roman, & Contreras, 2009). In Europe, the majority of research on SST has been carried out in the United Kingdom (Ellis, Cushing, & Germain, 2015;Lamprecht et al, 2007;Tantirangsee, Assanangkornchai, & Marsden, 2015;Whicher et al, 2012), Sweden (Andreasson, Hansagi, & Osterlund, 2002;Berman et al, 2010;Boman et al, 2018;Falkenstrom, Ekeblad, & Holmqvist, 2016;Hellstrom & Ost, 1995;S€ oderquist, 2018), Finland (Luutonen et al, 2019), Norway (Haukebo et al, 2008), Switzerland (Zehnder, Meuli, & Landolt, 2010), and Germany (Martin, Rauh, Fichter, & Rief, 2007;Thom, Sartory, & Johren, 2000).…”

Single session therapy (SST) postulates that one session can be sufficient for a client to take charge of the process and work toward their own solutions. Research has been conducted worldwide corroborating SST assumptions with several mental health conditions, but not in Italy. For the first time in Italy, this paper aims to explore: (1) if the most frequent number of sessions in traditional psychotherapy (not SST) is one (Study 1); and (2) the satisfaction of clients who attend SST services and the number who consider one session sufficient to address their presenting problem (Study 2). In Study 1, the records of 476 voluntary clients referred to three different traditional (not SST) psychological services in the west-central region of Latium, Italy, were retrospectively screened, and the number of sessions attended by each client recorded. In Study 2, 85 consecutive clients who voluntarily asked for SST with seven mental health professionals across Italy received a link to an online ad hoc survey, 1-3 weeks after the consultation, evaluating their experience. Study 1 found that the most frequent number of traditional psychotherapeutic (not intentionally SST) sessions was one (124 out of 476 clients (26%). Study 2 found that 44 out of 85 clients (52%) considered one session to be enough, as they felt better or much better and chose not to attend further sessions. Of those who asked for a second session (41 clients), 33 clients (80.5%) indicated that the first session was not enough and 8 clients (19.5%) wanted to address a new problem. These results converge with previous international studies and provide encouragement for the use of SST in both private and public psychological services to address the demand for timely mental health services in Italy. Further research is needed to support the efficacy of SST and to evaluate its cost-effectiveness.

Interventions Addressing Cannabis Use During Pregnancy: A Systematic Review

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

ObjectivesThe prevalence of cannabis use among pregnant women is increasing in the United States and places mothers and infants at risk of multiple adverse health outcomes. Given the uncertainty expressed by providers regarding how to approach cannabis use during pregnancy and the growing need for a systematic endeavor to curb use in this population, the aim of this study is to conduct a systematic review of interventions focused on reduction in cannabis use during pregnancy.MethodsWe conducted a systematic search of MEDLINE, PsycINFO, CINAHL, Web of Science, SCOPUS, and Cochrane Library to identify studies of interventions that target individuals that engaged in cannabis use during pregnancy. We included studies if they were randomized controlled trials, controlled studies, feasibility studies, pilot studies, as well as observational studies. The primary diagnostic outcome of interest is reduction in cannabis use.ResultsWe identified 9 studies for inclusion with sample sizes ranging from 15 to 658 pregnant people. Interventions involved brief counseling, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing (MI), motivational enhancement therapy + cognitive behavioral therapy (MET-CBT), computer-delivered psychotherapy, and psychoeducation. The interventions that were effective primarily used MI, CBT, and/or MET. There was just 1 study that implemented a home intervention and one that explored computer-based psychotherapy.ConclusionsThe studies uncovered through this systematic review suggest that interventions involving CBT and/or MI demonstrate promise for decreasing cannabis use during pregnancy. There is a tremendous need for high-quality studies focused on this population, and the potential for remote and computer-based interventions should be explored more fully.

“…Para evaluar el consumo de alcohol se incluyeron preguntas de cantidad y frecuencia en el 57% de los trabajos empíricos (9,11,12,18,21,23,24,(25)(26)(27)(28)(29). El T-ACE fue el instrumento de tamizaje más recomendado y utilizado, incluyéndose en el 34% de los trabajos empíricos y siendo seleccionado entre las mejores opciones para tamizar consumo de alcohol durante la gestación en el 64% de los trabajos de reflexión.…”

RESUMENObjetivo: Describir la producción científica de las Intervenciones Breves (IB) para disminuir el consumo de alcohol durante la gestación y cuantificarla mediante indicadores bibliométricos. Método: Se realizó un estudio de investigación secundaria con un diseño de revisión estructurada que consistió en búsquedas sistemáticas en las bases de datos Lilacs, PsycINFO, PubMed, Scielo y Scopus. Para el análisis se accedió al documento completo y se registraron características y procedimientos de aplicación de IB de los documentos seleccionados. Resultados: Se analizaron 45 artículos, la mayoría de los Estados Unidos. La primera publicación fue en 1999 registrándose un incremento progresivo hasta la actualidad. La revista con más publicaciones fue Obstetrics and Gynecology y el idioma predominante el inglés. El 52% de los artí-culos corresponden a trabajos empíricos, y el resto a trabajos de reflexión y revisiones que en su mayoría, promueven la abstinencia durante la gestación. En los trabajos experimentales se compararon dos grupos, intervención y control, y se registraron dos modalidades: vía web y cara a cara (71%). Para tamizar consumo de alcohol el T-ACE fue el instrumento más recomendado y utilizado, junto con preguntas de cantidad y frecuencia. Conclusiones: La necesidad de contar con estrategias efectivas para evitar el consumo de alcohol durante la gestación está siendo cada vez más reconocida. Se espera que en los próximos años el crecimiento del número de publicaciones impacte en nuestro contexto latinoamericano donde hay escasez de publicaciones, aparentemente nulas en habla hispana, y donde existe una relevante necesidad de evidencia sobre estrategias efectivas en esta población. PALABRAS CLAVES: Intervenciones breves, bebidas alcohólicas, promoción de la salud, embarazo, indicadores bibliométricos SUMMARY Aims:To describe the scientific production of the Brief Interventions (BI) to reduce alcohol consumption during pregnancy and quantify it by bibliometric indicators. Method: A secondary research study was conducted with a structured design review. A systematic search of Lilacs, PsycINFO, PubMed, Scopus and Scielo databases was made. For the analysis, we accessed to the full document and then concentrated on the application and procedures of the BI characterized in the articles. Results: Forty-five articles, most from the United States were analyzed. In 1999 was the first publication and it has been a gradual increase until today. The journal which published more was Obstetrics and Gynecology and the language of all publications was above all English. Half of the articles were empirical works, and the rest, opinion articles, and reviews. Most of them promote alcohol abstinence during pregnancy. In all experimental works, two groups were compared: intervention and control and the BI was implemented by two procedures: via web or face to face (71%). Among all the alcohol consumption screening instruments, the most recommended 56 REV CHIL OBSTET GINECOL 2016; 81(1): 56 -62
