  • Icelandic Primary Care Physicians' Perceived
    ICELANDIC PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIANS’ PERCEIVED COMPETENCE IN DETECTION AND TREATMENT OF BEHAVIOR DISORDERS Haukur Sigurðsson A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2007 Committee: William H. O’Brien, Advisor Robert A. Carels Michael J. Zickar © 2006 Haukur Sigurðsson All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT William H. O’Brien, Advisor While mental disorders are prevalent in primary health care settings, they often go undetected and untreated. There are no records to be found on studies of the effectiveness of Icelandic primary care physicians in diagnosing and treating mental illness. However, it is likely that the Icelandic primary health care system is not significantly different from systems in other countries that show poor detection and treatment of mental illness. The present study is the first study aimed at evaluating Icelandic primary care physicians’ experience with mental health problems and perceived competence in detection and treatment of behavior disorders. Furthermore, it is the first empirical attempt to assess the need for improved primary mental health care in Iceland. This exploratory study was designed to assess primary care physician’s perception of: 1) Prevalence and significance of different behavior disorders in the primary health care clinics, 2) their ability to detect and treat behavior disorders within the primary health care system, 3) the physician’s access to mental health services as well as quality of communication with mental health professionals, and 4) barriers to adequate mental health care within the Icelandic primary health care system. Main results suggest that Icelandic primary care physicians correctly identify that they, among all health care workers, are the ones seeing the highest proportion of people in the community suffering from mental health problems.

  • Change of Government's Subsidization Policy Improves
    Wu et al. BMC Public Health (2016) 16:415 DOI 10.1186/s12889-016-3052-7 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Change of government’s subsidization policy improves smoking cessation services: a cross-sectional study from the perspectives of physicians Tai-Yin Wu1,2†, Ling-Yu Hung3†, Wei-Chu Chie2, Tai-Yuan Chiu4* and Fei-Ran Guo4* Abstract Background: The Taiwanese government increased financial subsidies for smoking cessation services in 2012. We aimed to evaluate the effects of this new policy on smoking cessation services from the physician’s perspective. Methods: This was a cross-sectional nationwide survey. Physicians who provided smoking cessation services for more than ten patient encounters in the preceding year of the new policy (February 2011 to March 2012) were recruited. The questionnaire was developed by two experts and was validated by a committee consisting of 11 delegates. Results: We sent a total of 1,319 questionnaires. The response rate was 45.9 %. The majority of respondents were male (88.4 %), middle-aged (65.3 %), and worked as family physicians (56.1 %). Most physicians agreed that the new policy had increased the number of patients seeking smoking cessation, increased patients’ willingness to adopt pharmacotherapy, helped physicians to prescribe medications, improved patients’ adherence to medications, and improved quality of care. These changes were most prominent in medical centers. Changes in the practice of the 5As (ask, advise, assess, assist, arrange) were moderate. Among different medical settings, the most significant change was an increase in the expenditure on smoking cessation medications. Conclusions: The new subsidization policy in Taiwan has improved smoking cessation services.

  • A DOCTOR for Your Baby from the Moment You Learn You’Re Expecting a Baby, You Probably Start to Plan
    How to Choose A DOCTOR FOR Your Baby From the moment you learn you’re expecting a baby, you probably start to plan.

Though it might not seem like an urgent matter while your baby is in utero, choosing the right doctor for your child is just as important as picking out a crib or deciding what he or she will be fed. 1 What are My Options? Your baby can see a pediatrician, a family doctor or a pediatric nurse practitioner for his or her medical care. A pediatrician, or doctor specializing in pediatrics, has had specialized training that focuses solely on the health of children from birth to 21 years. A family doctor can treat patients of all ages from birth through adulthood. He or she has had training in a variety of areas including pediatrics, internal medicine and obstetrics and gynecology. A pediatric nurse practitioner has a master’s degree in nursing, and like a pediatrician, has chosen to focus solely on the care of children, teens and young adults. He or she can perform physical exams, make diagnoses, write prescriptions and provide treatment. If a pediatric nurse practitioner encounters a difficult medical case, he or she usually will consult with a doctor.
