3. Strategies for Improving Outcome Understand and treat currently treatment refractory symptoms (cognitive deficits and negative symptoms) Earliest possible intervention

6. Chronic, deteriorating Episodic, w/interepisode deficits ( common) Episodic, w/o interepisode deficits The course of schizophrenia Broad therapeutic window for Prevention/Early intervention

7. Serious mental disorders in youth Schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and serious depressive disorders affect up to 3% of the population Typical onset 12-25 years (TAY) Hospitalization, school failure, substance abuse, disability and unemployment, criminalization and incarceration frequent complications We can significantly improve outcome and prevent these complications with an early intervention approach

8. Prevention Primary: Before a disease starts, prevent its onset (e.g. by immunization) Seconday: after a disease has started but before it has a clinical effect e.g. treating hypertension to prevent cardiovascular disease. Pap smear for cervical cancer Tertiary: identify and alleviate an established disease at an early stage to prevent complications, improve or maintain functional status e.g. aspirin therapy after heart attack to prevent recurrence

10. EDAPT Clinic: Rationale Duration of untreated psychosis is associated with poor outcome Early in illness treatment response is robust Loss of function and treatment resistance follow repeated relapses Early intervention can improve functional outcome Tailored treatment pathways and therapies for early treatment and rehabilitation

14. EDAPT Clinic: 2 “Target” Populations Early psychosis “first episode” patients Ultra high risk

15. First Episode Cohort 12-45 years of age Onset within the previous 12 months Goal is to engage patient (and family/support system) in sustained treatment Stabilize, and support recovery of function and developmental trajectory

16. Clinic Description The EDAPT Clinic provides comprehensive diagnostic and treatment services for children and young adults who have recently developed a psychotic disorder, or who are at high risk for one of these disorders. The goals of the clinic are 1. Early Intervention 2. Prevention of disease-related deficits 3. Prevention of treatment-related side effects 4. Active participation in treatment 5. Progression towards personal, social, and occupational goals Referral Sources Sacramento County Mental Health Treatment Center (SCMHTC) UC Davis Outpatient Psychiatry Clinic Community Psychiatric Hospitals NAMI Family Members School Psychologists/Nurses Turning Point Crisis Residential Sacramento County CAPPS Clinic UC Davis Counseling Center (CAPS) The EDAPT Clinic

17. Clinic Demographics Screened (07/05 - 08/07) 493 Accepted into Clinic 104 Total Number Enrolled 70 First Episode Patients 49 ‘Ultra High Risk’ Patients 21 Age Range of Patients 11-34 Average Age 19 Under 18 46% Working or in School 91% Number hospitalized 10 Ethnic Makeup of Clinic Caucasian 57% African American24 Latino7 Asian/Pacific Islander9 Middle Eastern3 Caucasian African American Latino Asian/Pacific Islander Middle Eastern Sacramento County

18. Some key first episode treatment issues Diagnostic uncertainty, symptom based treatment, side effects Denial of illness, non compliance Depression, suicidality Family support “re-entry”, socialization, stress, advocacy Individualized pathways to recovery, value of peer groups

19. Key elements of treatment model Multidisciplinary treatment team Rapid response, extensive medical and psychiatric assessment Setting, may be better outside of CMH setting Medication management Individual and group therapy (psychoed, motivational, supportive) Advocacy (school, vocational, insurance and disability etc) Multifamily support group

20. Very Early Intervention: Ultra High Risk Cohort Can we delay the onset of psychosis and prevent functional decline? “Ultra High Risk” strategy: subthreshold psychosis, OR genetic risk or SPD and functional decline predict 20-40% conversion rate

21. Three Prodromal Risk State Categories Attenuated Positive Symptom State –Onset or worsening in the past year of (a) paranoid, grandiose, or referential ideas but without full conviction, (b) perceptual disturbances but without certainty of an external source, or (c) vague, circumstantial or tangential communication that is coherent and structured under redirection Brief Intermittent Psychotic Symptom State –Onset in the last month of transient hallucinations, delusions, and/or thought disorder, lasting less than one hour per day Genetic Risk and Deterioration State –A decline of 30% or more on the GAF in the past 12 months, AND patient either (a) has a first-degree relative with schizophrenia or (b) meets criteria for schizotypal PD

25. Improved Outcomes from Very Early Intervention Results suggestive from Australian, Danish and U.S. studies BUT Definitive results will be needed to change public policy in the U.S.

26. Early Detection and Intervention to Prevent Psychosis (EDIPP)

27. Earlier Intervention: EDIPP Funded by a $2 million grant from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation 5 sites across the nation Sacramento City, favored due to diversity, UCDMC favored for its strong community partnerships Seeks to make history, change public policy Careful diagnostic assessment, SIPS interview, plus active diagnoses and co-morbidities TARGETTED pharmacological therapies PIER model multifamily Psycho education and support groups supportive therapy, family support and therapy, supported education and employment and advocacy Research for enhanced risk prediction

31. Family-aided Assertive Community Treatment (FACT): Clinical and functional intervention Rapid, crisis-oriented initiation of treatment Psychoeducational multifamily groups Case management and Medical Management using key Assertive Community Treatment methods –Integrated, multidisciplinary team; rapid response; continuous case review –Targeted pharmacological intervention as needed Supported employment and education Collaboration with schools, colleges and employers Substance abuse treatment, as indicated The EDAPT Program

32. Addressing diversity in EDIPP  Role of community partners in outreach, education, development of materials and MFG design  UCDMC medical interpreting services, for outreach, SIPS and individual patient evaluations and care  Development of culturally tailored MFG groups, partnering with therapists from African American, Latino and Hmong communities  Success would provide strong evidence for the value of the early intervention approach in an increasingly diverse American population
