Anxiety Depression

Background: Studies have shown that caregivers of the persons with the neurological illness have high levels of psychological distress, depression and caregiver’s burden. The aim of the study was to find out anxiety, depression and caregiver’s burden among the caregivers of persons with neurological illness (PWNI). Method: Thirty caregivers of PWNI attending the Centre of Rehabilitation Sciences, LGB Regional Institute of Mental Health, Tezpur, Assam were selected using purposive sampling technique for the present study. Socio-demographic and clinical data sheet, Zarit Burden Interview Scale and The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale were used. Results: The results shown that in Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, 26.6% of the caregivers' scores were in the abnormal range in the domain of depression. While in the domain of anxiety, 16.6% scored in the abnormal range. In Zarit Burden of Scale, 13.3% of the caregivers were having little or no burden, 26.6% of the caregivers were having mild to moderate level of burden, 20% were having moderate to severe burden and 30% were having a severe burden of care. Care burden has significant positive correlation with depression (r= .124, p≤ 0.01 and anxiety (r= .124, p≤ 0.05). Conclusion: Caregivers of PWNI have been found to be at higher risk of mental health problems and care burden. The importance of addressing the burden of caregivers involved in the care of PWNI need to be taken into consideration while providing treatment and rehabilitation of PWNI.     Keywords: Anxiety, depression, burden, neurological illness

Provision of acute liaison in-patient neurology reduces demand on neurology out patient services, reduces unnecessary investigations and use of medical beds by patients waiting on in-patient neurology review and allows speedier access to necessary neurological services for those with a neurological illness.The pressure on acute neurology beds at QEUH Glasgow is immense and there is considerable delay in patients waiting for admission to the ward. An audit of the acute on call service in mid 2015 showed a 100% increase in the number of phone calls received by the on call registrar when compared to a similar audit in 2008. The number of requests for ward visiting to review medical inpatients at the Queen Elizabeth University hospital increased by more than 100% over the previous year.In June 2016 an Acute Neurology rota was introduced whereby a Consultant Neurologist supervised and delivered patient care for the acute neurology wards, referrals from medical wards and acute receiving, as well as twice a week acute neurology clinics. This has led to a significantly improved care for patients referred with neurological problems as perceived by trainees, consultants and referring medical physicians, as evident on a survey carried out in 2017.
