NRNP 6630: Psychopathology and Diagnostic Reasoning



Introduction


Depression in a clinical aspect is defined as a medical and psychiatric illness that causes

severe symptoms, including tiredness, low mood, lack of pleasure, and loss of interest, which

can, in some cases, result in suicidal thoughts. According to SAMHSA, the national incidence

of African American children aged 5 to 11 who are experiencing depression correlates with the

increase in suicide rates seen nationally. In the general population, suicide was ranked as the

10th leading cause of death by people in their age group. Researchers say that children are

susceptible to long-term illnesses such as physical or sexual violence, negligence, the effects of

loss,

bullying, or social stigmatization, as well as well as social tension, predispose them to

developing disorders. The study aims to investigate three solutions for an 8-year-old African

American boy suffering from depression and who displays all the signs and symptoms of the

disease, It would also serve as a measure of how ethically sensitive it is to handle this client, the

client must meet at least five of the criteria stipulated in the most recent edition of the

Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), It is highly important for

PMHPs to use extreme caution when administering psychotropic medications directly to

pediatric patients. This paper would identify the care strategy for treating the eight-year-dosing

, patient, which involves three treatment choices, and clarify the reasoning and assessment of

each treatment approach.



Decision #1


Zoloft is taken orally once a day, while Paxil and Wellbutrin are both given orally twice

a day. The first line of childhood and teen antidepressants was SSRIs (SSRIs for the younger age

groups) (Dwyer and Bloch, 2019). This removes Wellbutrin from consideration from this option.

The drug's manufacturer has not yet been able to do enough clinical trials in pediatrics to

recommend it as a first-line therapy and Furthermore, the medication is also associated with risk

of weight loss and epilepsy (Dwyer and Bloch, 2019). It was announced that Paxil could raise

the risk of suicidal thoughts or suicidal behavior in those under the age of eighteen (Hect and

Hect,

2003). There are no clinical trials proving that show that Paxil is successful in treating

children with MDD (Hect and Hect, 2003). Studies also shown a 3.4% higher suicide rates in

children who were prescribed paroxetine (compared to 1% who were not) (8 out of 647; 1.2

percent). There was no instance of suicide among the patients in the data in these studies.

(Waechter,

2003). Thus, in order to treat the client, I agreed to give him Zoloft 25 mg daily. My target of

Zoloft 25 mg a day is to reduce depressive symptoms with few or no side effects. In the coming

weeks, we will see if there are any side effects. In terms of depressive symptoms, the client

reported having returned to the clinic after four weeks, no improvement was seen. therapeutic

reaction doesn't often appear with a reduced dosage of the drug Sometimes the dosage will

need to be increased before a clinical reaction is shown. Each patient responds differently to

medications. Patient education is important enough that the patient doesn't feel they are the

subject of urgent attention. There have been no side effects in the client's life from the use of
