Second Generation Antipsychotics

Second generation antipsychotics (SGAs) can be effective in treating mood disorders in pediatric patients; however, these medications also present with a risk of serious adverse effects. A recent review by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) evaluated the use of SGAs in pediatric patients. This article summarizes the findings of the review, with a focus on bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.

Balance Problems

This article illustrates the potential of placing audiology services in a family physician’s practice setting to increase referrals of geriatric and pediatric patients to audiologists. The primary focus of family practice physicians is the diagnosis/intervention of critical systemic disorders (e.g., cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer). Hence concurrent hearing/balance disorders are likely to be overshadowed in such patients. If audiologists get referrals from these physicians and have direct access to diagnose and manage concurrent hearing/balance problems in these patients, successful audiology practice patterns will emerge, and there will be increased visibility and profitability of audiological services. As a direct consequence, audiological services will move into the mainstream of healthcare delivery, and the profession of audiology will move further towards its goals of early detection and intervention for hearing and balance problems in geriatric and pediatric populations.
