\nNew programs:<\/h2>\n
    \n
  • \nClinic for Outpatient Psychiatry Education (C.O.P.E.):<\/strong> \u00a0a student-centered outpatient teaching clinic to teach third-year medical students how to interview under the direct observation of psychiatry faculty.\u00a0In 2013, the clinic will explore the addition of psychiatric nurse practitioner faculty and trainees to create an interprofessional training model.
    \n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n
  • \nTelepsychiatry:
    \n\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n
      \n
    • \nThomas Magnuson, M.D.,<\/strong> has provided leadership and direct patient care for a novel clinical program which currently serves over 50 rural communities around the state. He provides access to a board-certified geriatric psychiatrist for rural nursing home patients with dementia-related behavioral problems, depression, delirium, and chronic mental illness such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. This unique service has received outstanding feedback from rural communities by providing state-of-the-art geriatric psychiatry assessment and treatment, which would otherwise not be available without transporting patients long distances to receive this care.<\/li>\n
    • \nR-Way is a model telepsychiatry site providing psychiatric care to a mental health clinic in Wayne, Neb. Through this service, patients with chronic mental illness who would otherwise not have local access to a psychiatrist are able to receive psychiatric assessment,\u00a0medication management, and problem solving advice.\u00a0The patients are able to communicate to a faculty psychiatrist and psychiatric resident at UNMC via high-definition, HIPAA-compliant videoconferencing.\u00a0Patients have liked this way of seeing a psychiatrist without having to travel many hours.\u00a0It is also convenient for the staff at Wayne, who are not required to make road trips with the patient.\u00a0It is a model that would be useful in other rural communities where psychiatrists are not readily available.\u00a0<\/li>\n
    • \nOur newest telepsychiatry development is at Chadron State College.\u00a0This outreach provides for the assessment and medication management\u00a0of students with psychiatric needs by way of telepsychiatry.\u00a0The connection is through a HIPAA-compliant network and provides a safe and secure way to see and hear the patient.\u00a0The computer connection allows seeing the patient in real time.\u00a0The patient can see the psychiatrist from his screen.\u00a0There has been strong satisfaction for this type of service.\u00a0The student does not have to travel to a distant clinic to receive treatment.\u00a0The provision of telepsychiatric care in a rural setting is an important direction for Nebraska’s health future.
      \n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
    • \nBehavioral Health Education Center of Nebraska (BHECN):<\/strong>\u00a0 Founded in 2009, BHECN’s mission is to recruit and retain the best students to enter mental health careers and to provide cutting edge training in behavioral health topics to primary care and mental health providers statewide.\u00a0Howard Liu, M.D.,<\/strong> a child & adolescent psychiatrist, is medical director of BHECN and co-leads the program with associate director, Brent Khan, Ed.D.,<\/strong> and associate clinical director, Michael Rice, Ph.D.<\/strong>\u00a0 The Department of Psychiatry has partnered with BHECN on three important initiatives:
      \n\u00a0<\/p>\n
        \n
      • \nRural Psychiatry Training<\/strong>:\u00a0 Integrating rural clinical sites and telepsychiatry into the psychiatry residency program.<\/li>\n
      • \nDepression Modules<\/strong>:\u00a0 Creating online curricula on depression for primary care and behavioral health providers which have been accessed across Nebraska and nationally in more than 40 states.<\/li>\n
      • \nAmbassador Program<\/strong>:\u00a0 Mentoring high school, college, and professional school students to consider mental health careers.
        \n\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
      • \nBuilding Healthy Futures school-based mental health clinic<\/strong>s: Child and adolescent psychiatry consultation is provided by two members of the Department of Psychiatry to three OPS elementary schools as part of the school-based health clinics’ partnership with Building Healthy Futures and OneWorld Community Health Center.
        \n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n
      • \nPost-Pediatrics Portal Program: <\/strong>The Creighton-Nebraska Psychiatry Training Program is one of four training sites in the country to offer this unique opportunity. This training is designed for pediatricians who want to retrain in child and adolescent psychiatry and builds on a core set of skills from pediatrics training, expanding trainees’ expertise to integrate the core competencies in psychiatry and child and adolescent psychiatry. We provide an abbreviated structured training program for pediatricians from training programs accredited through the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education to become eligible for certification in psychiatry and child and adolescent psychiatry (CAP) within a three-year time period. This involves spending the equivalent of 18 months in adult psychiatry rotations and programming, as well as 18 months in CAP rotations and programming.
        \n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        \nSignificant research grants\/publications:<\/h2>\n

        \n\u00a0
        \nThe department has a lengthy history of investigating novel treatments for major depression. These clinical studies are usually done as multi-center randomized, controlled trials and are important because\u00a010-20 percent of people with major depression do not respond to available treatments. Two ongoing studies are presented as examples:<\/p>\n

        \nSynchronized Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (sTMS)<\/strong>: We are currently testing\u00a0a new form of magnetic brain stimulation to treat depression using a new form of\u00a0transcranial magnetic stimulation. This device generates a sinusoidal magnetic field set at precisely the average Intrinsic Alpha Frequency (IAF) calculated from the subject’s electroencephalogram (EEG).\u00a0 The purpose of this study is to test whether this type of stimulation can be helpful for persons who have not responded to available treatments for depression.<\/p>\n

        \nIntravenous antidepressant therapy for refractory depression<\/strong>:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0This study is the first large-scale investigation of a novel medication, given as an intravenous infusion, for persons who have not responded to other treatments for depression. This is an important study since the study compound has an unique mechanism of action that differs from all currently available treatments and may have a more rapid onset of action than oral medications.
        \n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

        \nClinical trials in child & adolescent psychiatry<\/h2>\n

        \n\u00a0
        \nCurrent pediatric psychopharmacology trials are examining interventions for patients with ADHD, generalized anxiety disorder, and Fragile X syndrome.\u00a0<\/p>\n

        \nComputerized screening in adolescents with substance or psychiatric disorder.<\/strong>\u00a0This study is comparing a clinician-administered diagnostic assessment via tele-video to a computerized version of the same diagnostic assessment.\u00a0The trial is being conducted in partnership with the Center for Psychological Consultation in Madison, Wis., and is funded by the National Institutes of Health via a SBIR grant.\u00a0<\/p>\n

        \nInnovative studies of novel drug for subjects with Fragile X syndrome.<\/strong>\u00a0We currently have four ongoing multi-center trials, two for adolescents and two for adults, to study the safety, efficacy and tolerability of\u00a0a novel drug intervention at neuronal sites\u00a0for the significant problem behaviors associated with Fragile X syndrome.\u00a0Two of the trials, which began in 2010, are lead-in protocols followed by open label, long-term extension studies.\u00a0These are important studies as our expertise was recognized by being among the very first sites recruited nationwide and for its ground-breaking research regionally seeking a target-specific treatment intervention of a hereditary developmental disorder without cure.
        \n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

        \nCollaborative research<\/h2>\n

        \n\u00a0
        \nPROTECT Study<\/strong>: This NIMH-funded study co-led by William Burke, M.D.,<\/strong> psychiatry, and William Lydiatt, M.D.,<\/strong> otolaryngology\/head & neck surgery, was designed to investigate whether depression that occurs in the context of treatment for head and neck cancer can be prevented. This is an extremely important question since developing depression during the course of treatment can impact the long-term course of the underlying illness. This study has recently completed enrollment and its preliminary findings support the idea that prophylactic antidepressant can significantly reduce the rate of development of new cases of depression.<\/p>\n

        \nABCDE Protocol Initiative at The Nebraska Medical Center<\/strong>: \u00a0Funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (Interdisciplinary Nursing Quality Research Initiative), this project is led by\u00a0PI Michele Balas, Ph.D.<\/strong>, College of Nursing, and Co-PI William Burke, M.D.<\/strong> It is designed\u00a0to implement, analyze, and disseminate an evidence-based, nurse-led, inter-professional, multi-component program focused on improving the care and outcomes of critically ill adults in all of the intensive care units at The Nebraska Medical Center.\u00a0The study has completed data collection, and preliminary findings suggest important positive effects on several important patient outcomes.
        \n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

        \nAlzheimer’s research<\/h2>\n

        \n\u00a0
        \nThe department has a more than 20-year history of clinical trials for potential treatments for Alzheimer’s disease. Recent trials have investigated both passive and active immunotherapies to reduce the burden of beta-amyloid in the brain, as well as trials of small molecules aimed at disrupting key pathways in the disease. Additional studies have looked at ways to impact the behavioral symptoms of the person with dementia as well as lessen the burden on caregivers.
