Description

Dr. Mark Oldham, Associate Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Rochester Medical Center, President of the American Delirium Society, and Deputy Editor of the Journal of the Academy of Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry, returns to discuss management of catatonia. We delve into management guidelines that everyone working with catatonia should know. We then have a candid discussion about common clinical challenges in treating catatonia, and describe unique cases of catatonia that require adjusting our approach.
