English to Spanish: Schizophrenia General field: Medical
Source text - English Abstract
The long-term management of schizophrenia poses a major public health challenge. The case for integrating multiple therapeutic approaches and modalities is clear, especially with the issues faced by schizophrenia patients in terms of suicide, homicide and violent behaviour. This non- systematic review of published literature about this topic shows that schizophrenia and other psychoses are associated with violence and violent offending, particularly homicide.Most of the excess risk appears to be mediated by substance abuse comorbidity. The risk in these patients with comorbidity is similar to that for substance abuse without psychosis and schizophrenia patients who adhere to prescribed medication are no more likely than the general population to commit violent crimes, unless drugs and alcohol are involved. Suicide is the leading cause of death in patients with schizophrenia – approximately 10% of patients with schizophrenia will die as a result of suicide. Poor adherence to medication has been shown to be a risk factor for completed suicide in schizophrenia. Long-acting medications delivered via depot method may be one approach to improving adherence to medication and thus reduce risk of suicide and violent behaviour in patients with schizophrenia.
Translation - Spanish Resumen
El tratamiento de la esquizofrenia a largo plazo supone un desafío en lo que respecta a la salud pública. Los motivos para integrar diversos enfoques terapéuticos y modalidades son claros, sobre todo en lo que respecta a los problemas a los que los pacientes con esquizofrenia se enfrentan en términos de suicidio, homicidio y conducta violenta. La presente revisión no sistemática del material publicado sobre este tema muestra que la esquizofrenia y otro tipo de psicosis están asociadas a la violencia y a los delitos violentos, especialmente al homicidio. La mayor parte del exceso de riesgo parece estar mediado por la comorbilidad del abuso de sustancias. El riesgo en los pacientes con comorbilidad es similar al que supone el abuso de sustancias en pacientes sin trastornos psicóticos. A no ser que consuman drogas o alcohol, los pacientes con esquizofrenia que se adhieren al tratamiento prescrito no son más susceptibles de cometer delitos violentos que el el resto de la población. El suicidio es la causa principal de muerte en pacientes con esquizofrenia: aproximadamente el 10% de pacientes que la sufren morirán por suicidio. La baja adherencia al tratamiento prescrito muestra un factor de riesgo que puede conducir al suicidio. El tratamiento a largo plazo suministrado via depósito puede ser una solución para que los pacientes con esquizofrenia se adhieran al tratamiento y de esa forma se reduzca el riesgo de suicidio y la conducta violenta.

Source text - English ABSTRACT
Non-adherence to prescribed antipsychotic drugs by schizophrenia patients is a major cause of treatment failure and poor functional outcomes, and increases the likelihood of psychiatric hospitalization, which in turn increases the overall cost of care. Non-adherence to therapy has also been associated with a greater propensity to violent acts, including suicide, substance abuse, and related behavior. Moreover, with persistence of symptoms, people with schizophrenia find it hard to remain employed and become increasingly socially excluded. It is particularly important to ensure adherence to therapy during the early phase of the disease process, as this may greatly impact long-term treatment outcomes. As treatment adherence is a complex phenomenon affected by interacting parameters, such as psychopathology, poor insight, medication-related factors, social support, comorbidities, associated substance abuse, and patient–physician relationship, a multifaceted approach to improving treatment compliance that includes both psychosocial and pharmacological therapeutic measures is required. Long-acting injectable (LAI) formulations of antipsychotic drugs have the potential to reduce non-adherence and consequently improve clinical outcomes. In particular, LAI risperidone, a second-generation antipsychotic agent, has yielded significant improvements in overall symptoms, quality of life and patient satisfaction, and reduced hospitalization, compared to oral antipsychotics, in patients with schizophrenia. When used in early psychosis, LAI risperidone has been associated with sustained remission in a majority of cases. Inadequate adherence to antipsychotic drugs compromises treatment outcomes in schizophrenia patients. LAI preparations of antipsychotic drugs have the potential to improve adherence to therapy and treatment outcomes in these patients.
Translation - Spanish RESUMEN
La falta de adherencia a los medicamentos antipsicóticos recetados para la esquizofrenia es una de las principales causas del fracaso del tratamiento y de resultados funcionales bajos, además de aumentar la probabilidad de hospitalización psiquiátrica que a su vez aumenta el coste general de la atención médica. La falta de adherencia a la terapia también se ha asociado hacia una mayor propensión a los actos violentos, suicido incluido, abuso de sustancias y conductas vinculadas. Además, si existe una persistencia de los síntomas, las personas con esquizofrenia encuentran difícil mantener un trabajo y quedan cada vez más excluidas socialmente. Es especialmente importante asegurarse de que se cumple la adherencia a la terapia en la fase inicial del proceso de la enfermedad, ya que puede tener un gran impacto en los resultados del tratamiento a largo plazo. Dado que la adherencia al tratamiento es un fenómeno complejo en el que influyen e interactúan diversos parámetros, como la psicopatología, la poca conciencia de la enfermedad, los factores relacionados con la medicación, el apoyo social, las comorbilidades, el abuso de sustancias asociado y la relación entre médico y paciente. Se necesita un enfoque multidisciplinario para mejorar el cumplimiento del tratamiento que incluya medidas terapéuticas psicosociales y farmacológicas. Las fórmulas de los fármacos antipsicóticos inyectables de acción prolongada (LAI, por su sigla en inglés) tienen el potencial de reducir la falta de adherencia y consecuentemente, mejorar los resultados clínicos. Particularmente la risperidona inyectable de acción prolongada, un agente antipsicótico de segunda generación, ha producido mejorías importantes en los síntomas generales de los pacientes con esquizofrenia, en su calidad de vida y su satisfacción personal, además de haber reducido el número de hospitalizaciones, en comparación con los antipsicóticos orales. La risperidona LAI se ha asociado a la remisión sontenida en la mayoría de los casos que se ha utilizado en las primeras etapas de la psicosis. La adherencia inadecuada a los fármacos antipsicóticos compromete los resultados del tratamiento de los pacientes con esquizofrenia. Los preparados LAI de fármacos antipsicóticos tienen el potencial de mejorar la adherencia a la terapia y los resultados del tratamiento de estos pacientes.
