10 Cognitive behavioural therapy Problems arise from Cognitive distortions, learned negative beliefs and thought processes Goals: Identify and alter self destructive thoughts, therapist is an active guide Concentrates on coping strategies and problem solving Fixed duration, broadly useful, active client
11 What works in MS? Few studies of CBT in MS Few drug trials in MS, desipramine, sertraline 63 with MS and major depression randomised (Mohr 2001) CBT= Sertraline > supportive group therapy

14 How much of a problem? Over half of people with MS will have some dysfunction on detailed testing Approximately 10% will have severe problems May occur early in the disease Often not related to physical disability
15 The impacts are felt strongly Younger Working and families The double blow of physical and cognitive dysfunction Community resources for people with cognitive problems are directed towards elderly
16 What can we do? 1. Identify the problem 2. Treat MS factors that impact 1. Medical problems: Nutrition, infections 2. Medication / drugs and alcohol 3. Fatigue 4. Depression 3. Can we delay cognitive decline? 4. Management Early and late The role of medication
17 Delaying cognitive loss: Does reducing inflammation help? People with relapsing remitting MS on DMTs have less loss of brain volume In SP MS, people treated with interferon had less deterioration on PASAT testing
18 How much of a problem is fatigue in MS? Silent symptom thus under recognised Most commonly reported symptom in most series Prevalence of up to 80% 2/3 rate fatigue as amongst the three worst symptoms
19 What is fatigue? Subjective lack of physical or mental energy perceived by individual or carer to interfere with usual or desired activities. Limits functional activities or QOL Acute < 6 weeks; chronic > 6 weeks. 50% of the time

Open label study of 50 patients Clear improvement in 87%. Mean improvement in FSS and ESS RCT 115, improvement in FSS in treated and placebo- no significant difference between these.
29 It is all very well studying mental health in MS- What can we do about it?
30 Limitations : Patient & carers Stigma I am not weak / mad I wont see a shrink! I wont take drugs Lack of knowledge what can you do? Its natural to be depressed in this situation Limited access to mental health services
31 Limitations to care: MS and mental health services Lack of training/ experience /knowledge confidence- Neurology about mental health and vice versa! Our own prejudices Difficult patients
32 Limitations to care: The system separates Hospital and primary care General medical and mental health services Medical and social services Services for patient and carers The mind body divide is still around!!
33 Do nothing! Models of care Refer to psychiatrists Get the GP to sort it out Do it ourselves Hospital psychologist Good for articulate, middle class, educated, accessible CPN
34 Community psychiatric nurse Lots of them! Practical and pragmatic training Hospital and community Medication and therapies Links with social services
35 CPN: Practicalities Three year project Funded by MS Society (and Teva) Based at Kings and the Dept of Psychiatric nursing & neuropsychiatry at the IOP.
36 Role of CPN Individual case load Educational Referral and management guidelines Audit
37 Structure of service Referral for assessment from MS professional Assessed by CPN including formal measures of mood, cognition and fatigue Discharged Treatment plan CPN case Medication CBT Liaison Referral Neuropsychometry Neuropsychiatry Review outcomes
