Item Psychological interventions in the care of people diagnosed with epilepsy(CEP USM, 2024) Doțen, NataliaThis article explores psychological interventions in the care of people diagnosed with epilepsy. The paper includes a literature review of the types of psychological interventions and the most effective psychotherapeutic interventions used in epilepsy centres. The focus is on identifying the most effective current methods, techniques, and psychological interventions for improving cognitive, affective, and behavioural processes in subjects with epilepsy. The article reveals the complexity of psychological interventions at the cognitive level which include compensatory strategies in cognitive rehabilitation (memory, attention, and language), psychological strategies at the affective level and psychological techniques at the behavioural level. Thus, we believe that psychological interventions can contribute to increased emotional stability, increased self-confidence, increased compliance with medication, increased trust in medical professionals, openness to society - all of which contribute to increased quality of life for people with epilepsy.Item ASSESSMENT OF PSYCHOLOGICAL WELL-BEING IN STROKE PATIENTS(CEP USM, 2022-11-29) Santos, Carolina; Loureiro, Manuel; Carvalho, Paula; Gama, JorgeStroke is one of the most common diseases worldwide with the most impact on patients' lives. The emergence of this sudden event has a significant impact when it comes to psychological well-being (PWB). The data we now present were obtained from a broader study of coping strategies and the assessment of PWB. In this poster, we take the opportunity to present the data obtained on the perception of PWB in victims of Stroke, assisted in the stroke units of two Portuguese reference district hospitals. To obtain these data, a sociodemographic questionnaire, a clinical form and the reduced version of the Psychological Well-Being Scales [1, 2] were applied. 159 individuals participated in this investigation, 94 males and 65 females, with a mean age of 66.35 years. The main results obtained show statistically significant differences in PWB as a function of age, gender, marital status and educational attainment. From these data, we draw implications for a better adequacy of psychological interventions with people who are victims of stroke. The increasing incidence of this pathology implies a more active promotion in terms of Psychological health, so that survivors can perceive the benefit of using adaptive behaviors that promote greater PWB in their lives.
