Abstract
En el presente trabajo se expone el tratamiento
de un trastorno depresivo en un individuo con
un diagnóstico de esquizofrenia. El paciente ha
recibido un tratamiento basado en los principios
de la Terapia de Activación Conductual durante
diez semanas. Las medidas utilizadas (CDSS,
PANSS, EROS) indican una mejoría significativa
de la sintomatología depresiva, dejando de cumplir
criterios de episodio depresivo, mejoría en
la sintomatología, tanto psicótica como general,
y un aumento en los niveles del reforzamiento
positivo percibido. Estos resultados se han mantenido
en el seguimiento de diez semanas. Estudios
futuros deberían de confirmar estos datos
iniciales.
Treatment for a man with depressive disorder and diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia is set out. The intervention was based on the Behavioral Activation Therapy for ten weeks. Pretreatment measures (CDSS, PANSS, EROS) show a significant improvement. Depressive disorder was in remission and we find a remarkable improvement in symptoms, psychotic as well as general symptomatology. We also find an increased levels of perceived positive reinforcement. Improvement has been remained until ten weeks monitoring. The good outcomes obtained in this case support the model proposed by Behavioral Activation to reduce depression in a patient with schizophrenia. Next reserch must confirm this inicial data.
