The first part of this three-part podcast will give you an approach to Emerging Child and Adolescent Psychosis. In this episode, listeners will 1) recognize and elicit warning and frank signs of psychosis, 2) propose a reasonable differential diagnosis for psychosis and identify medical work-up considerations, 3) understand risk factors for primary psychotic disorders, and 4) be familiar with assessment and treatment options. The podcast was created by Dr. Leslie Truong, a first year Psychiatry Resident at the University of Alberta, in collaboration with Dr. Trishnee Chinniah, a Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist at the Royal Alexandra Hospital.
