Objective: In this study, we evaluated to examine the short-term educational effects for drug abuse prevention, including lectures and students’ awareness of drug abuse.Method: A questionnaire consisting of eleven items and SD method-based image survey were conducted three times, prior to and following the lectures and after the summer vacation for first-year students of the Department of Pharmacy.Results: The numbers of responses to the questionnaire surveys conducted prior to and following the summer vacation were 323 (response rate: 95.8%) and 332 (response rate: 97.9%), respectively.  When asked: “Do you think that people should be allowed to use cannabis (illegal herbal drugs) as long as they do not cause any trouble to others”, 2.8 (3.4) and 6.9 (6.6)% of students answered “Yes” after the lectures prior to the summer vacation and following it, respectively; there were both increased.  Following the summer vacation, 28.6% of students answered “Yes” to the question: “Have you ever seen or heard of people using cannabis or illegal herbal drugs ?”  A total of 2.1% of students had been “solicited to use cannabis or illegal herbal drugs”, and all of them stated that it would be “easy to obtain illegal herbal drugs”.  As the reason for drug abuse by young people, 140 students (42.2%) cited “curiosity”, and 81.6%, or 271 students, stated that they would “refuse” to use any illegal drugs even if they were asked to do so.  The results of the SD method-based image survey suggested significant changes in students’ awareness of drug abuse during the summer vacation; they had the image of little risk on drug abuse prevention following the vacation.Conclusion: The effects of learning were not maintained in some first-year students because they faced a variety of temptations during the short summer vacation and their normative consciousness and images of drug abuse easily changed.  Therefore, it is necessary to provide lectures for new students to help them acquire accurate knowledge of drug abuse, enhance their normative consciousness, and increase their self-awareness as health care professionals, develop curriculums on a continuing basis, and deploy specialists so that students with psychological problems as identified by the survey, including stress, escapism, mental weakness, and anxiety, can consult them.

We established a practical training program to nurture pharmacists who can give smoking cessation instructions. The program was provided to 85 interns (45 males and 40 females) in Teikyo University Hospital. The one-day practical training was provided to groups comprised of five members each. The training consisted of studies on the adverse effects of smoking, general outlines of the outpatient smoking cessation service, experiencing Smokerlyzer, studies about smoking-cessation drugs, studies about a smoking cessation therapy using cognitive-behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing, and case studies applying role-playing. Before and after the practical training, we conducted a questionnaire survey consisting of The Kano Test for Social Nicotine Dependence (KTSND) and the assessment of the smoking status, changes in attitudes to smoking, and willingness and confidence to give smoking cessation instructions. The overall KTSND score significantly dropped from 14.1±4.8 before the training to 8.9±4.8 after the training. The confidence to give smoking cessation instructions significantly increased from 3.4±1.9 to 6.2±1.3. Regarding the correlation between the smoking status and willingness and confidence to give smoking cessation instructions, the willingness and confidence were lower among the group of interns who either smoked or had smoked previously, suggesting that smoking had an adverse effect. A total of 88.2% of the interns answered that their attitudes to smoking had “changed slightly” or “changed” as a result of the training, indicating changes in their attitudes to smoking. Given the above, we believe that our newly-established smoking cessation instruction training is a useful educational tool.

Objective: Caffeine may cause dependence and sleep disturbance, and interact with psychotropic drugs. Therefore, the caffeine intake of patients with mental disorders should be monitored. However, in Japan, there is no report on the effects of caffeine in mental disease patients or on their caffeine intake. Therefore, we conducted a questionnaire survey to clarify the perception of caffeine for psychiatric outpatients.Methods: We conducted an anonymous survey on caffeine recognition for outpatients at 8 medical institutions that advocate psychiatry.Results: We collected questionnaires from 180 people. The knowledge of foods containing caffeine tended to be high in those who had a positive attitude toward caffeine. More than 90% of those surveyed knew that coffee contains caffeine, but cocoa and jasmine tea were recognized by less than 25%. Of those surveyed, 39.4% consumed caffeine‐containing beverages at night. In addition, the rate of consumption of caffeine‐containing beverages tended to be higher at night because they had a positive attitude toward caffeine.Conclusion: The knowledge and intake situation of caffeine by patients with mental disorders differed depending on their interests and way of thinking about caffeine. As caffeine intake may influence psychiatric treatment, correct knowledge regarding caffeine is important.

Objective: The maintenance and improvement of medication adherence are important in psychiatry.  In the case of patients using home healthcare services, it is necessary to improve their medication adherence through multi-professional collaboration.  However, appropriate methods or measures to provide them with information regarding psychotropics and resolve their problems during home visits have yet to be clarified.  We aimed to promote the appropriate provision of such information in home healthcare services for patients with mental disorders by clarifying the current status and details of information needed during home visits.Methods: A questionnaire survey was conducted in April 2016, involving healthcare professionals who worked in 9 facilities providing home-visit services for patients with mental disorders.Results: A total of 116 (86 females and 30 males) responded, among whom nurses accounted for the majority, at 81.9%, followed by psychiatric social workers, at 10.3%, and occupational therapists, at 7.8%.  More than 97% of all respondents assessed medication adherence.  Medication guidance tended to be provided within 15 minutes (81.9%) during each home visit, and the most frequent duration of such guidance was 6 to 10 minutes (37.9%).  Patients most frequently asked about adverse drug effects (57.8%), and the health professionals most frequently faced difficulty answering such questions among all the questions asked (46.6%).  Materials needed during home visits included: <brochures explaining the therapeutic and adverse effects of drugs>, <photographs of drugs>, and <a list of generic drugs>.  Some respondents also noted the necessity of materials that are easy to carry.Conclusion: The results clarified the details of information to be provided on administering home healthcare services for patients with mental disorders.  As various professionals are engaged in such services, and they are expected to have a certain level of ability to provide information, systems to effectively support information provision by them may be needed.
