17. CASE FORMULATIONDiscussion of diagnosis, differential diagnosis, investigations, causes and management
(Answers on next page!)
Description:Mr. Hassan is a twenty-three year-old unmarried self-employed. He was admitted as anemergency one week ago after being taken to the casualty department by his neighbours. Hehad shown increasingly disturbed behaviour in the last three months, with persecutorydelusions of being followed by the CIA, and believed that they were using laser beams tocontrol his actions. He had heard voices discussing plans to kill him, and on the day ofadmission had destroyed most of his possessions whilst apparently searching for a videocamera, which he thought, had been planted in his room. He had started to becomewithdrawn socially four years previously, in his final year at high school. He has been anabove average student. He had cared for himself adequately but showed little motivation orinterest in social activities. Apparently he has been taking some drugs secretly on regularbasis.
On mental state examination he appeared fully conscious, his clothes were untidy, and hewas suspicious in manner, and he paced the room. There was no spontaneous speech andhe appeared secretive when answering questions, but talk was coherent and relevant. Hismood was subjectively all right but he appeared tense and frightened and sweatedprofusely. He was secretive about the recent destruction of his possessions. During theinterview he appeared to be distracted, listening and talking to voices on several occasions,but denied this when asked. He was correctly oriented in time and place. He would notcooperate with formal tests of cognitive function but correctly identified and had learned thenames of the ward staff and gave an accurate account a recent visit from his parents. Hethought he was not ill but needed help- probably police protection and was willing to remainin hospital because he said he felt safer.
On physical examination he was thin, with evidence of self-neglect, but no other abnormality.

22/31
Probable response for case formulation: Mr. Hassan
1. Differential Diagnosisa) Paranoid Schizophrenia: Characterized by the persistent delusions of persecution,
control and auditory hallucinations discussing the patient. The history prior to thissuggests the slow development of apathy, lack of motivation, social isolation and
gradual development of hallucinations. Drug abuse may be secondary toSchizophrenia.b) Psychotic disorder due to drug abuse (symptomatic schizophrenia). The symptoms
that have occurred in the last three months are consistent with the acute psychoses,which are associated with cannabis particularly following prolonged use. Thepossibility of other drug and alcohol effects must also be considered despite thepatients denial of abuse.
c) Psychosis secondary to other organic conditions.
2. Aetiology
Predisposing factors: Family history indicates that his maternal uncle is having
mental health problem (treated at Mathari Hospital), and one of his brothers hasshown social deterioration similar to the patients, so there may be a geneticpredisposition to schizophrenia. There is no evidence of perinatal or developmentalproblems or of personality problems before the last four years.
Precipitating factors: The social withdrawal and deterioration started in his finalyear at high school when he had the stress of impending Final Examinations followedby death of his father. The more recent deterioration followed within weeks of thebroken relationship with his girlfriend.
Maintaining factor: Cannabis use
3. Investigations
Medical records of the uncle and brother (if possible) Further history from his parents, particularly concerning his family history,childhood development, and pre-morbid personality, and from his neighbours about hisrecent state.
Psychological. Observation of his beliefs, perceptions and behaviour- includingpossible drug or alcohol ingestion. Examination of cognitive aspects of mental state. Itwill also be necessary to assess his insight into psychosis and drug abuse and hislikely compliance with management.
Physical investigations should include haematology,
Social. Observation of the extent of his social withdrawal on the ward and ofrelationships with his family, girlfriend, neighbours and workmates. Consider whether
there is evidence of high expressed emotion. When his mental state improves,assess his abilities and strengths in occupational and other settings in order to planaspects of rehabilitation, including self-care, occupation and recreation.
4. Treatment
Depending on the setting, if dispensary the patient should kept under observation for24 hours as he was willing to be admitted and accept treatment. If is at Health centerthe patient should be admitted as a voluntary patient.
Physical. Start drug treatment such as Chlorpromazine or Haloperidal on regularbasis, a dose which will have to be adjusted depending on response and possible

unwanted effects. The client is likely to require long-term medication preferably withdepot injections to improve adherence. He will need counseling regarding the effectsof drug abuse and encouragement to remain abstinent.
Psychological and social. Initially he should be allowed to avoid pressures ofinvolvement in a group activities, but as psychotic symptoms settle down there shouldbe increasing emphasis on rehabilitation e.g. self-care and social activities. The patientand family members will need information on the condition and how they can
contribute to its management. Follow- up at OPD for depot medication is important.
5. Prognosis
Factors suggesting a poor outcome include insidious onset, prolonged duration, andnegative symptoms.
However, there are also some favourable factors- the lack of problems in his pre-morbid personality, his good educational record and work, and support from family.
If cannabis abuse has been an important cause and he becomes abstinent this willgreatly improve the outcome.
