RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: This study evaluated the acceptance, feasibility and safety of a short-term group program for adults (18 years and older) and youth (16 to 18 years) with borderline personality disorder (BPD) symptoms. Termed Road Maps, the content and development were informed by common treatment factors identified from evidence-based therapies for BPD. METHOD: Two-hundred and eight people consented to participate in the research trial and completed baseline measures. Intervention participants rated the acceptability and subjective experience of the group. Attrition rates informed feasibility, and serious adverse events were tracked to identify potential harms. RESULTS: Participant post-group ratings of the group's acceptability and subjective experience were above average across both adult and youth populations. Attrition rate after commencement of group was 38% for adults and 27% among youth. The incidence rate of emergency department presentations was reduced by 41% in the 6 months post-group, relative to 6 months pre-group. CONCLUSIONS: The current study provides preliminary support for the acceptability and feasibility of a short-term group therapy program for people with a diagnosis of BPD. Road Maps may be a useful intermediate intervention in a broader model of stepped care.

RESUMEN

The prevalence of borderline personality disorder (BPD) in the general population is estimated to be 1.8 % whereas the rates of BPD among people in prison have been reported between 9 and 30 %. To date, there are no published systematic reviews into the rates of BPD among adults in prison. Understanding the prevalence of BPD in this setting can help to inform prison-staff education, funding and intervention options, and adequate care for an already at-risk population. We aimed to explore the global prevalence of BPD diagnoses and self-reported symptomology among adults in prisons via systematic review and meta-analysis. We also aimed to explore gender differences between women and men in prison. Following the PRISMA guidelines, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of papers where a BPD diagnosis or self-reported symptoms were reported within a prison population of male or female adult offenders (18+ years). Our search yielded 33 studies comprising diagnostic interviews, and 15 studies which included self-reported symptom measures. The results indicated that for women and men in prison, the prevalence of BPD was (27.4 % and 18.8 %, respectively) when assessed via diagnostic interview. Results were similar for both women and men in studies that used a self-report measure to assess a BPD diagnosis (29.1 % and 16.4 %). Findings suggest that the prevalence of BPD in prisons should be considered when making decisions about mental health and criminogenic interventions. Self-report measures could be a resource-efficient method for screening prisoners for personality pathology in prison settings. Contemporary, well-structured, large-scale studies are required to better understand the prevalence of personality disorder in prisons.

RESUMEN

Gold Card SA is a four-session structured psychological intervention offered soon after an acute crisis presentation to people with symptoms characteristic of borderline personality disorder. This study describes individual and system-level outcomes from a large-scale health-care improvement initiative to implement Gold Card SA across South Australia. An uncontrolled pre-post study design was utilized examining service user (n = 332) patient-reported outcome measures and hospital service utilization records (6 months before and after Gold Card SA). Mixed-effects negative binomial regression analysis revealed a significant decrease in rates of service utilization across emergency department presentations (63%), mental health-related inpatient admissions (65%), and bed days (82%). Linear mixed-effect regression indicated large reductions in borderline symptoms and nonspecific psychological distress, and small to moderate improvements in psychosocial functioning. People presenting with or experiencing borderline personality disorder symptoms may benefit from a brief crisis intervention embedded within a stepped care model.

RESUMEN

There is a notable lack of literature evaluating peer support for people with a diagnosis of borderline personality disorder (BPD). Peer-led groups have been shown to positively impact outcomes related to empowerment, hope, and self-efficacy beliefs for consumers diagnosed with serious mental illness and may also be a helpful option for those experiencing personality disorder symptoms. We outline the coproduction of a peer group for people with a lived experience of BPD and a qualitative analysis of feedback post-group participation. Twenty-two consumers participated in post-group interviews and described their experiences of peer support. Interview transcripts were coded, and three main themes were identified: growth and change, connection and feeling understood, and creating safety. The findings suggested that participation in a coproduced peer support group for people with a diagnosis of BPD facilitated positive personal transformation as well as opportunities to develop connection through shared experiences in a safe environment grounded in mutuality. These themes were particularly powerful for participants because they countered previous experiences of not feeling safe, understood, or equal when seeking treatment. These findings support the acceptability of implementing a coproduced group for people diagnosed with BPD in a community mental health setting.

RESUMEN

The aim of this study was to explore mental health clinicians' opinions regarding the impact of a parental diagnosis of borderline personality disorder (BPD) on offspring and factors that may protect these children from developing emotional and/or behavioural difficulties. Expert opinions from 64 clinicians were collected through a voluntary and anonymous online qualitative survey. Thematic analysis of the data revealed five main themes relating to the impact of parental BPD symptoms on offspring. Children in these families were observed to develop behavioural, emotional and interpersonal difficulties, disturbances to cognitive processes and self dysfunction. A number of protective factors for offspring were also identified, such as supportive social networks, therapeutic intervention and child and parent characteristics. A model for the potential transgenerational transmission of emotional dysregulation from parent to child was proposed.
