However, the UK could address substance misuse (including caffeine) and unsafe sexual practices (Paquette et al, 2017) through public health promotion programmes in schools and communities (Pearson, 2012). Although effective reduction strategies for risky sexual behaviours in people with SMI are unclear, they could possibly be improved by targeted education (Hale et al, 2014).…”

What is already known about this topic• Individuals with severe mental illness (SMI) have elevated risks for physical health problems and low screening rates.• No previous studies have compared the physical health promotion needs of people with SMI using the same screening tool across different international settings. What this paper adds to existing knowledge• It appears feasible to use the HIP to profile and compare physical health-related risks in people with SMI across different international settings.• The HIP tool identified significant differences in areas of risk across the four countries. What are the implications for practice?• The HIP could be used to identify unique clusters of health promotion needs in different countries.• Use of HIP health checks may support implementation of individualized interventions.

This study was conducted to identify the metabolic parameters and body measurements associated with cardiovascular risks in a group of children and adolescents who as part of inpatient treatment received atypical antipsychotics at a psychiatric hospital in Turkey. Body mass indexes (BMIs), waist circumferences (WCs), diastolic blood pressures (DBPs), systolic blood pressures (SBPs) and heart rates (HRs) of the patients were evaluated during hospitalization and at discharge. A statistically significant difference was found among the mean BMIs, WCs, DBPs and HRs of the patients at the stages of their hospitalization and discharge (p < 0.05). On the basis of the study findings, it is recommended that mental health nurses evaluate these risk factors in children and adolescents and provide education on this subject to the patients and their families.
