Dr. Mark Oldham, Associate Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Rochester Medical Center, President of the American Delirium Society, and Deputy Editor of the Journal of the Academy of Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry, returns to discuss management of catatonia. We delve into management guidelines that everyone working with catatonia should know. We then have a candid discussion about common clinical challenges in treating catatonia, and describe unique cases of catatonia that require adjusting our approach.
