NeuroFrontiers   /     Evaluating the Effects of Tardive Dyskinesia with the IMPACT-TD Scale

Shownotes

Host: Ashley Baker, MSN, PMHNP
Guest: Richard Jackson, MD

The IMPACT-TD scale enables us to evaluate the effects of tardive dyskinesia across four key domains: psychological/psychiatric, social, physical, and vocational/educational/recreational. By using this assessment tool, we can not only gain a deeper understanding of how our patients are impacted by tardive dyskinesia, but it can also foster better communication and treatment outcomes. To learn more, psychiatric nurse practitioner Ashley Baker speaks with Dr. Richard Jackson, Associate Clinical Professor at the Oakland Beaumont University School of Medicine and an Assistant Clinical Professor at the University of Michigan School of Medicine.
