Increased 12-Month Prevalence Rates of Mental Disorders in Patients with Chronic Somatic DiseasesHärter, Martin, Baumeister, Harald, Reuter, Katrin, Jacobi, Frank, Höfler, Michael, Bengel, Jürgen, Wittchen, Hans-Ulrich 22 November 2012 (has links) (PDF)
Background: Although it is well established that chronic somatic diseases are significantly associated with a wide range of psychopathology, it remains unclear to what extent subjects with chronic somatic diseases are at increased risk of experiencing mental disorders. The present epidemiological study investigates age- and sex-adjusted 12-month prevalence rates of mental disorders in patients with cancer, and musculoskeletal, cardiovascular and respiratory tract diseases, based on comprehensive physicians’ diagnoses and compared with physically healthy probands.
Methods: Prevalence rates were calculated from two large epidemiological surveys. These studies investigated inpatients and patients from the general population with cancer (n = 174) and musculoskeletal (n = 1,416), cardiovascular (n = 915) and respiratory tract diseases (n = 453) as well as healthy controls (n = 1,083). The prevalence rates were based on the Munich Composite International Diagnostic Interview, a standardized interview for the assessment of mental disorders.
Results: Prevalence rates were very similar for inpatients (43.7%) and patients from the general population (42.2%). The adjusted odds ratios (OR) of patients with chronic somatic diseases were significantly elevated for mental disorders in comparison with healthy probands (OR: 2.2). Mood, anxiety and somatoform disorders were most frequent. The prevalence rates did not differ significantly between the somatic index diseases. The number of somatic diseases per patient had a higher association with mental disorders.
Conclusions: There is a strong relationship between chronic somatic diseases and mental disorders. A future task is to improve the care of mental disorders in patients with chronic physical illness, specifically with multimorbid conditions.

Copingstrategier hos personer som varit sjukskrivna mellan 3 och 6 månaderHidman, Karin, Jahr, Catarina January 2011 (has links)
Bakgrund: Personer med muskuloskeletala och psykiska diagnoser står för 57 % av sjukskrivningarna i Västerås. Majoriteten av dessa är kvinnor. Det har blivit vanligare att man, vid rehabilitering, förutom personens fysiska funktion även beaktar psykiska aspekter, så som copingstrategier. Syfte: Att kartlägga de mest förekommande copingstrategierna hos personer som varit sjukskrivna mellan 3 och 6 månader och att undersöka eventuella skillnader i copingstrategier mellan män och kvinnor samt mellan personer med psykiska och muskuloskeletala besvär. Metod: En enkätbaserad deskriptiv tvärsnittsstudie genomfördes. Urvalet var ett bekvämlighetsurval som rekryterades i samarbete med Sjukskrivningskommittén och Försäkringskassan i Västerås. Åttio personer tillfrågades om deltagande varav 40 personer var sjukskrivna på grund av psykiska besvär och fyrtio på grund av en muskuloskeletala besvär. Resultat/Slutsats: Tjugo personer deltog i studien. Av dessa var 17 kvinnor och 3 män, 16 personer hade muskuloskeletala besvär och 4 psykiska besvär. De mest förekommande copingstrategierna inom gruppen långtidssjukskrivna var att öka aktivitet, smärtbeteende och självstärkande. Det är vanligare med katastroftankar hos personer med muskuloskeletala besvär än hos personer med psykiska besvär. Ingen skillnad mellan män och kvinnor kunde analyseras eftersom könsfördelningen bland deltagarna var ojämnt fördelad. Det går ej att dra några absoluta slutsatser utifrån resultatet på grund av det stora bortfallet och det låga deltagarantalet. / Background: People with musculoskeletal and mental disorders account for 57% of sick leave in Västerås. The majority of these are women. It has become more common in rehabilitation that also to take into account psychological aspects, such as coping strategies. Objective: To identify the most prevalent coping strategies in persons on sick leave between 3 and 6 months and to analyze possible differences in coping strategies between men and women as well as between people with mental and musculoskeletal disorders. Method: A questionnaire-based descriptive cross-sectional study. A convenience sample was invited to participate the sample was recruited in cooperation with Sjukskrivningskommittén and Försäkringskassan in Västerås. Eighty persons were asked for participation of which 40 were on sick leave due to mental disorders and 40 due to musculoskeletal disorders. Results/Conclusion: Twenty people participated in the study. Of these were 17 women and three were men. Of those, 16 people had a musculoskeletal disorder and four had a mental disorder. The most prevalent coping strategies within the group long-term sickness was increasing activity, pain anxiety and self-reinforcing. People with musculoskeletal disorders had more catastrophizing thoughts than people with mental disorders. No difference between men and women were possible to analyse because the gender distribution among the participants were uneven. The small sample size and high drop- out rate does not allow any absolute conclusions based on the study results.

Psychische Störungen bei Patienten mit muskuloskelettalen und kardiovaskulären Erkrankungen im Vergleich zur Allgemeinbevölkerung / Mental disorders in patients with muscoskeletal and cardiovascular diseases in comparison to the general populationBaumeister, Harald, Höfler, Michael, Jacobi, Frank, Wittchen, Hans-Ulrich, Bengel, Jürgen, Härter, Martin 09 October 2012 (has links) (PDF)
Hintergrund: Ein signifikanter Anteil der Patienten mit einer chronischen körperlichen Erkrankung weist eine komorbide psychische Störung auf. Ob und in welchem Ausmaß sich die Prävalenzraten psychischer Störungen bei Patienten mit einer chronischen Erkrankung von denen der Allgemeinbevölkerung unterscheiden, ist bislang noch kaum untersucht. Fragestellung: Die vorliegende epidemiologische Studie untersucht geschlechts- und altersadjustierte 4-Wochen, 12-Monats- und Lebenszeitprävalenzen psychischer Störungen bei Rehabilitationspatienten mit muskuloskelettalen und kardiovaskulären Erkrankungen im Vergleich zu Prävalenzraten der Allgemeinbevölkerung. Methode: Die Daten der drei Stichproben (N = 4192) basieren jeweils auf einem zweistufigen, epidemiologischen Untersuchungsansatz mit einer schriftlichen Befragung der Patienten bzw. Probanden zu ihrem psychischen Befinden (GHQ-12; M-CIDI-S) und einem anschließenden Interview (M-CIDI) bei einem randomisiert ausgewählten Teil der Gesamtstichprobe. Ergebnisse: Mit adjustierten Lebenszeitprävalenzen von 59.3 % (OR: 1.6) und 56.2 % (OR: 1.4) weisen die Patienten mit einer muskuloskelettalen und kardiovaskulären Erkrankung im Vergleich zur Allgemeinbevölkerung (47.9 %) eine deutlich erhöhte Prävalenz psychischer Störungen auf. Am häufigsten sind affektive Störungen (22.5 % bis 34.9%) und Angststörungen (18.4 % bis 33.8 %). Schlussfolgerung: Der im Vergleich zur Allgemeinbevölkerung deutliche Zusammenhang zwischen chronischen körperlichen Erkrankungen und psychischen Störungen verdeutlicht die Bedeutsamkeit einer verstärkten Diagnostik und Behandlung komorbider psychischer Störungen bei chronisch erkrankten Patienten. / Background: A significant part of patients with chronic diseases have comorbid mental disorders. However, by now it is nearly unexplored if and to what extend the prevalence rates of mental disorders in patients with chronic diseases differ from the rates of the general population. Objective: The present epidemiologic study investigates sex- and age-adjusted 4-week, 12-months, and lifetime prevalence rates of mental disorders in inpatients with musculoskeletal and cardiovascular diseases compared to prevalence rates of the general population. Methods: In each sample (N = 4192), the data based on a two-stage epidemiologic design. The first stage entailed the use of a screening questionnaire for mental disorders (GHQ-12; M-CIDI-S). The second stage consisted of an interview (M-CIDI) of a randomised part of the sample. Results: The adjusted lifetime prevalence in both clinical samples (musculoskeletal: 59.3 %, OR 1.6; cardiovaskular: 56.2 %, OR 1.4) is high compared to the rate of the general population (47.9 %). Affective disorders (22.5 % to 34.9 %) and anxiety disorders (18.4% to 33.8 %) are the most common disorders. Conclusions: Compared to the general population there is a clear correlation between chronic diseases and mental disorders, that shows the importance of an improved diagnostic and treatment of patients suffering from comorbid mental disorders.
