To examine the pattern of out-patient mental health care referrals for military personnel deployed to the Falklands Islands, 1986-96.
Data from referral books of British Military Community Mental Health Nurses based in the Falkland Islands were abstracted, entered into an electronic database and analysed.
Over the period 1986-96, 538 Service personnel were referred to the mental health out-patient facility on the Falkland Islands. The majority were male (96%) and junior ranks (81%). Approximately a third of patients were referred for reasons relating to alcohol (31%) and for over two-thirds of patients no follow-up was required (68%). Differences were observed by Service with the Army having more referrals due to alcohol than the other two Services, whilst the Navy had more deliberate self-harm referrals and the RAF more referrals for anxiety.
The lack of information on the total population deployed to the Falkland Islands over this period limits the interpretation of the results.
研究1986 - 1996年被部署到福克兰群岛的军事人员的门诊心理健康护理转诊模式。
提取了福克兰群岛英国军事社区心理健康护士转诊记录中的数据，录入电子数据库并进行分析。
在1986 - 1996年期间，538名服役人员被转诊至福克兰群岛的心理健康门诊机构。大多数为男性（96%）和初级军衔（81%）。约三分之一的患者因酒精相关原因被转诊（31%），超过三分之二的患者无需后续跟进（68%）。各军种之间存在差异，陆军因酒精问题被转诊的人数比其他两个军种更多，而海军有更多因蓄意自我伤害被转诊的病例，皇家空军有更多因焦虑被转诊的病例。
这段时期内被部署到福克兰群岛的总人口信息缺失，限制了对结果的解读。
