囤积症在老年人中。
Hoarding in the aged.
出版信息
Can Fam Physician. 1981 Oct;27:1538-43.
Hoarding has been observed in residents of a geriatric centre. The incidence varies from 11-13% on the standard and chronic nursing care floors to 53% on the special care floors.The activity was largely unobtrusive, but in some instances constituted an irritant or offensive activity towards fellow residents and others. Consequences can be serious when potentially harmful agents such as chemicals are inadvertently acquired. Hoarding of medication can likewise cause complications. Loss appears to be an important factor in the psychodynamics of hoarding. Insights into this behavior trait should bring tolerance of its presence and preventive action directed against the associated hazards.
囤积行为在老年中心的居民中有所观察。这种情况的发生率从标准和慢性护理楼层的 11-13%到特殊护理楼层的 53%不等。这种行为在很大程度上是不引人注目的，但在某些情况下，它会对同楼层的居民和其他人构成刺激或冒犯行为。当无意中获得潜在有害物质（如化学物质）时，后果可能会很严重。囤积药物也可能会导致并发症。失去似乎是囤积行为心理动力学中的一个重要因素。对这种行为特征的深入了解应该能带来对其存在的容忍，并采取预防措施来应对相关的危险。
