A system of outcome indicators for mental health care is urgently needed in order to ensure that clinicians, district health authorities, and directors of public health can monitor and evaluate mental health care. Theoretical aspects of health care indicators and the various classes of outcome measures available can be used to draw up a preliminary system of indicators of health care input, process and outcome for the major categories of mental illness, including schizophrenia, affective psychosis, neurosis, dementia, mental handicap, child psychiatry, forensic psychiatry, alcohol and drugs. Such a system is not intended to be definitive or exhaustive but rather to form a basis for development by clinicians, researchers and planners for their own requirements.
迫切需要一个精神卫生保健结果指标系统,以确保临床医生、地区卫生当局和公共卫生主任能够监测和评估精神卫生保健。卫生保健指标的理论方面以及现有的各类结果测量方法,可用于为精神疾病的主要类别,包括精神分裂症、情感性精神病、神经症、痴呆症、智力障碍、儿童精神病学、法医精神病学、酒精和药物问题,制定一个初步的卫生保健投入、过程和结果指标系统。这样一个系统并非旨在成为定论或详尽无遗的,而是旨在为临床医生、研究人员和规划人员根据自身需求进行开发奠定基础。
