Methods have been developed to screen non psychotic disorders in general health clinics based only on non-specific and somatic symptoms. One such method developed in India was applied in a heterogenous group of patients in a different clinical setting. The validity of nonspecific symptom screening method for non psychotic illness was replicated in this study. This method of screening is recommended for routine use in screening for minor psychiatric morbidity in medical and surgical clinics.
已经开发出了一些方法，仅根据非特异性和躯体症状，在一般健康诊所中筛查非精神病障碍。在印度开发的这样一种方法已应用于不同临床环境中的一组异质患者。本研究复制了这种非特异性症状筛查方法对非精神病性疾病的有效性。建议在医学和外科诊所中常规使用这种筛查方法来筛查轻度精神疾病。
