Sixty eight Feighner positive schizophrenic patients were followed up prospectively for a period of six years using standardized instruments. Disability was assessed in this sample using the Schedule for the Assessment of Psychiatric Disability at the end of 4, 5 and 6 years of follow up. It was found that the three year course of disability tended to be stable and fluctuations were minimal. Disability did not seem to be related to relapses. The implications of these findings in planning intervention programs for chronic schizophrenic patients are discussed.
68 例 Feighner 阳性精神分裂症患者使用标准化工具进行了为期六年的前瞻性随访。在本样本中,使用精神残疾评定量表(Schedule for the Assessment of Psychiatric Disability)在随访的第 4、5 和 6 年末评估残疾情况。结果发现,残疾的三年病程往往较为稳定,波动最小。残疾似乎与复发无关。这些发现对规划慢性精神分裂症患者的干预计划具有重要意义。
