Expansion of technology and progression of sciences have led to wider access to agricultural and industrial drugs and chemicals, which has resulted in many problems. Both in wanted and unwanted ways people may take these toxic agents, which perhaps may be along with many unpredictable, life-threatening and mortal outcomes. Based on many studies, most of intentional poisonings arise from an origin of patients' psychological backgrounds, which confirms necessity and importance of the recent study.
This study aimed to study the prevalence of psychiatric disorders in patients with drug poisoning.
In this descriptive cross-sectional study, 116 cases of poisoning referred to emergency room of Ali-Ebn-Abitaleb Hospital in Rafsanjan city, Iran, were randomly selected. Frequency of anxiety among participants was evaluated through the Spielberger questionnaire. A past history of depression and obsession was also evaluated through interview by a psychiatrist based on diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders (DSM-5) criteria. All data were then collected and analyzed using SPSS version 17.
Anxiety, as the second most common reason of psychiatric disorders in cases of poisoning, with a prevalence of 12.1% in form of mild, 75.9% moderate and 12.1% severe, was confirmed among the participants of this study.
The prevalence of anxiety among cases of poisoning with both drugs and chemicals are noticeably higher than general population. This fact strongly suggests the necessity of in-advance consultation and treatment of any underlying psychiatric disorders of patients to prevent prospective complications.
技术的发展和科学的进步使人们更容易接触到农用和工业用药物及化学品，这引发了许多问题。人们可能有意或无意地接触这些有毒物质，这可能会带来许多不可预测的、危及生命的致命后果。基于多项研究，大多数故意中毒事件源于患者的心理背景，这证实了本研究的必要性和重要性。
本研究旨在探讨药物中毒患者精神障碍的患病率。
在这项描述性横断面研究中，随机选取了116例转诊至伊朗拉夫桑詹市阿里 - 伊本 - 阿比塔勒医院急诊室的中毒病例。通过斯皮尔伯格问卷评估参与者的焦虑频率。还根据《精神障碍诊断与统计手册》（DSM - 5）标准，由精神科医生通过访谈评估抑郁和强迫症的既往病史。然后使用SPSS 17版收集和分析所有数据。
在本研究的参与者中，焦虑是中毒病例中第二常见的精神障碍原因，轻度患病率为12.1%，中度为75.9%，重度为12.1%。
药物和化学品中毒病例中的焦虑患病率明显高于普通人群。这一事实强烈表明，有必要对患者的任何潜在精神障碍进行预先咨询和治疗，以预防潜在并发症。
