Abstract

Alcohol-related problems made up 17.6% of the case load of psychiatric emergencies in an Indian general hospital. The police brought three-quarters of them, 45% for quarrels, street-fights and under influence of alcohol and 20% for minor offences like abusing in public. A psychiatric illness was definitely present in 40% of the cases. Only 10% of the patients with alcohol-related problems were referred for outpatient treatment. Eighty-five percent were not given any follow-up advice because the patients said they needed no help.

摘要

在一家印度综合医院，与酒精相关的问题占精神科急诊病例的17.6%。其中四分之三是由警方送来的，45%是因争吵、街头斗殴以及受酒精影响，20%是因在公共场合辱骂等轻微罪行。40%的病例确实存在精神疾病。只有10%有与酒精相关问题的患者被转介接受门诊治疗。85%的患者没有得到任何后续建议，因为患者表示他们不需要帮助。
