The present study aimed to assess inter-rater reliability and prevalence of catatonia according to four diagnostic methods: Bush Francis Catatonia Rating Scale (BFCRS) both screening and complete scale, Braunig's Catatonia Rating Scale (CRS), ICD 10 and DSM5.
For inter-rater reliability, different raters evaluated patients using the definitions provides by the four scales: BFCRS Screen and Total, CRS, ICD10 and DSM5. Kippendorff'α was used to compute the inter-rater reliability. Concordance between different systems was assessed using spearman correlation. Prevalence of catatonia was studied using the four definitions in a clinical sample of consecutive adult admissions in a psychiatry ward of a tertiary care hospital.
The inter-rater reliability was found to be good for BFCRS Total (α=0.779), moderate for DSM5 and BFCRS screen (α=0.575 and α=0.514 respectively) and low for CRS and ICD10 (α=0.111 and α=0.018 respectively). BFCRS Total and DSM5 definitions of catatonia had highest concordance (r=0.892 p<0.001). In the prevalence sample of consecutive hospital admissions, the prevalence was found to be highest with the definitions of BFCRS Screen and ICD 10 (10.3%, confidence intervals [CI] 3.9% to 16.7%), followed by BFCRS Total and DSM5 definitions 6.9%, CI 1.6% to 12.2%) and while CRS yielded the lowest prevalence rate (3.4%, CI 0% to 7.2%).
Different methods used to determine catatonia in the clinical sample yield different prevalence of this condition.
本研究旨在根据四种诊断方法评估评定者间信度及紧张症的患病率,这四种诊断方法分别为:布什-弗朗西斯紧张症评定量表(BFCRS)的筛查量表及完整量表、布劳尼希紧张症评定量表(CRS)、国际疾病分类第10版(ICD 10)和精神疾病诊断与统计手册第5版(DSM5)。
为评估评定者间信度,不同评定者依据四种量表给出的定义对患者进行评估:BFCRS筛查量表及总量表、CRS、ICD10和DSM5。使用基彭多夫α系数计算评定者间信度。采用斯皮尔曼相关性评估不同系统之间的一致性。在一家三级护理医院精神科病房连续收治的成年患者临床样本中,使用这四种定义研究紧张症的患病率。
发现评定者间信度对于BFCRS总量表良好(α=0.779),对于DSM5和BFCRS筛查量表中等(分别为α=0.575和α=0.514),对于CRS和ICD10较低(分别为α=0.111和α=0.018)。紧张症的BFCRS总量表定义与DSM5定义一致性最高(r=0.892,p<0.001)。在连续入院患者的患病率样本中,BFCRS筛查量表和ICD 10定义的患病率最高(10.3%,置信区间[CI] 3.9%至16.
