Mental-physical multimorbidity is highly prevalent and challenges the conventional thinking of the single disease paradigm in healthcare systems. Mental and physical health are closely related in a bidirectional manner. Persons with mental-physical multimorbidity experience a heavy symptom and treatment burden in addition to a lower quality of life and an impaired medical prognosis. Healthcare is complicated by symptom overlap, poor communication and uncoordinated care. New cross-sectional and patient-centred approaches are necessary to counter the adversities of mental-physical multimorbidity.
精神-身体共病极为普遍，对医疗保健系统中单一疾病模式的传统思维构成挑战。精神健康与身体健康以双向方式密切相关。患有精神-身体共病的人除了生活质量较低和医疗预后受损外，还承受着沉重的症状负担和治疗负担。症状重叠、沟通不畅和护理不协调使医疗保健变得复杂。需要新的横断面和以患者为中心的方法来应对精神-身体共病带来的不利影响。
