Approaching individuals in the emergency situation presenting with medical illness and depression requires an understanding of psychologic, biologic, social, and existential factors that converge to create alterations in mood, thought, and behavior. Clinicians must understand how these same factors may be used in managing patient response to treatment of both the depression associated with an illness and the physical illness itself. Whenever a physical illness is present, it is imperative to ascertain the degree to which physical illness and concomitant treatment may be responsible for the psychiatric symptoms.
在紧急情况下接触患有躯体疾病和抑郁症的个体，需要理解心理、生物、社会和存在因素，这些因素相互作用会导致情绪、思维和行为的改变。临床医生必须明白，这些相同的因素如何用于管理患者对与疾病相关的抑郁症以及躯体疾病本身治疗的反应。只要存在躯体疾病，就必须确定躯体疾病及其伴随治疗对精神症状的影响程度。
