This study explored how patients with schizophrenia were provided with social support and treatment compliance during the pandemic.
A total of 396 patients with schizophrenia and their relatives were interviewed by telephone calls.
Multiple antipsychotic use and depot antipsychotics were not superior in preventing relapse. A total of 70.2% of the patients wanted to meet with their psychiatrist online but only 7.1% of them were reached online. A total of 59% of patients were able to take their medication thanks to the extension of their drug prescriptions.
Active inclusion of telepsychiatry applications in clinical practice is necessary for patients with schizophrenia. Government policies developed for treatment compliance seem important.
本研究探讨了在疫情期间，精神分裂症患者如何获得社会支持和治疗依从性。
通过电话访谈的方式，共对 396 名精神分裂症患者及其家属进行了采访。
多种抗精神病药物联合使用和长效抗精神病药物并不能更好地预防复发。共有 70.2%的患者希望与精神科医生进行在线会诊，但只有 7.1%的患者能够进行在线会诊。由于延长了药物处方，共有 59%的患者能够服药。
为精神分裂症患者积极纳入远程精神病学应用于临床实践是必要的。为提高治疗依从性而制定的政府政策似乎很重要。
