The clinician who is faced with the task of diagnosing alcoholism in the elderly should be aware of the limitations of the diagnostic criteria for this population and should regard these criteria merely as areas from which to begin a much more detailed inquiry into the role of alcohol in any problems the patient may report.
面对诊断老年人酒精中毒这一任务的临床医生,应意识到针对该人群的诊断标准存在局限性,并且应仅将这些标准视为一个起点,从此开始更详细地探究酒精在患者可能报告的任何问题中所起的作用。
