Psychiatric consultation to a general hospital medical evaluation service was reviewed and compared with consultation patterns for general hospital inpatients and psychiatric emergency service patients. Results of a questionnaire survey indicated nearly 1 in 5 patients admitted to this acute medical service (24-hour maximum stay) required psychiatric consultation. A study of those patients seen by psychiatric consultants is reported. The prevalence of depressive illness as well as the psychiatric hospitalization referral rate was substantially greater than in general hospital inpatient or psychiatric emergency service evaluations. The implications of this relatively new area of consultation-liaison for hospital staffing and medical education are discussed.
对一家综合医院医疗评估服务中的精神科会诊进行了回顾，并与综合医院住院患者和精神科急诊患者的会诊模式进行了比较。问卷调查结果表明，在这家急性医疗服务机构（最长住院24小时）收治的患者中，近五分之一需要精神科会诊。本文报告了对精神科会诊医生所诊治患者的一项研究。抑郁症的患病率以及精神科住院转诊率显著高于综合医院住院患者评估或精神科急诊评估。讨论了这一相对较新的会诊-联络领域对医院人员配备和医学教育的影响。
