The proportion of children with psychiatric disorders treated in primary care is not known in most developing countries.
In a two-stage epidemiological study, 990 children aged between 7 and 14 years were screened with the parents' version of the Rutter scale. Of these, a stratified sample of 227 was interviewed jointly with their mothers, using the children's version of the Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia (K-SADS).
We obtained a weighted prevalence of 19.6 +/- 2.5% for the presence of one or more DSM-III-R disorders. Depressive disorders were present in 6.0%, anxiety-related disorders in 4.7%, and conduct disorders in 6.1%.
Psychiatric disorders in children are common in primary care. Doctors working at this level of care need the skills to detect and treat them.
在大多数发展中国家,初级保健机构中接受治疗的患有精神疾病的儿童比例尚不清楚。
在一项两阶段的流行病学研究中,使用父母版的拉特量表对990名7至14岁的儿童进行了筛查。其中,从这些儿童中抽取了一个227人的分层样本,与他们的母亲一起使用儿童版的情感障碍和精神分裂症检查表(K-SADS)进行访谈。
我们得出一种或多种DSM-III-R障碍的加权患病率为19.6±2.5%。抑郁症的患病率为6.0%,焦虑相关障碍的患病率为4.7%,品行障碍的患病率为6.1%。
儿童精神疾病在初级保健中很常见。在此级别提供护理的医生需要具备检测和治疗这些疾病的技能。
