Restrictive measures are widely used in psychiatric hospitals. But they are ill reputed. Little is known about them. This study is about the administration of isolation of mentally ill patients in a psychiatric hospital. 274 isolations of 100 patients within 11 months are recorded. Isolations concern 5% of the treated patients. That means two isolations on 1000 days of hospitalization. Mostly concerned are patients with schizophrenia or manic episodes. The most frequent reasons given were protection or irritation, danger for the patient or others but also molestation or provocation.
限制措施在精神病院中被广泛使用。但它们名声不佳。人们对其了解甚少。本研究是关于一家精神病院中对精神病患者实施隔离的情况。记录了11个月内100名患者的274次隔离情况。隔离涉及5%的接受治疗的患者。这意味着每1000个住院日中有两次隔离。受影响最大的是患有精神分裂症或躁狂发作的患者。给出的最常见原因是保护或激怒、对患者或他人构成危险,还有骚扰或挑衅。
