The purpose of this study is to identify treaters whom emergency physicians perceive to offer effective treatment of alcoholism. A random sample of 2,500 emergency physicians received a questionnaire comparing attitudes toward Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and professional alcoholism treaters. Physician agreement on the efficacy of alcoholism treaters was greatest for AA (87%), moderate for mental health professionals (including psychiatrists and psychologists, 55%) and least for physicians and surgeons (excluding psychiatrists, 23%; chi-square = 1,024, p = .000000005, df = 2). Physician education about other alcoholism treaters may be necessary if all types of treatment are to be considered for the emergency room patient.
本研究的目的是确定急诊医生认为能有效治疗酒精中毒的治疗者。随机抽取2500名急诊医生,发放一份问卷,比较他们对戒酒互助会(AA)和专业酒精中毒治疗者的态度。医生们对酒精中毒治疗者疗效的认同度,对戒酒互助会最高(87%),对心理健康专业人员(包括精神科医生和心理学家,55%)适中,对内科医生和外科医生(不包括精神科医生,23%)最低;卡方检验=1024,p = 0.000000005,自由度=2。如果要为急诊室患者考虑所有类型的治疗,可能有必要对医生进行关于其他酒精中毒治疗者的培训。
