The seclusion room is an integral component of hospital psychiatry. This study prospectively surveyed 50 patients shortly after each was released from an isolation room in a voluntary general hospital psychiatric unit. Fifty-eight percent of the sample were diagnosed with mood disorders. Previous studies found generally negative attitudes toward seclusion. These data revealed that patients often found seclusion to be restful and therapeutically helpful. The clinical implications of these data are discussed.
隔离室是医院精神病科不可或缺的组成部分。本研究对一家综合性自愿医院精神科病房隔离室的50名患者在出院后不久进行了前瞻性调查。样本中有58%被诊断为情绪障碍。此前的研究发现,人们对隔离普遍持消极态度。这些数据显示,患者常常觉得隔离能让人放松,且对治疗有帮助。本文讨论了这些数据的临床意义。
