Abstract:
A study of 47 firemen exposed to a complex of toxic substances while putting out fire and 46 subjects with chronic mercury intoxications was carried out 5-10 years after the exposure to toxic substances. Along with clinical psychiatric examination, neuropsychological testing was conducted. Non-specificity of mental disorders, polymorphism and progressive development were found. Psychoorganic syndrome with secondary neurotic disturbances proved to be a core feature of mental disorders. It is emphasized that neuropsychological examination or usage of neuropsychological methods during a psychiatric examination are important for practical diagnosis of exogenous organic mental disorders, especially for outpatient examination of corresponding occupational groups.
