Hospitalized patients show depressive symptoms, with higher prevalence in experimental groups. Early detection of these symptoms is crucial for managing psychological health in both hospital and community settings.

Area of Science:

  • Psychiatry and Psychology
  • Clinical Medicine
  • Public Health

Context:

  • Hospitalized patients are at risk for psychological distress.
  • Assessing mental health in general hospital settings is essential.
  • Anxious-depressive symptoms can indicate underlying psychological pathology.

Purpose:

  • To investigate the prevalence of depressive disorders in general hospital patients.
  • To identify individuals at risk for developing anxious-depressive symptoms.
  • To inform prevention and early intervention strategies for psychological health.

Summary:

  • A study involving 140 patients utilized the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12) and Personal Health Questionnaire (PHQ).
  • While GHQ-12 indicated minimal non-psychotic disorders (insomnia, stress in females), PHQ revealed depressive symptoms across all groups.
