Area of Science:

  • Psychiatry
  • General Practice
  • Mental Health

Background:

  • Psychological crises are common patient presentations in primary care.
  • General Practitioners (GPs) play a crucial role in initial patient management.
  • Effective crisis intervention requires adequate training and resources.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the frequency of psychological crisis encounters by GPs.
  • To identify common triggers for psychological crises in patients.
  • To understand the management strategies employed by GPs and their satisfaction levels.

Main Methods:

  • A questionnaire-based study was conducted.
  • 47 GPs attending a drug de-addiction orientation program participated.
  • Data on crisis encounters, triggers, and management techniques were collected.

Main Results:

  • Common crisis triggers included exam failure (22.9%), relationship breakups (16.8%), and bereavement (14.9%).
  • GPs most frequently used reassurance, tranquilizers, and psychiatric referrals.
  • A significant majority of GPs (68.1%) were unsatisfied with their treatment, and 78.9% desired more psychiatric training.

Conclusions:

  • GPs face frequent psychological crises with diverse triggers.
  • Current management strategies are perceived as inadequate by many GPs.
  • Enhanced psychiatric training for GPs is essential to improve patient care and outcomes.
