ABSTRACT
Objective To study the, influencing factors of suicide-committing risks among hospitalized depressive patients. Methods Based on qualitative diagnoses, 102 patients were divided into non-suicide and suicide group.The two groups were compared in terms of general information, score by the Beck hopelessness scale (BHS) and the suicide subscale of the Chinese version of mini-international neuropsychiatric interview (MINI). Logistic regression was applied to analyze the related factors of suicide-committing risk in depressive patients. Results Among the 102 patients, 70 cases had tendency to commit suicide, accounting 68.6% , and 32 did not, accounting for 31.4%. Multivariate logistic regression suggested that the score of the suicide subscale of MINI could effectively predict the suicide tendency (P＜0.001). Conclusions The suicide-committing risk is high in the depressive patients. The MINI suicide risk is the influencing factor of suicide-committing risk and can be used to predict suicide tendency in hospitalized depression patients. More attention should be paid to patients at high risk and relevant nursing countermeasures should be taken for effective intervention.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the clinical characteristics of vagrant psychiatric patients with different gender and summarize nursing measures. Methods Toally 1165 vagrant psychiatric patients who all were inpatient in Shenzhen Corning Hospital between July 2014 to July 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. Seperately we analyzed incidence of nosocomial infection, aggressive behaviour, trouble-making level, restraint and protection, and activity daily living. Results There was 735 male (63.1%) and 430 (36.9%) female in 1165 vagrant psychiatric patients. Comparing with female patients, We found male patients had higher rate of nosocomial infection , aggressivity and accident level , who were susceptible to be restrained and protected ( P < 0 . 001 ) and needed more care (P<0.05). Conclusion We should specially take precautionary measures when nursing vagrant psychiatric patients with different gender.
