ABSTRACT

Se realizó un estudio descriptivo desde Octubre a Diciembre de 2008 en la Emergencia del Hospital Vilardebó estableciéndose la prevalencia del consumo de sustancias psicoactivas en los pacientes que ingresaban por Trastornos Psicóticos.

Los pacientes con testeado positivo mostraron una tasa total de ingresos mayor que aquella del grupo de los no consumidores, y los ingresos en el último año fueron claramente mayores para el grupo que consume cocaína y sus derivados.
