    Depressive symptoms and mental health service utilization in a community sample (1992)
    Springer
    Social psychiatry and psychiatric epidemiology 27 (1992), S. 161-167 
    Details

    Notes: Summary This study examines the utilization of health visits for mental health purposes by community respondents with depressive symptoms. Data are drawn from first wave interviews of the Epidemiologic Catchment Area (ECA) project at the Baltimore, Durham, and Los Angeles sites. The results indicate that persons with depressive symptoms, even in the absence of a recent DIS/DSM-III disorder, are at increased risk for making mental health related visits. The risk of visiting a general medical provider or mental health specialist for mental health treatment tends to increase as the number of depressive symptoms increase. Sociodemographic factors including age, racial background, and employment status also influence the risk of making a mental health related visit.

    Center differences and cross-national invariance in help-seeking for panic disorder (1992)

    Notes: Summary Help-seeking behaviour for treatment of panic disorder was investigated in the sample of the Cross-National Collaborative Panic Study Second Phase. A total of 1168 patients were entered into this trial in 14 countries. Although there were significant center differences in prior treatment and utilization of health services there were also similarities. Treatment had been provided mainly by general practitioners. Drug treatment consisted mostly of prescription of classical tranquilizers and had a longer duration than treatment by psychotherapy. Patients with agoraphobic avoidance, past major depression and longer duration of illness used medical and psychiatric treatment facilities more intensely. Older and more severely disabled subjects were more frequently treated by medical health care providers and were more likely to receive psychotropic drugs. The results indicate that general practitioners carry an important load in the treatment of panic disorders but may need more information about recent developments in pharmacotherapy for this condition.

    Evaluating the diagnostic criteria for panic disorder: measures of social morbidity as criteria (1992)

    Notes: Summary Over 9% of the subjects in the NIMH Epidemiologic Catchment Area sample reported a history of at least one panic attack, yet only 1.5% of the sample met DSM-III criteria for panic disorder. In light of the revisions of these criteria for DSM-IV, two of those diagnostic criteria, frequency of panic attacks and number of symptoms during a panicattack, are examined in this paper. We evaluated the relationship between those criteria and each of three measures of social morbidity: psychiatric hospitalization, emergency room (ER) use for emotional problems, and suicide attempts. Although only symptom count was significantly associated with either ER use or suicide attempts, both diagnostic criteria were associated with psychiatric hospitalization. The threshold for symptom count was also considered and while three appeard to have slightly better sensitivity and specificity, the continued use of four symptoms seemed acceptable. The diagnostic and clinical implications of the findings are considered.

    The prevalence of hypochondriasis in medical outpatients (1990)
    Springer
    Social psychiatry and psychiatric epidemiology 25 (1990), S. 89-94 
    Details
    ISSN: 1433-9285
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary Forty-one DSM-III-R hypochondriacs were obtained by screening consecutive visitors to a general medical clinic and compared with 76 patients randomly chosen from the same setting. They completed a research battery consisting of a structured diagnostic interview (DIS) and self-report questionnaires to measure hypochondriacal symptoms and functional impairment. The criterion standard for diagnosing hypochondriasis was a structured interview of demonstrated reliability and validity. The six-month prevalence of DSM-III-R hypochondriasis was estimated to be between 4.2% and 6.3% of consecutive attenders who met the inclusion criterion of having visited the same physician before. This rate was somewhat lower than that found for generalized anxiety disorder and comparable to that of alcohol abuse. The hypochondriacal patients did not differ significantly from the comparison random sample in sociodemographic risk factors except that they were significantly more likely to be Black. Hypochondriacal symptomatology was similar in males and females; and in those over 65 and those under 65. Over a three-week interval, hypochondriacal symptoms remained stable, and hypochondriacal patients had significantly higher levels of long-term disability than did the comparison patients.

    Assessing impairment in patients with panic disorder: the Sheehan Disability Scale (1992)

    Notes: Summary The DSM-III-R incorporates both distress (symptoms) and disability (impairment) in the definition of a psychiatric disorder. In psychiatric research there is a wide array of instruments used to measure symptom severity, but a limited selection for the assessment of impairment. The psychometric properties of one such instrument, The Sheehan Disability Scale (Sheehan 1983), are evaluated in this paper. The data analyzed come from two studies of patients with panic disorder, the Cross National Collaborative Panic Study-Phase I and the Panic Depression Study. In this report both the alpha coefficients and factor analyses indicate that the reliability of the scale is acceptable. The factor structure of the items and the sensitivity to change of their composite demonstrate satisfactory construct validity. The criterion-related validity is substantiated by the significant relationship between symptomatology and impairment. These analyses were limited to patients with panic disorder. Further work is needed to evaluate the instrument in assessing patients with other disorders.
