[Protracted reactive states in the general hospital: the clinico-psychopathological aspects].
A study was made of earthquake-induced mental disorders which did not lead to the patients' admission to psychiatric hospitals. 40 patients were examined at the general somatic hospital 6-7 months after the earthquake. The signs of mental disorders of the neurotic and affective level were revealed in 70% of the patients with lingering reactive conditions. They manifested in asthenic, depressive hypochondriac and conversion syndromes. All the cases were characterized by asthenic disorders and somatized nature of the disorders.
