title: [Analysis of the structure of admissions and the course of hospitalization of drug addicts treated at the I Clinic for Mental Diseases, Medical Academy, in Gdańsk 1982-1988].
abstract: The structure of admissions and the course of hospitalization were evaluated in the group of 78 (48 men, 30 women) with diagnosis of psychoactive substance dependence hospitalized in the Ist Clinic of Psychiatry in Gdańsk during the period of 1982-88. The mean duration of hospitalization lasted 24 days. The most numerous (59%) group of opioid dependent patients was characterized by the shortest time of hospitalization. The longest duration of the abstinence symptoms was observed in the group of multiple-substance+ dependent patients. 62% of them were taking the drugs during hospitalization. In the group of euphoria + there was a positive correlation between the period of abstinence symptoms and a duration of hospitalization. Half of the patients discontinued hospitalization before the end of therapy. The abstinence symptoms were treated with neuroleptics, clomethiazole and subcomatic insulin.
