[Efficacy of the treatment of alcoholics in the anonymous office of a narcologic outpatient clinic].
Combined clinico-therapeutic and follow-up study of 86 habitual drinkers, 168 patients with the first and 13 with the second stage of chronic alcoholism treated anonymously at a narcological outpatient centre has shown that a new organizational form of narcological service (a room of anonymous treatment), in contrast to other forms of narcological treatment appeals to younger individuals with a high educational and professional status and with a high degree of familial and social adaptation. The follow-up of patients after anonymous treatment showed its high efficiency: remission over 3 years was observed in 19.7% of cases, from 2 to 3 years in 38%, from 1 to 2 years in 29.9%, and up to 1 year in 12.4%. A high therapeutic efficacy and a prophylactic nature of anonymous treatment seem to validate the necessity of setting up rooms of anonymous treatment in the framework of a narcological outpatient centre, which may prove to be another effective component in the staged system of narcological service.
