[Attempt at categorizing the hospitalizations of schizophrenics and evaluation of the effectiveness of measures to prevent them].
The case reports of 150 schizophrenic adults over a period of ten years were analyzed. The study was based on a series of clinical-biological, "microsocial" and "psychosocial" parameters and covered 742 hospital admissions and the same number of interhospitalization periods (IHP). Such factors as "syndrome", "alcoholization", "system of interpersonal (intrafamilial) relations" were found to have the greatest impact on the behavioural pattern leading to hospitalization. According to the presence or absence of changes in the magnitude of these factors by the moment of hospitalization in respect to the previous IHP, five "types" of hospital admissions were outlined. The authors analyze the efficacy of the current and recommend additional measures of hospitalization prevention, taking into consideration the major desadaptation factors.
