[Psychosomatic rehabilitation].
Containing 14,000 beds on wards, the psychosomatic rehabilitation in hospitals has a significant part in the treatment of psychosomatic and somato-psychological diseases where psycho-social parameters play an etiological role. This work may be aggravated by the fact that these diseases are often recognized too late and that the patients are admitted to specialized hospitals in a state of chronic illness. Nevertheless, these hospitals are working with great success especially regarding the reduction of costs in the period after discharge, reduction of the time being incapable to work, in patient days, medication, and medical attendance. Beside these parameters of cost reduction, the success in treatment also contains the improvement of subjective parameters such as satisfaction of living, relationships, and every day life. Psychodiagnostic hints are given for the on time diagnosis of the mentioned disturbances allow an early and adequate treatment.
