OBJECTIVE To optimize psychiatric consultation service epidemiological information is needed. METHODS We compared data on gender, age and diagnoses of patients in the consultation service to psychiatric inpatients. RESULTS In psychiatric consultation service patients are older (56.6 vs. 44.9 years, p < 0.05) and males are older than females (58.8 vs. 54.4 years, p < 0.05). For male patients, the psychiatric consultation service is contacted more often in cases of organic disorders, for females in adjustment disorders (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The diagnostic spectrum in psychiatric consultation service is different for males and females with relevance for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.
