[Analysis of a patient population of the neurologic-psychiatric admission department of a central prison hospital]. 1985

R M Schulte

This article represents an attempt to analyse the multivarious and problematic groups of neurological and psychiatric inpatients admitted to a central hospital for prisoners in Baden-Württemberg. This special ward for such patients is unique in its character in the entire Federal Republic of Germany. Patients are differentiated according to diagnosis, length of stay, duration of imprisonment, reason for referral, number of patients referred, and kind of treatment. The four most strongly represented groups of diagnosis consist of the patients with psychogenic reactions, drug addiction, endogenous psychoses and psychopathies. These differ from one another according to treatment regimen, reasons for referral, and mode of hospitalisation. Statistics are given reflecting the problems of non-German, mentally abnormal prisoners and of their suicidal or para-suicidal actions.
