[The effectiveness of psychiatric rehabilitation of in-patients with schizophrenia].
Abstract
OBJECTIVE\nTo determine clinical and social indicators in in-patients with schizophrenia depending on their participation in psychiatric rehabilitation.\n\n\nMATERIAL AND METHODS\nOne hundred in-patients were randomly assigned to receive either rehabilitation along with the standard pharmacological treatment or standard pharmacological treatment alone. Thirty-five patients from the main group and 39 patients from control group completed three-month participation in the study. The Life Skills Profile (LSP-16), HoNOS and PANSS were used at baseline and post-intervention assessment.\n\n\nRESULTS\nThere was a statistically significant decrease in scores of almost all LCP-16 subscales and PANSS in the rehabilitation group compared with the control group. No between-group differences in HoNOS scores were observed.\n\n\nCONCLUSIONS\nThe findings support implementation of psychiatric rehabilitation programs for in-patients with schizophrenia.
