Condiciones meteorológicas y visitas a emergencias psiquiátricas en Messina Italia

Objetivo: El objetivo de este estudio fue examinar la asociación entre las enfermedades psiquiátricas y los factores climáticos y estacionales, en los pacientes registrados en la Unidad de Emergencia, en el Hospital de Messina (Italia). Método: 6565 pacientes psiquiátricos se registraron a la Unidad de Emergencia en Messina entre enero de 2005 y diciembre de 2010. Cada visita psiquiátrica en urgencias fue clasificada por fecha de aparición y diagnóstico de admisión de acuerdo con las categorías diagnósticas: ansiedad, trastornos del humor y psicosis. Datos meteorológicos locales se obtuvieron de la Institución Metereológica "Aereonautica Militare" estación en Messina, Sicilia. Además, para la recopilación de datos sobre el... Ver más

description Objetivo: El objetivo de este estudio fue examinar la asociación entre las enfermedades psiquiátricas y los factores climáticos y estacionales, en los pacientes registrados en la Unidad de Emergencia, en el Hospital de Messina (Italia). Método: 6565 pacientes psiquiátricos se registraron a la Unidad de Emergencia en Messina entre enero de 2005 y diciembre de 2010. Cada visita psiquiátrica en urgencias fue clasificada por fecha de aparición y diagnóstico de admisión de acuerdo con las categorías diagnósticas: ansiedad, trastornos del humor y psicosis. Datos meteorológicos locales se obtuvieron de la Institución Metereológica "Aereonautica Militare" estación en Messina, Sicilia. Además, para la recopilación de datos sobre el estado del cielo, temperatura, presión atmosférica con el valor normalizado a nivel del mar, la humedad relativa, la precipitación, la dirección del viento y la velocidad, la estación está conectada a una boya situada en el sector oriental del mar Tirreno. Resultados: En los trastornos de ansiedad se encontraron resultados relevantes en comparación con el invierno y la primavera (p = 0,007) y primavera y otoño (p = 0,001). En los trastornos afectivos se produjeron diferencias en relación con el invierno y el otoño (p = 0,002), primavera y otoño (p = 001), primavera y verano (p = 002). El trastorno psicótico presenta diferencias significativas entre verano y otoño (p = 0,001) y en primavera y otoño (p = 0,002). Conclusiones: Podemos observar una similitud de los trastornos afectivos; es decir, los trastornos de ansiedad y del estado de ánimo en comparación con la psicosis, los cuales tienen diferentes influencias y probablemente formas etiopatogénicas diferentes. En nuestra investigación, la distribución de los trastornos de ansiedad fue más alta que los trastornos depresivos en términos de la entrada de visitas a la sala de emergencia. Las principales diferencias se produjeron comparando la primavera y el otoño, las estaciones del año cuando todas las clases patológicas tienen diferencias significativas. De ello se deduce que el cambio climático más abrupto, típico de estas estaciones, en su conjunto provoca situaciones de emergencia psicopatológicas. El estudio es importante para la planificación de una asistencia más eficaz para los pacientes que necesitan ayuda psiquiátrica.
description_eng Objective: The aim of this study is to examine the association between psychiatric disease, climatic and seasonal factors in patients recorded to the Emergency Unit, in Messina Hospital (Italy). Method: A total of 6565 psychiatric patients were recorded to the Emergency Unit in Messina from January 2005 and December 2010. Each psychiatric visit in emergency, was categorized by date of appearance and admitting diagnosis according to diagnostic categories: Anxiety, Mood Disorders and Psychosis. Local weather data were obtained from the Metereological Instituted “Aereonautica Militare” station in Messina, Sicily, In addition, to gathering data on the state of the sky, temperature, atmosphericpressure with the normalized value at sea level, relative humidity, rainfall, wind direction and speed, the station is connected to a buoy located on the eastern sector of Tyrrhenian Sea. Results: In anxiety disorders we have found relevant results comparison between winter and spring (p=.007) and spring and fall (p=.001). In affective disorders the differences occur in relation to winter and fall (p=.002), spring and fall (p=001), spring and summer (p=002). The psychotic disorder presents significant differences between summer and fall (p=.001) and spring and fall (p=.002). Conclusions: We can observe a similarity of affective disorders, i.e. anxiety and mood disorders compared to psychosis, which have different influences and probably according to dissimilar etiopathogenetic ways. In our research, the distribution of anxiety disorders is higher than depressive disorders in terms of delivering emergency room visits. The major differences occur comparing spring and fall, the seasons when all pathological classes have significant differences. It follows that the most abrupt climate change, typical of these seasons, as a whole, cause psychopathological emergencies. The study is important for planning a more effective assistance for patients needing psychiatric support.

Objective: The aim of this study is to examine the association between psychiatric disease, climatic and seasonal factors in patients recorded to the Emergency Unit, in Messina Hospital (Italy). Method: A total of 6565 psychiatric patients were recorded to the Emergency Unit in Messina from January 2005 and December 2010. Each psychiatric visit in emergency, was categorized by date of appearance and admitting diagnosis according to diagnostic categories: Anxiety, Mood Disorders and Psychosis. Local weather data were obtained from the Metereological Instituted “Aereonautica Militare” station in Messina, Sicily, In addition, to gathering data on the state of the sky, temperature, atmosphericpressure with the normalized value at sea level, relative humidity, rainfall, wind direction and speed, the station is connected to a buoy located on the eastern sector of Tyrrhenian Sea. Results: In anxiety disorders we have found relevant results comparison between winter and spring (p=.007) and spring and fall (p=.001). In affective disorders the differences occur in relation to winter and fall (p=.002), spring and fall (p=001), spring and summer (p=002). The psychotic disorder presents significant differences between summer and fall (p=.001) and spring and fall (p=.002). Conclusions: We can observe a similarity of affective disorders, i.e. anxiety and mood disorders compared to psychosis, which have different influences and probably according to dissimilar etiopathogenetic ways. In our research, the distribution of anxiety disorders is higher than depressive disorders in terms of delivering emergency room visits. The major differences occur comparing spring and fall, the seasons when all pathological classes have significant differences. It follows that the most abrupt climate change, typical of these seasons, as a whole, cause psychopathological emergencies. The study is important for planning a more effective assistance for patients needing psychiatric support.
