Abstract

In this paper we have aimed to present the basics of comorbidity and relationship of panic disorder with chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD). It is, almost, well known fact that panic disorder is common comorbid condition in various somatic diseases, including pulmonary diseases. The importance of this comorbidity is related on impact on the functioning, the questions of primary diagnosis, etiological relationship, therapeutic implications etc. The prevalence of panic disorder is 3 times higher in patients with COPD and vice versa. The etiological considerations of panic disorder include, among the others, respiratory hypothesis and hyperventilation as the possible cause factors. The problem is, also, that symptoms of panic and COPD overlap, which could complicate diagnostic process. Therefore, the duty of somatic doctors is to recognize the symptoms of panic disorder in their patients, to reduce their anxiety and to refer them to psychiatric treatment if it is indicated.
多学科方法检查和治疗惊恐障碍和呼吸困难
在本文中,我们旨在介绍惊恐障碍与慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)共病的基础和关系。这是,几乎,众所周知的事实,恐慌症是常见的合并症在各种躯体疾病,包括肺部疾病。这种合并症的重要性与对功能的影响、初步诊断问题、病因关系、治疗意义等有关。COPD患者的惊恐障碍患病率是COPD患者的3倍,反之亦然。恐慌症的病因学考虑包括,除其他外,呼吸假说和过度换气是可能的病因。问题还在于,恐慌和慢性阻塞性肺病的症状重叠,这可能会使诊断过程复杂化。因此,躯体医生的职责是识别病人的恐慌症症状,减轻他们的焦虑,并在需要时将他们转介到精神科治疗。
