Conducta de «puerta giratoria» como compulsión. A propósito de un caso

Abstract

This case report discusses treatment strategies for individuals exhibiting “revolving door” behaviors in mental health, focusing on a male patient diagnosed with obsessive-compulsive disorder and personality disorder. Despite consistent treatment, the patient displayed irregular follow-up and frequent visits to the emergency department. Following the identification of compulsion as the underlying issue, a psychoeducational intervention was introduced, leading to notable enhancements in the patient's condition by decreasing emergency department visits and enhancing participation in appointments with the Mental Health Team. This case underscores the significance of psychoeducational interventions in managing patients demonstrating “revolving door” behaviors in mental health settings.
