Abstract

Objectives: This study identified profiles of outpatient physician follow-up care and other practice features, mostly after detection of incident mental disorders (MD), and associated these profiles with patient characteristics and subsequent adverse outcomes.

Methods: A cohort of 170,957 patients age 12 + with a new or recurrent MD detected in 2019-20 was investigated based on data from the Quebec Integrated Chronic Disease Surveillance System. Latent class analysis was performed to identify follow-up care profiles, mostly within one year of MD detection. Bivariate analyses tested associations between profiles and patient characteristics; logistic regressions examined relationships between profiles and adverse outcomes after one year.

Results: Five profiles were identified: Profiles 2 and 5 (64%) offered low mental health (MH) outpatient follow-up care, while the others dispensed higher MH follow-up care. Profiles differed in patient characteristics and related outcomes. Labelled "Follow-up care by usual psychiatrist", Profile 1 (1% of sample) included younger patients with the most health and social issues. Profile 2 (50%), "Low MH follow-up care but high prior consultations for physical reasons", mostly integrated older patients with chronic physical illnesses. Profile 3 (11%), "Follow-up care by general practitioners (GP) and psychiatrists", referred to physicians other than the usual ones (e.g., walk-in practice) and encompassed patients with severe MD conditions. Profile 4 (23%), "High follow-up care by usual GP and prior consultations for physical reasons", showed the typical characteristics of patients treated in primary care (more common MD, women, less materially and socially deprived). Profile 5 (15%), "Low MH follow-up care and prior consultations for physical reasons", integrated more younger men, materially deprived patients, and with substance-related disorders (SRD) or co-occurring MD-SRD. More Profile 1 and 3 patients lived in university regions - those of Profile 4 were the least numerous in such regions. More Profile 5 patients lived in metropolitan and rural areas. Risk of death was higher in Profiles 5, 2, 3, and risk of frequent ED use and hospitalization higher in Profiles 1, 3, and 5 - patients with severe health and social issues.

Conclusion: The study confirmed the need to improve prompt, adequate and continuous follow-up care for patients with incident MD.

受精神障碍事件影响的患者的医生随访护理、相关因素和结果概况。
目的:本研究确定了门诊医生随访护理的概况及其他实践特征,并将这些概况与患者特征及后续不良后果联系起来:本研究确定了门诊医生随访护理和其他实践特征的概况,主要是在发现偶发精神障碍(MD)之后,并将这些概况与患者特征和随后的不良后果联系起来:根据魁北克慢性病综合监测系统(Quebec Integrated Chronic Disease Surveillance System)提供的数据,对 170,957 名年龄在 12 岁以上、在 2019-20 年期间新发或复发过精神障碍的患者进行了调查。进行了潜类分析,以确定随访护理概况,主要是发现 MD 后一年内的情况。双变量分析检验了概况与患者特征之间的关联;逻辑回归检验了概况与一年后不良后果之间的关系:结果:确定了五种概况:结果:确定了五种概况:概况 2 和概况 5(64%)提供的精神健康(MH)门诊随访服务较少,而其他概况提供的精神健康随访服务较多。这些方案在患者特征和相关结果方面存在差异。简介 1(占样本的 1%)被称为 "由普通精神科医生提供的随访护理",包括了健康和社会问题最多的年轻患者。特征 2(50%),"精神健康随访护理少,但因身体原因事先咨询多",主要包括患有慢性身体疾病的老年患者。特征 3(11%),"由全科医生和精神科医生提供随访护理",指的是普通医生以外的医生(如随诊医生),包括患有严重精神疾病的患者。特征 4(23%),"由通常的全科医生提供大量后续护理,并因身体原因事先就诊",显示了在初级保健中接受治疗的病人的典型特征(更常见的 MD、女性、物质和社会贫困程度较低)。特征 5(15%),"MH 随访护理少,因身体原因曾就诊",包括更多年轻男性、物质匮乏患者、药物相关疾病(SRD)或同时患有 MD-SRD 的患者。更多特征 1 和特征 3 患者居住在大学区,而特征 4 患者在大学区最少。更多的特征 5 患者居住在大都市和农村地区。特征5、2和3的死亡风险较高,特征1、3和5--有严重健康和社会问题的患者--频繁使用急诊室和住院的风险较高:研究证实,有必要改善对突发急性心肌梗死患者的及时、充分和持续的随访护理。
