Abstract
When psychiatric treatment is finished, a lot of patients should be discharged from the hospital.
The degrees of recovery among psychiatric patients appear various and complicated. For example, the one can be employed in former placement, the other happens to live only on unproductive life in community. It is important that not only one physician but many physicians investigate the cases of recovery for psychiatric patients.
We examined one hundred and two patients for one year from June, 1966 to June, 1966.
In June and December, relatively a number of patients were discharged from the hospial.
Of course, it is natural that discharged patients mainly consist of occupational ward and open ward.
As for discharged patients, 20 agers or 30 agers appear more than other ages.
As such a generation indicates human productive period, so patients and their families want to be discharged.
Diagnosis is as follows; schizophrenic 50, atypical psychosis 8, psychopath 8, psychogenic reaction 7, manic-depressive disease 7, alcoholism 5, neurosis 5, etc.
As for occupations, farmer 24, student 12, public employee 8, etc.
Regarding treatment, drug therapy 63, work therapy 32, electro-shock-therapy 4, intensive psychotherapy 3, etc.
