dc.description.abstractObjective: This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of some variables, socio-demographic factors, patients' presentation of their own complaints and psychiatric examination signs, in prediction of depression and anxiety diagnosis in an outpatient setting. Also, patients' presentations of their own complaints were grouped. Relation of socio-demographic factors, diagnosis, treatment and psychiatric examination with these groups and variables that were effective in prediction of depression and anxiety diagnosis were studied. Method: This study was conducted on records of 405 patients admitting for the first time to our policlinics between January and March 2008. From these 309 patients' records aging over 16 was investigated. Policlinic records comprise socio-demographic data, patients' presentations of their own complaints in the interview, signs of patients in the examination and diagnosis according to DSM IV classification. Results:The socio-demographic and clinic features of 309 patients admitted on January-March 2008 and whose ages were between 17-75. Diagnostic and treatment features of patients were summarized in Table 2. There was not any association with sex and age, region, definite diagnosis, drug usage and disease severity (p=0.05). But association between sex and depression or anxiety disorder was statically significance, and women had higher diagnosis than men (p=0.009). Work and activity complaints for men (p=0.03) and somatic complaints for women (p=0.05) were higher. Conclusions: This study indicates that depression and anxiety disorders were the most common diseases in patients admitting to a psychiatry policlinic. Somatoform disorders followed these diseases. In the study, grouping patient complaints according to Hamilton Depression Scale items predicted depression and anxiety disorders and multi drug usage more than examination signs. When the first 5 drugs being prescribed to patients investigated, it Was seen that SSRI and Venlafaksin were the most common drugs.en_US
