[Quality of life for schizophrenic patients--that is.... Results of a survey of psychiatrists].

Abstract:

:605 German psychiatrists were asked what they consider important ingredients of the quality of life of schizophrenic patients. Most frequently, quality of life was associated with social integration. Work, social contacts and acceptance on the part of their environment were considered particularly important in this respect. The second rank was occupied by the absence of symptoms of the disorder and a sufficient capacity and fitness for work, as well as social competence to meet the demands of their social environment, and to be capable of living independently. In addition, the limitation to a minimum of suffering from the side-effects of psychopharmacotherapy was held to be relevant for the patients' quality of life. Adequate psychiatric care was least frequently regarded as a prerequisite.
