| description | Depressive disorder can be the result of a complex interaction of social, psychological and biological factors. The study aimed to identify the demographic and socioeconomic characteristics of patients with depressive disorder hospitalized in "Dr. Constantin Gorgos" Titan Psychiatric Hospital during 2015-2018. In order to identify the differences between the population subgroups in terms of demographic and professional characteristics, a group of 1,217 continuously hospitalized patients and 2,040 day hospitalized patients in the Psychiatric Hospital "Constantin Gorgos" Titan in 2014-2018 was studied. The study is descriptive and, in the study, secondary data from the hospital database were analyzed. The analyzed data were collected during the hospitalization of patients with recurrent depressive disorder. The study identified differences between the analyzed subpopulations, differences that were similar to those identified in the literature. Thus, it was found that more women than men accessed the psychiatric medical services, the biggest difference between the distributions being found in the age group 50-59 years. A small proportion of patients have completed higher education and most of them are retired before reaching the standard retirement age. Most of them come from urban areas. |
