Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the management and treatment of patients with psychosis in china in 2020 and compare with those in the past five years to provide a reference for making policy and service delivery.Methods:Descriptive analysis was used to analyze the system usage and registration, management, and treatment situation of the patients with psychosis, using the data obtained from 'National Information System for Psychosis′ in China, with date traced from 1st August 2011 to 31st December 2020.Results:By the end of 2020, the information system was adopted by 100% of districts/counties. 6 430 587 patients were registered, with a registered rate of 0.46% (6 430 587/1 396 537 459). In 2020, 6 116 599 patients were provided with follow-up services by primary healthcare staff, with a management rate of 95.12% (6 116 599/6 430 587). 5 724 019 patients were followed up regularly, with the regular management rate of 89.01% (5 724 019/6 430 587). Moreover, the medication-taking rate was 87.83% (5 648 162/6 430 587), and the regular medication- taking rate was 68.84% (4 426 498/6 430 587). 5 277 746 patients were stable, and the stable condition rate was 96.40% (5 277 746/5 474 881). Compared with 2019, 200 430 more patients were registered in 2020. The management rate, regular management rate, medication-taking rate, regular medication-taking rate, and stable condition rate were increased by 0.88%, 2.50%, 3.75%, 11.39%, and 1.15%, respectively. The regular medication-taking rate among patients registered in the western region was significantly lower than that in the eastern and central areas ( F=6.317, P=0.005). According to the diagnosis, the duration of the untreated period of patients registered in 2020 with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, delusional disorder, schizoaffective disorder, psychotic disorder with epilepsy, mental retardation with psychotic symptoms were 2.69, 3.28, 1.68, 1.92, 4.70, and 9.89 years respectively, which were shorter than patients registered in 2019. Conclusion:The number of registered patients was sustainably growing. The untreated periods of newly registered patients were considerably shorter. The services and treatment situations improved in 2020. Appropriate policies should be developed to address the weaknesses of local mental health services in the western region to improve treatment rates.
