Abstract
Abstract
Objectives: The aim of the study is to propose the diagnostic classification and to reveal clinical psychological characteristics of depression that can be seen in digestive department. Method: After verification of depression by Hamilton Depression Rating Scale to 120 patients with digestive disease, we assessed and classified depression by etiology, psychological and somatic symptoms considering biological factors (gender, age etc.). Results: we classified depression in general clinical setting into psychosomatic depression (47.5%), somatogenic depression (34.2%), neurotic depression (11.7%) and masked depression (6.6%). Conclusion: It is appropriate for depression of digestive department to classify four types as psychosomatic depression, somatogenic depression, neurotic depression and masked depression. It is useful for the treatment and prevention of depression of digestive department. It needs more study whether this classification can be used to other internal departments.
