They show that inpatient treatments led to a significant decrease in patients&#8217; average symptom burden. The proportion of cases with at least one measure restricting freedom decreased compared with the previous year.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<!--more-->\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The annual quality measurements survey the symptom burden of patients as well as the frequency of measures restricting freedom in inpatient psychiatry. As part of the measurement of symptom burden, patients as well as treating hospital staff assessed how physical and psychological complaints and other symptoms developed between admission and discharge. In adult psychiatry, the average symptom burden decreased significantly during the hospital stay. From the patients&#8217; perspective, it decreased at a similar rate as in the previous year; from the treatment providers&#8217; perspective, the decrease was slightly greater than in 2021. Admission scores remained stable from both the patient and practitioner perspectives.<\/p>\n\n<h3 id=\"symptom-burden-also-reduced-in-children\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Symptom burden also reduced in children<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In child and adolescent psychiatry, inpatient treatments also clearly reduced the average symptom burden. In the self-assessment of the children and adolescents and in the external assessment by the clinic staff, the symptom burden at clinic admission was at the previous year&#8217;s level. The difference between admission and discharge was assessed similarly by the treatment providers as in 2021; in the patients&#8217; self-assessment, the difference was smaller.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/abb1_NP5_s43.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1433\" height=\"2046\" src=\"https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/abb1_NP5_s43.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-367988\" style=\"width:500px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/abb1_NP5_s43.png 1433w, https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/abb1_NP5_s43-800x1142.png 800w, https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/abb1_NP5_s43-1160x1656.png 1160w, https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/abb1_NP5_s43-120x171.png 120w, https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/abb1_NP5_s43-90x128.png 90w, https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/abb1_NP5_s43-320x457.png 320w, https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/abb1_NP5_s43-560x800.png 560w, https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/abb1_NP5_s43-240x343.png 240w, https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/abb1_NP5_s43-180x257.png 180w, https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/abb1_NP5_s43-640x914.png 640w, https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/abb1_NP5_s43-1120x1599.png 1120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1433px) 100vw, 1433px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h3 id=\"fewer-measures-restricting-freedom\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fewer measures restricting freedom<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In adult psychiatry, the proportion of cases with at least one measure restricting freedom across all hospital types (excluding forensic psychiatry) was 8.8%. Compared with 2021, this represents an average decrease of 0.8 percentage points. In child and adolescent psychiatry, the trend of a declining number of cases continued.
