Abstract:
Backgrounds & Purpose: Nowadays the narcotics are one of the major
problems facing human societies. It has global expansion. Based on clinical
observation, in most cases, certain mental, emotional and behavioral
disorders are related to addiction. Because of this thread we decided
to check the prevalence of addiction to drugs in patients admitted to the
psychiatric sector of Zare hospital in sari city during March 20, 2012 to
March 20, 2013.
Materials & Methods: This is a retrospective research and data were
collected from medical files in Zare hospital. The data were collected using
a two section questionnaires the first part consisted of demographic
questions, and the second section was based on the results of tests. Data
were analyzed with descriptive statistics, Chi 2 test by using SPSS V.18.0.
(P<0.05) were considered statistically significant.
Results: 1380 patients including 1030 Male (75%) and 350 Female (25%)
with 35 years age average. Analysis showed Methamphetamine was positive
in 73 cases (5.9%), Methadone 159 (11.2%), Morphine 242 (18.7%) that
was the most frequent, Marijuana was positive in 40 (3.1%) cases and then
Cocaine test was negative in all cases. In Morphine test the most positive
cases were among 40 to 50 years old, however in other tests were 20 to
40 years. Between Gender and results of tests data were statistically
significant (P<0.05). There were no significant relations between results
and age (P>0.05) but in Morphine was significant (P=0.048).
Conclusion: Since in Iran young people significantly are vulnerable to
addiction and their disorders, also higher prevalence of mental disorders
in addicts compared to general and health peoples, this case should be
considered.
