Results:
Three groups of subjects were scrutinized: individuals receiving disability pension due to mental disorders resulting from an accident or general ailments. The average age was 46. Groups I and III were dominated by women, group II – by men. The subjects in groups II and III had mostly vocational education and in group I – secondary education Majority of subjects applying for benefits from the Social Insurance Company suffered from mental disorders amongst the insured.
Conclusions:
Disability pension covered the period from 1 to 20 years. Most individuals were granted the pension for the period of 5–10 years. The professional activity of those insured lasted 10–20 years and 20–30 years. In 60% of subjects, lower than average level of intellectual abilities was diagnosed. Over 30% of the subjects displayed proven disorders of personality disintegration. Emotional disorders dominated amongst cases of personality disorders. Depression-based as well as fear and depression-based disorders were most frequently diagnosed. About 70% of the subjects received psychiatric treatment. Psychiatric treatment was administered least frequently to individuals after accidents. Organic post-traumatic origin of the mental disorders was diagnosed in about 50% of subjects, mostly those after accidents and suffering from general diseases.
