Abstract
The relevance of this study is defined by the absence of clear differential and diagnostic criteria of endogenous asthenia in modern systematics and classifications of mental illnesses which significantly complicates appropriate qualification, diagnostic understanding, preliminary assessment and therapy of these conditions.
The purpose of the study: the research of psychopathological characteristics of asthenic disorders in patients with attack — like progressive schizophrenia in remission.
Material and methods: 63 male patients aged 23–58 with attack — like progressive schizophrenia in remission (at least 6 months), with asthenic disorders prevailing in clinical picture, were examined. During the examination, the following methods were used: clinico-psychopathological, psychometric (with the use of scales PANSS, SANS, CDSS, VAS-A, MFI-20), statistical.
Results: based on the detailed analysis of asthenic symptomatology, its clinical heterogeneity in asthenic symptoms was revealed. It allowed to allocate two types of endogenous asthenia: affective-asthenic type (n = 22; 34,9%) and negative-asthenic type (n = 41;65,1%), which included two subtypes: the 1st subtype — negative-asthenic classical (n = 35; 55,6%), the 2nd subtype — negative-asthenic with overvalued hypochondriac ideas (n = 6; 9,5%).
Conclusions: The allocation of several types of asthenic disorders in remission in the course of endogenous process is significant in respect of syndrome-based diagnostic assessment and could serve as a factor enabling to specify the disease prognosis.
