Profiling OCD Patients for Psychotherapy

The first 61 consecutive inpatients (32 females and 29 males with a mean age of 32.7 ± 12.05 years) treated in 2020 and 2021 on our ward specialized for OCD psychotherapy (https://www.uniklinik-freiburg.de/psych/stationen/station-6.html), who agreed to the offered diagnostic work-up, were included in the present study. Patients with the following admission codes according to the criteria of the ICD-10 [24 ] were analyzed: F42.0 (predominantly obsessional thoughts or ruminations), F42.1 (predominantly compulsive acts), and F42.2 (mixed obsessional thoughts and acts). All diagnoses were assigned based on patient history and clinical examination by experienced senior psychiatrists. Patients under 18, patients with obsessive-compulsive (anankastic) personality disorder (ICD-10: F60.5), and patients with mild cognitive impairment or dementia were excluded. Of the 61 included patients, five suffered from predominantly obsessional thoughts or ruminations (F42.0), six from predominantly compulsive acts (F42.1), and 50 from mixed obsessional thoughts and acts (F42.2).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
