Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives ： The purpose of this study was to develop a standard case record form (CRF) and to identify the specific biopsychosocial factors influencing a clinical course of patients with alcohol use disorder in Korea.
Methods ： The CRF was developed with reference to the six-domain assessment of the American Society of Addiction Medicine, taking account of the need for a multifaceted evaluation of alcohol use disorders. We divided Korea into six regions, and the subjects who registered in the first year will be on surveillance for the next three years.
Results ：We present epidemiological and clinical data from the CRF completed from March to June 2016. In the CRF registration survey, the total number of eligible patients was 247 in the Medical centers, and 193 in community centers for mental health and addiction.
Conclusion : The CRF developed for this surveillance can assess a six-domain model, with information taken from patient’s drinking history to social support and quality of life. To my knowledge, this is the first nationwide survey of AUD patients in Korea as conducted by a naturalistic and prospective framework. These results could be an important basic data to determine the appropriate service and treatment level for AUD patients.
