Abstract
Objectives To analyse the differences between nurses with and without substance use disorders (SUDs) admitted to a specialised mental health programme.Design Retrospective, observational study.Setting Specialised mental health treatment programme for nurses in Catalonia, Spain.Participants 1091 nurses admitted to the programme from 2000 to 2021.Interventions None.Primary and secondary outcomes Sociodemographic, occupational and clinical variables were analysed. Diagnoses followed Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th edition, Text Revision criteria.Results Most nurses admitted to the programme were women (88%, n=960) and came voluntarily (92.1%, n=1005). The mean age at admission was 45 (SD=10.4) years. The most common diagnoses were adjustment disorders (36.6%, n=399), unipolar mood disorders (25.8%, n=282), anxiety disorders (16.4%, n=179) and SUDs (13.8%, n=151). Only 19.2% (n=209) of the sample were hospitalised during their first treatment episode. After multivariate analysis, suffering from a SUD was significantly associated with being a man (OR=4.12; 95% CI 2.49 to 6.82), coming after a directed referral (OR=4.55; 95% CI 2.5 to 7.69), being on sick leave at admission (OR=2.21; 95% CI 1.42 to 3.45) and needing hospitalisation at the beginning of their treatment (OR=12.5; 95% CI 8.3 to 20).Conclusions Nurses with SUDs have greater resistance to voluntarily asking for help from specialised mental health treatment programmes and have greater clinical severity compared with those without addictions. SUDs are also more frequent among men. More actions are needed to help prevent and promote earlier help-seeking behaviours among nurses with this type of mental disorder.

要点】:该研究分析了参加专门心理健康项目的有和无物质使用障碍(SUDs)的护士之间的差异,发现有SUDs的护士更不愿意自愿寻求专业帮助,临床症状更严重,且男性更易患病。

方法】:采用回顾性观察研究设计,对2000至2021年间在西班牙加泰罗尼亚地区专门针对护士的心理健康治疗项目中接受治疗的1091名护士进行研究。

实验】:研究分析了社会人口学、职业和临床变量,诊断依据为《精神疾病诊断与统计手册》第四版修订版。结果显示,在该项目中,大部分护士是女性(88%),自愿参加(92.1%)。最常见的诊断是调整障碍(36.6%)、单极情感障碍(25.8%)、焦虑障碍(16.4%)和物质使用障碍(13.8%)。仅有19.2%(209名)在首次治疗周期内住院。多变量分析显示,患有SUDs与男性(OR=4.12)、非自愿推荐(OR=4.55)、 admission时病假(OR=2.21)和治疗初期需要住院(OR=12.5)显著相关。
