Empfehlungen für Diagnostik und Therapie der Depression im Alter: Therapy Recommendations for Diagnosis and Treatment of Depression in Old Age
Abstract
Zusammenfassung. Diese Empfehlungen sollen dazu dienen, Fachpersonen das Wissen über die aktuelle Evidenz von Diagnostik und Therapie der Depression im Alter zur Verfügung zu stellen und damit zur frühzeitigen Erkennung und evidenzbasierten Behandlung beizutragen. Da für einige Behandlungsansätze nur rudimentär kontrollierte Studien vorliegen, wird auch das klinische Expertenwissen in die Beurteilung einbezogen. Im diagnostischen Vorgehen wird die besondere Symptomatik der Depression im Alter beleuchtet, auf die Suizidalität eingegangen und werden die häufig vorkommenden somatischen Komorbiditäten hervorgehoben. Auch Hypothesen zur Pathogenese, wie Neuroendokrinologie, Neurodegeneration und vaskuläre Faktoren, werden erläutert. In der Behandlung gilt heute ein integrierter biopsychosozialer Ansatz mit gezielten psychosozialen Interventionen, spezifischer Psychotherapie und einer antidepressiven Pharmakotherapie bei schweren Depressionen als sinnvoll. Daneben kommen auch chronobiologische oder Neurostimulationsverfahren zum Einsatz.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
