Thematik

Physical, emotional, and social factors, in verying proportions, play a role in every illness. The doctor’s task is to recognize not only the organic components but also the psychosocial processes involved in the disease and to take these into account. Only in the framework of a psychosocial anamnesis, psychosocial stressors can be identified by the doctor.
Psychosomatic medicine examines the definition, constructs, and dilemmas that confront professionals working at the interface of medicine and psychiatry, psychosomatic medicine, and consultation-liaison psychiatry. Psychosomatic medicine can be described as well as the subspecialty of psychiatry that focuses on medical and psychiatric comorbidity.
The course is intended to define key problems of psychosomatic medicine and provides methods of diagnosis and treatment.
One of the interesting aspects of the course is that it also consistently addresses the cultural aspects of psychosomatic disorders.
