Topic

Recognition of psychiatric disorders is often difficult in general medical care. A common problem is that psychiatric symptoms are difficult to identify. Moreover, psychiatric symptoms can also mimic somatic disorders in many cases. The aim of the course is to give a pragmatic knowledge applicable to general medical practice for the rapid recognition and adequate treatment of psychiatric disorders.
