heal.abstractThis study examined the admission rates of patients with borderline personality disorder in a psychiatric unit within a General Hospital. The medical records of patients with DSM-IV borderline personality disorder who were admitted to the unit during the years 2004 and 2005 were retrospectively reviewed. The number of admissions of patients with borderline personality disorder was 78, involving 48 patients. The mean of admissions were 1.63 per patient. The comparison to the rest of the patient population (922 patients with a total of 1086 admissions) demonstrated that patients with borderline personality disorder were admitted more frequently than patients with major psychiatric disorders. The difference was statistically significant (P=0.042). The main reasons for admission were suicide attempts or threats and lack of out-patient facilities. The introduction of out-patient psychiatric facilities may contribute to the reduction of the admissions and to the better management of the disorder.en
