老年抑郁症非药物干预及治疗

Non-pharmacological interventions and treatment of late-life depression

抑郁症是老年人常见的精神疾病,与生活质量下降、残疾、自杀风险和死亡率有关。药物治疗老年抑郁症不良反应大且易产生耐药性,因此,非药物干预及治疗逐渐成为研究热点。本文就近年来国内外关于老年抑郁症非药物干预及治疗方面的研究进展进行论述,为进一步研究老年抑郁症的有效治疗方法提供理论依据。

Depression is a common mental illness in the elderly,which is associated with compromised quality of life,disability,suicide risk and mortality.Drug treatment of late-life depression has large adverse reactions and is prone to drug resistance.Therefore,non-pharmacological interventions have gradually become a research hotspot.This paper reviewed the research progress of non-pharmacological interventions of late-life depression at home and abroad in recent years,and provides a theoretical basis for further research on effective treatment of late-life depression.
