    The psychiatric physical examination - Part II: findings in 75 unselected psychiatric patients.

    Abstract

    The psychiatric physical examination described in the previous paper was done on 75 new psychiatric inpatients. The examiners were one psychiatrist and two psychiatrist-internists. Results confirmed the high frequency of known and unsuspected medical illnesses previously reported in the literature. Additionally, the specific "psychiatric physical examination" confirmed the known psychiatric diagnoses in 76% of the patients and led to consideration of a second or other psychiatric diagnoses in 43% of the patients.
