Abstract

This article reviews some of the recent data concerning Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry in a general hospital. As the organic medical conditions have a major impact on the one’s quality of life and self-awareness as an ill-person, very often a psychiatric disorder appears as co-morbidity. It is the responsibility of the psychiatrist to recognize and to treat these psychiatric conditions, and also to develop good work-relationships with the patients and the clinical team.
