[Quality of life and satisfaction with medical care in patients with mental disorders of the schizophrenic spectrum].

This review aims at studying the development and application of the provisions of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health in the practice of domestic psychiatry. Publications on the quality of life and satisfaction with medical care for disabled people with schizophrenia spectrum disorders are reviewed. The review shows that with a decrease in the number of patients with mental disorders in the Russian Federation, the number of people with disabilities due schizophrenia spectrum disorders is growing. The study of the aspect of the quality of life of patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders reveals a slow development of this scientific area, especially due to the lack of standardized and validated methods. The aspect of satisfaction with medical care for people with schizophrenia spectrum disorders is also insufficiently studied, and, being directly related to the quality of life of patients, similarly lacks specialized assessment methods. It is also necessary to assess the influence of these factors on the formation of medical and social significance of the problem of disability of the population.
