EV0708 E-PosterPublic Health and EpidemiologyRetrospective comparative study # Patterns of psychiatric crisis admissions during war: A real-world study from Ukraine PATTERNS OF PSYCHIATRIC CRISIS ADMISSIONS DURING WAR: A REAL-WORLD STUDY FROM UKRAINE Presenter: Volodymyr Kosovskyi Country: Ukraine During the war, admissions for trauma-related disorders increased by 87.6%, while length of stay decreased by 21.0%, indicating that war changed not only the number but also the nature of psychiatric crises. The study aimed to determine how war reshapes psychiatric crisis admissions, clinical profiles, and service burden, and to quantify its impact on hospital performance and patient outcomes. A retrospective comparative study was conducted at a regional psychiatric hospital, examining 426 crisis admissions across two six-month periods, one before and one during the war. During the war, trauma-related disorders increased by 87.6% (from 18.6% to 34.9%). Anxiety and depression crises increased by 42.3%, emergency admissions by 31.5%, and 30-day readmissions by 30.7% (from 17.9% to 23.4%). Despite rising demand, length of stay (LOS) decreased by 21.0% (from 16.2 days to 12.8 days), which was interpreted as an indicator of pressure on the system. The authors conclude that war fundamentally reshapes psychiatric crisis care, increasing demand, clinical complexity, and readmission risk while shortening hospital stays. From both clinical and service delivery perspectives, the study highlights the urgent need for adaptive and resilient mental health systems capable of responding to large-scale external stressors.
