The purpose of this review is both to evaluate the impact of the association of nosocomial infections, dental and somatic pathology in patients with depression, because the presence of comorbidities leads to an increase in health care costs, as well as to evaluate the importance of multidisciplinary care of these patients. Chronic depression correlated, independently, more frequently with the state of somatic health compared to episodic depression thus emphasizing the need for prompt treatment of depression. Nosocomial infections associated with depression are a constant concern in the medical field, despite significant advances in patient care. These infections, occurring within medical institutions, constitute a major problem in the health system, generating significant morbidity and mortality, and involving substantial socio-economic costs. There is a higher prevalence of cardiovascular diseases and strokes in patients suffering from recurrent depressive disorder. It is possible that anxiety through serotonergic dysfunction represents the physio-pathological link that establishes the depressionanxiety-somatic pathology connection. The physical health of patients with depression must also include prevention of oral pathology through oral hygiene advice, management of iatrogenic dry mouth and early dental visits. Osteo-articular diseases increase the risk of suicide, while cardiovascular diseases lead to an increase in the frequency of episodes and hospitalizations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
