    Author: Heuft G, Senf W.
    Journal: Z Gerontol; 1992; 25(6):380-5. PubMed ID: 1481564.
    Abstract:
    Acute neurotic and functional symptoms in the elderly are undervalued relative to the frequency. The authors demonstrate the indication criteria and an inpatient focal therapeutic treatment conception for elderly patients. The 11 patients from 50 to 68 years, treated in this setting in 1991, are characterized by sociodemographic aspects, symptoms and length of treatment. At the end of the treatment period (on an average of 8 weeks) seven patients are well recovered with regard to their symptoms, one patient is somewhat improved, and two patients are not recovered. According to a short casuistic some fundamental reflections on psychoanalytic focal therapy in the elderly are discussed.
