    Abstract:
    A better discrimination of phenomenology and severeness of psychopathological disorders after open-heart surgery has been obtained: a) There is no equal distribution of degrees of severeness, a high correlation of severeness with duration of the disorders, a low correlation with age and no dependance of sex. b) Disorientation, clouding of consciousness and disorders of awareness arise earlier, delusions, hallucinations and paranoid ideas tentatively later after surgery. c) Three psychopathological syndromes have been identified. They appear in different frequency, intensity and can be combined.
