Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 3-4 (October-December 2009) . - p.1006-1013 Titre : Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders using psychiatric hospitals in Ontario: Clinical profile and service needs Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Yona LUNSKY, Auteur ; Carolyn GRACEY, Auteur ; Elspeth BRADLEY, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p.1006-1013 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Psychiatric-services Intellectual-disability Hospitalization Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) represent a small, but challenging sub-group of patients within Ontario's mental health care system. However, few studies have documented the clinical characteristics of this population and examined how such individuals differ from other psychiatric patients, with or without intellectual disabilities (ID). Method A secondary analysis of data from the 2003 Comprehensive Assessment Projects from three psychiatric hospitals in Ontario was conducted to describe patients with ASD and ID and to determine how their profile compared to other hospital users. Results Twenty-three patients with ASD and ID were matched on gender and patient status (inpatient/outpatient) to individuals with and without ID. Individuals with ASD and ID were similar in terms of demographics to patients with and without ID. However, individuals with ASD and ID were younger, spent more days in hospital and were less likely to have a psychotic disorder diagnosis than both patients with and without ID. Inpatients with ASD and ID were recommended for a higher level of care than hospital service users without ID. Conclusions Clearly, this small sub-group of individuals within the hospital population has high clinical needs that are not always well met.

Approximately 16% of individuals were reported to have some form of police involvement during the study period. Aggressive behaviors were the primary concern necessitating police involvement. Individuals with police involvement were more likely to be older, have a history of aggression, live outside the family home, and have parents with higher rates of caregiver strain and financial difficulty at baseline. Most parents reported being satisfied to very satisfied with their children’s police encounters. Areas for future research are discussed in relation to prevention planning.
