This study investigated the prevalence of MDD and suicide risk among residents in an LTC facility in northern Thailand.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Methods:\u2002<\/jats:bold> For this cross\u2010sectional study, a care team conducted a screening program for MDD and suicide risk among LTC residents in 2011. The screening process used the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview, the Geriatric Depression Scale\u201015, the patient and caregiver versions of the Cornell Scale for Depression in Dementia, the Core Symptom Index and the Mini Mental State Examination.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results:\u2002<\/jats:bold> In total, 81 (of 113) residents participated in the study. The mean age was 76.96 \u00b1 7.17\u2003years old (range, 63\u201394), and 55.6% of participants were women. With the Mini Mental State Examination, 40.7% were found to have cognitive impairment, and with the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview, 23.5% met the criteria for current major depressive episodes. Though the majority was in the low\u2010risk group, 26 residents (32.1%) were reported as being at risk of suicide. The patient and caregiver versions of the Cornell Scale for Depression in Dementia, the Geriatric Depression Scale\u201015 and the Core Symptom Index proved useful for predicting major depressive episodes among the residents (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.001, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>= 0.004, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>= 0.001 and <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.001, respectively), including those with cognitive impairment (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>= 0.006, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>= 0.020, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>= 0.049 and <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>= 0.012, respectively).<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusions:\u2002<\/jats:bold> Nearly one\u2010quarter of LTC facility residents were found to suffer from MDD, and a suicide risk was reported for one\u2010third, though most of the cases were in the low\u2010risk category. Further studies with a larger sample size are recommended to make these findings more precise and universally applicable.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1479-8301.2011.00383.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,3,15]],"date-time":"2012-03-15T08:10:41Z","timestamp":1331799041000},"page":"11-17","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":58,"title":["Prevalence of major depressive disorders and suicide in long\u2010term care facilities: a report from northern Thailand"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Nahathai","family":"WONGPAKARAN","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tinakon","family":"WONGPAKARAN","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,3,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_2","first-page":"1","article-title":"The effects of guided imagery on affect, cognition, and pain in older adults in residential care: a randomized controlled study from Thailand","volume":"15","author":"Elsegood KJ","year":"2011","journal-title":"Res Gerontol Nurs"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_2","unstructured":"WongboonsinK.Demographic Dividend Contributed to Demographic Change in Thailand.
