Application of a mathematical model in the diagnosis of psychotic complications formed against the background of the use of modern synthetic psychoactive substances

Background. In various areas of medical practice, to create new effective technologies, the need for mathematicalmodeling methods has increased. Objective: to test the application of a mathematical model in the process of diagnosing intoxication psychoses, formed against the background of the use of synthetic psychoactive substances. Research Material. Male patients (n=157) with psychotic complications resulting from the use of synthetic psychoactive substances. The mean age of the examined patients was 35.7±7.4 years. Methods: clinical-psychopathological,clinical-anamnestic, clinical-follow-up, gas-liquid chromatography, a program for mathematical computer modelingof the creation of associative rules. Results. The data on the appropriateness of the mathematical prediction of theprobable determination of the psychoactive substance in persons with intoxication psychosis, which developedagainst the background of its use, to the results of the chemical-toxicological study of the biological fluids of the patient’s body were obtained. Conclusions. Clinical and syndromological characteristics of psychotic complications,formed against the background of the use of new synthetic psychoactive substances, were revealed. The diagnosticcriteria have been determined, on the basis of which it is possible to ascertain the most probable etiology of intoxication psychosis.
