abstract="RESULTS of a clinical follow-up study are reported for the efficiency of a highly structured day hospital therapy on alcohol-dependent patients. 63 patients were included in the study. At 24-month follow-up 70.8% of the patients were successfully personally interviewed. 36.5% had remained abstinent at the 24-month follow-up evaluation. The following predictors were identified for a successful day hospital withdrawal therapy: &quot;Living in the own home&quot;, &quot;Being married or living in a constant relationship before starting therapy&quot;, &quot;No suicide attempts&quot;, &quot;No relapses with alcohol or illegal drugs while being in the day hospital therapy&quot;, &quot;Regular termination of the therapy&quot;, &quot;Constant relationship at the end of the therapy&quot;. Therapeutic implications of these results are discussed and the current knowledge on the efficiency of day hospital patient therapies on alcohol-dependents is presented. © ecomed Medizin, Verlagsgruppe Hüthig Jehle Rehm GmbH.<p /><p>Language: de</p>",
