Abstract

Mortality in a psychiatric population was studied. During the first two years following hospital discharge, natural deaths, accidental deaths, and suicide were excessive. After two years, suicide and accidental deaths continued to be excessive, but not natural deaths. Diagnostic categories were linked to cause-specific deaths. Clinical implications were discussed.
