Abstract
Panic disorder, which is found in about 1.5 percent of the population at some time in their lives, includes recurrent episodes of sudden, unpredictable, intense fear accompanied by symptoms such as palpitations, chest pain, and faintness. Panic attacks, which do not meet these diagnostic criteria fully, are two to three times more prevalent. Since panic symptoms can mimic those of other medical disorders, patients with these symptoms use medical services frequently.This publication has 26 references indexed in Scilit:
