Resumo: This study describes the clinical and social demographic profile of adolescent patients in a mental health outpatient unit in São Paulo. Parents and caregivers of 107 adolescents (age range: 12-18 years; 71,9% male) were interviewed. The patients were randomly selected among 213 patients who attended the service in 2001. A structured interview was administered to all parents and caregivers. The most prevalent diagnosis in the sample was Global Development Disorder. Eight percent of the patients had never attended school. These findings highlight the importance of certain aspects of mental assistance to adolescents, such as a multidisciplinary approach and family interventions. In addition, there is a need for improvements in the access to education and health, with regionalization of mental health services and optimization of community resources.

Fueron entrevistados 107 padres y cuidadores de adolescentes (edad entre 12 y 18 años; 71,9% perteneciente al sexo masculino) seleccionados aleatoriamente a partir de un total de 213 adolescentes atendidos en el año de 2001. Una entrevista estructurada fue administrada a todos los padres y cuidadores de los pacientes seleccionados. El diagnóstico de mayor prevalencia en la población atendida fue el de Trastorno Global del Desarrollo. En relación a la escolaridad, se verificó que 8% de los adolescentes entrevistados nunca había freqüentado la escuela. Teniendo em consideración estes resultados, cabe destacar la importancia de determinados aspectos de la asistencia al adolescente en la esfera de la salud mental: regionalización de los servicios; apoyo a las familias; utilización de recursos comunitarios; abordaje multidisciplinar e inclusión escolar.Este trabalho tem por objetivo descrever as características clínicas e sociodemográficas da população adolescente usuária de um serviço de saúde mental na cidade de São Paulo.
