More than one in eight patients seen at a major sex assault treatment unit last year had taken so much drink they were unsure if they had been attacked.
The Sexual Assault Treatment Unit (SATU) in Dublin's Rotunda Hospital, one of six such units in the country, last year treated 341 men and women, 26 more than in 2009.
However, 41 patients said they could not be sure if they had been assaulted because they had drunk so much alcohol.
