Naturalistic Condition

Introduction:Bipolar disorder (BD) is chronic psychiatric disorder by mood swings, symptoms of BD are serious and life-threating. Suicide risk in patients with BD is 25-50%, more frequent during depressive episode (Compton,2000) but with adequate treatment suicide risk can be presented in nearby 50% of patients only (Goodwin, Jamison,2006). Despite these facts data about the changes of treatment habits over the longer period of time under naturalistic condition are lacking.The aim of study:To assess presence of suicidal thoughts and attempts in inpatients with BD and follow-up changes of treatment with lithium over the period of time.Patients and methods:It was retrospective survey of in-patient's files hospitalized at the 1st Dept. of Psychiatry, UPJS, Kosice (1997-2007) with typical limitations for retrospective case survey. All patients had diagnosis of BD (DSM-IV), n=125 (67% of women and 33% of men). We discovered changes in suicidal behaviour with/without treatment of lithium.Results:The first episode was depressive in 62% of patients, average number of episodes: 8,2. There was trend of decrease in use of lithium over the time (68% vs 84% in men, 29% vs 60% in women). The suicidal thoughts were more frequent during depressive episode (in 50% of women and 18% of men). Suicidal thoughts and attempts were 3 times more frequent in women vs men with BD. Suicidal attempts were 4 times more frequent in women with treatment with lithium vs without lithium.

Landmark Study

This chapter provides a summary of a landmark study on bipolar disorder, tackling the serious issue of suicidality in this at-risk group of patients. Is there a difference in suicide risk for patients with bipolar disorder who are treated with lithium, divalproex, or carbamazepine? Starting with that question, it describes the basics of the study, including funding, study location, who was studied, how many patients, study design, study intervention, follow-up, endpoints, results, and criticism and limitations. The chapter briefly reviews other relevant studies and information, discusses implications, and concludes with a relevant case that applies the findings from the study to a clinical scenario.

SummarySuicide prevention for people with schizophrenia or bipolar disorder warrants an evidence-based approach to service design as well as clinical practice. The issue of personal responsibility (diminished when mental capacity is impaired) contributing to reduction of suicide risk has, arguably, been neglected.
