    Study Notes

    Psychosocial Interventions for Psychosis and Bipolar Disorder

    • Research examines the difficulties people with psychosis/bipolar face in their lives and the course of their illnesses.
    • Potential approaches to improve prognosis and recovery are explored.
    • Social participation and quality of life improvement strategies are also considered.

    The Course of Psychosis/Schizophrenia

    • A systematic review and meta-analysis (Lally et al., 2017) of 19,000 people found a pooled remission rate of 58% after the first episode of psychosis.
    • Remission rates haven't improved significantly since 1976.
    • A pooled estimate of 38% recovery was observed after an average follow-up of 7 years.
    • Recovery rates are higher in the USA compared to Europe.
    • Recent 21st-century studies (Huxley et al., 2021) show a more positive prognosis for first-episode psychosis than 20th-century studies.

    The Course of Bipolar Disorder

    • Research on Bipolar Disorder is less extensive than on Psychosis.
    • Most people with Bipolar experience a relapsing-remitting course, with periods of recovery in between episodes, although approximately 15% chronically unwell.
    • Data from long-term follow-up studies (e.g., 15 years, Coryell et al., 1999) suggests a 16% remission rate for 5 years or more.
    • A significant portion of time (20%-44%) is spent in a depressed state when individuals are not functioning well.
    • Little evidence of progress in bipolar prognosis in the past few decades is found.

    A Challenge

    • There is limited evidence of significant progress in mental health outcomes for severe mental health problems such as psychosis and bipolar.
    • Antipsychotics and deinstitutionalisation introduced in the 1950s could have been the last significant factors impacting this issue.
    • The development of physical health conditions (e.g., Cancer, CVD) has progressed significantly.

    Outcomes and Implementation Gaps

    • Mental health outcomes may still be better or the same in countries with less available mental health care.
    • Evidence-based treatments and effective implementation in clinical practice are crucial.
    • Implementation gaps exist for better interventions.
    • Many years exist before wide-scale implementation.
    • Issues with implementation methods/models are commonly observed in mental healthcare.
    • Social determinants of mental health are significant barriers (e.g., austerity, inequalities)

    Routes to Improving Outcomes

    • Key improvements focus on service/treatment implementation, enhanced service systems, and focus on user recovery definitions.
    • Implementing existing evidence-based interventions is crucial, along with enhancing teams and services, focusing on priorities of service users, and integrating the biopsychosocial triad into strategies.
    • Early intervention for psychosis shows promising results.
    • Establishing specialized teams and social interventions in psychosis and bipolar, promoting improved social quality and participation, may lead to higher standards of care.

    Social Participation & Employment

    • Employment rates are significantly low for those with psychosis (5-10%) and bipolar disorder (20-50%).
    • Social participation and relationships among people with severe mental illness are affected by many factors and are not well studied.
    • Limited evidence exists on improving social connections, relationships, and parenting among individuals with severe mental illness.
    • Key limitations include ambivalence about professional roles in services, societal factors, and housing issues.
