About this study

Official title: Prevalence of Depressive Symptoms in Manic Episodes of Bipolar Patients: an Observational Study

Observational, non-interventional, transversal, multicenter, open label (No treatment is involved). The primary objective is to detect the prevalence of depressive symptoms in bipolar patients admitted to a psychiatric Unit due to an acute mania episode. Secondary objectives include 1) to evaluate, the relationship between depressive symptoms and severity of mania; 2) to evaluate, the relationship between depressive symptoms and anxiety; 3) to evaluate, the relationship between depressive symptoms and psychotic symptoms; 4) to evaluate, the relationship between depressive symptoms and insight; 5) to evaluate, the relationship between depressive symptoms and clinical global impression; 6) to evaluate, the relationship between depressive symptoms and previous treatment with antipsychotics (whatever the antipsychotic was); 7) to evaluate, the relationship between depressive symptoms and length of admission; 8) to evaluate factors (demographic, evolution…) which could be involved in the presence of depressive symptoms within an acute manic episode; 9) to evaluate, the difference on the initial prescription due to the detection of depressive symptoms; 10) to evaluate, if exists, differences on the previous psychiatric diagnosis in patients with and without depressive symptoms.
