Background Information
• A person diagnosed with bipolar disorder in their mid 20’s
loses
–9 years of life
–12 years normal health
–14 years of working life
Prien & Potter, 1990
• Bipolar disorder (BD) has received only 1/7th of the research
spend on schizophrenia despite similar prevalence and
morbidity
Mental Health Research Funders
Report, 2005
How common is bipolar disorder?
• 1-2 in 100 people for DSM-IV bipolar disorder
• Equate about 1 million people in UK
• 4-8 in 100 for bipolar spectrum conditions
–Similar clinical and functional outcomes to BD
• Around 50% of people presenting with depression
may fit in the bipolar spectrum
Negative consequences
•
•
•
•
Cost to UK £ 5.2 billion
Unemployment rates of over 50%
Completed suicide 18 times higher than general population
Elevated mortality from cardiovascular disease and accidents (x1.5-2)
Gareth Hill et al, 1996; Kupfer et al 2002; Angst et al., 1999
•
•
•
High rates of drug and alcohol misuse
Lifetime prevalence rates for
-46% alcohol disorder
-41% drug disorder
12 month rates of dependence compared to general population
-10 times higher for drug
-8 times higher for alcohol
Regier et al., 1990;Compton et al., 2007; Hasin et al., 2007
Key issues
• It is not good enough to offer people therapies developed for other
conditions
• There are a wide range of psychological interventions available for
BD
• The right intervention delivered by correctly trained therapists
significantly improves functional and symptom outcomes
• Badly matched treatment delivered by inadequately trained
therapists makes people worse
IAPT for Bipolar Disorder Project Objectives
1. Identify a best practice pathway across primary
and secondary specialist services
2. Create a knowledge, skills and competencies
framework
3. Develop a suite of resources and outcome
measures
Key deliverables
1. Identify a best practice pathway across primary and secondary
specialist services




Right treatment, right time, right place
Review current pathway by mapping current service
And speaking to service users and their families
Review of unmet need and undetected case stories / missed
opportunities
 Explore the primary care pathway within selected GP practices
Key deliverables
2. Create a knowledge, skills and competencies framework for
clinicians
 Focused project in selected GP surgeries – understand awareness
and educational / training needs
 Develop and test education and awareness raising tools
 Evaluate resources to support primary care
 Review awareness and skill set in secondary specialist services
 Identify and respond to training needs
Key deliverables
3.
Create a suite of resources and outcome measures
 Thorough evaluation of existing clinical interventions delivered
via Bipolar Disorder service in Birmingham and Solihull
 Formalise a minimum data set for use within Bipolar Disorder
services
 Review the introduction of self-management resources for
selected primary care settings
 Create and consult on a Charter for Good Practice
 Publication and dissemination of data and good practice
findings at the end of the 12 month period

Service User Experience
Outcome data
• Paired samples T-Tests were carried out to determine whether there
were any significant differences between pre-therapy and end of
therapy scores (week 10) on all outcome measures.
• Service user’s scores on depression (PHQ-9) and anxiety (GAD-7)
scales were significantly reduced by the end of the mood on track
programme.
• Scores on the ISS sub-scale – well-being, increased significantly
indicating improvement in well-being.
• Scores on the WASAS significantly reduced indicating that mood
difficulties were impacting less on individuals day to day functioning.
• There was also a significant increase in participant’s scores on the
BRQ measure, indicating a higher subjective sense of recovery
Key Challenges
Project wide
• Cross site project team (across 125 miles)
• However benefits due to applied research / clinical expertise
• Both teams bring knowledge regarding national need
Pathway
• Accessibility of resources and interventions
Knowledge, Skills and Competences
• Didactic versus active facilitation
• Understanding the agents of change within group based interventions
• Practitioner and service user experience e.g. of measures
• Engaging GPs
Resources
• Deciding upon an minimum data set
