Abstract:

The classification of functional status in the present study can aid clinicians in the identification of bipolar patients, with specific impairment profiles, who may need additional intervention. Future research is needed to understand whether specific interventions targeted at these subgroups can improve the quality of care for this high-need and at-risk population.
