Untreated or inappropriately treated bipolar disorder can have a significant negative impact on the quality of life of our patients. The result can be impaired judgment and decision making, compromised physical health, and decreased social stability.
Advances in our understanding of the disorder and medical therapies to combat it put us in a better position than ever before to help our patients cope with the disorder and lead more productive lives.
The intent of this self-study multimedia CME activity is to update participants on the state-of-the-art regarding tools in our therapeutic armamentarium. Specific questions the content of this activity addresses can be found on the "Discussion Points" page of this web site. With that in mind, this CME activity is intended for psychiatrists who treat patients with or at risk for bipolar disorder.
Registered participants are expected to view each presentation, reflect on its content, and complete the self-assessment questions after each module. The estimated time a learner will need to complete the entire activity is 3 ½ hours. Participants who complete all requirements will receive a CME certificate online. Please visit the "Registration Info" page to review the system requirements to access the activity content.
