Medical Disorders in Psychiatry Ill Patients

A number of reviews and studies have shown that people with severe mental illness (SMI), including schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, schizoaffective disorder and major depressive disorder, have an excess mortality, being two or three times as high as that in the general population.This mortality gap, which translates to a 13-30 year shortened life expectancy in SMI patients 2 , has widened in recent decades, even in countries where the quality of the health care system is generally acknowledged to be good. About 60% of this excess mortality is due to physical illness. Individuals with SMI are more prone to many different physical health problems.These diseases are also prevalent in the general population, but their impact on individuals with SMI is significantly greater.so this study is about to know clinical profile, laboratory parameters and treatment associated disorders in mentally ill patients and to categorise the medical illness according to systemic involvement, so that will help in to improve heath.
