Staging systems in bipolar disorder: an International Society for Bipolar Disorders Task Force Report

Abstract: Most studies to date indicate that globally defined late-stage patients have a worse overall prognosis and poorer response to standard treatment, consistent with patterns for end-stage medical disorders. We believe it is possible at this juncture to speak broadly of 'early'- and 'late'-stage bipolar disorder. Next steps require further collaborative efforts to consider the details of preillness onset and intermediary stages, and how many additional stages are optimal.

“…Overall, the staging models describe three broad clinical stages: (I) individuals at increased risk for developing BD due to family history as well as certain subsyndromal symptoms predictive of conversion into full‐blown BD; (II) patients with fewer episodes and optimal functioning in the interepisodic periods, and (III) patients with recurrent episodes as well as decline in functioning and cognition 31. So far, the heterogeneity intrinsic to BD has prevented the clinical use of staging systems 32.…”

“…Patients were classified as being in the early or late stage of BD following the Kapczinski et al classification. 24 Healthy volunteers (n=34) were divided into two ageand sex-matched groups to control for age differences in the early-and late-stage experimental groups (early and late groups, age [range] = 32 and 36 years, respectively). All volunteers were recruited at HCPA.…”

“…3,4 The progression of BD is frequently associated with an increased number of episodes, [5][6][7][8] subclinical symptoms in the interepisodic period, 9,10 higher rates of comorbidities, 11 increased risk of suicide, 12 a higher number of hospital admissions, 13 and poorer response to treatment. 6 Furthermore, several studies have shown a strong association between number of mood episodes and unfavorable clinical outcomes, especially cognitive and functional impairment.…”
