Multi-component Intervention for Diabetes in Adults With Serious Mental Illness
Status unconfirmed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Schizophrenia, Obesity, Diabetes, Lifestyle Risk Reduction, Serious Mental Illness
In brief
Persons with schizophrenia and other serious mental illnesses have a high risk for type 2 diabetes and an increased risk of premature mortality compared to the general population. The goals of the proposed study are to implement a multimodal lifestyle intervention to reduce that risk in these individuals living in residential care facilities, a common housing modality for people with serious mental illnesses. If successful, this intervention will lead to reduction in excess medical comorbidity and mortality in persons with serious mental illnesses.
