O3.3. COMORBID SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS ASSOCIATED WITH LIFE EXPECTANCY REDUCTION IN PEOPLE WITH PSYCHOTIC DISORDERS: AN ELECTRONIC CASE REGISTER STUDY

摘要

People with psychotic disorders have a markedly reduced life expectancy compared to the general population. Comorbid substance use disorders (dual diagnosis) contribute towards poorer treatment engagement and worse clinical outcomes but their impact on mortality is uncertain. We estimated the association of comorbid substance use disorders with life expectancy in a large sample of patients with psychotic disorders using an electronic health record (EHR) case register.
