2 INFORMATION FOR PARTICIPANTS Statement of Need The STandards for BipoLar Excellence (STABLE) project outlined 15 evidence-based measures for quality assessment and improvement of care for patients with bipolar disorder (BPD). One of these relates to lipid measurement and assesses the percentage of patients diagnosed with bipolar disorder and treated with an atypical antipsychotic agent who receive at least one assessment for hyperlipidemia within the initial 16 weeks of treatment. This STABLE measure is based on joint recommendations from the American Psychiatric Association (APA) and the America Diabetes Association (ADA) and the fact that studies quantifying levels of clinician performance reveal that this assessment is underperformed. This educational intervention is designed to help you improve your practice by addressing clinician gaps in and health system barriers to implementation of consistent lipid measurement. This neurosciencecme Live and On Demand activity will provide the rationale for lipid measurement in bipolar disorder pharmacotherapy and strategies for increasing the frequency with which you perform it and respond appropriately to test results. Center for Quality Assessment and Improvement in Mental Health. The STAndards for BipoLar Excellence Project. Available at: Accessed October 28, Haupt DW, Rosenblatt LC, Kim E, Baker RA, Whitehead R, Newcomer JW. Prevalence and predictors of lipid and glucose monitoring in commercially insured patients treated with second-generation antipsychotic agents. Am J Psychiatry 2009;166: Activity Goal To increase clinician knowledge of and performance against the STABLE measure related to assessment of hyperlipidemia in patients with bipolar disorder who are being treated with an atypical antipsychotic agent. Learning Objectives At the end of this CE activity, participants should be able to: Identify strategies to overcome barriers that hinder lipid measurement. Increase the rate at which you perform at least one assessment for hyperlipidemia within the initial 16-week treatment period among patients with BPD who are being treated with an atypical antipsychotic agent, in accordance with the STABLE measure regarding lipid assessment. Select an appropriate clinical strategy for addressing an abnormal lipid test. The following learning objectives pertain only to those requesting CNE credit: Explain the rationale for measuring lipids in patients with BPD who take atypical antipsychotic agents in order to effectively handle patient queries. Describe a patient-centered strategy that will help patients with BPD obtain blood draws for needed laboratory tests. Target Audience Physicians, physician assistants, nurses, nurse practitioners, psychologists, pharmacists, social workers, certified case managers, and other healthcare professionals with an interest in bipolar disorder.
