Overview
What you will study
Approximately 30% of people with schizophrenia have treatment-resistant schizophrenia (TRS), meaning they have not responded to at least two antipsychotic trials.
Research into TRS is ongoing, with developments in assessment and treatment helping to improve the functional outcomes and quality of life of individuals and their carers.
This Treatment Resistant Schizophrenia course offered by University of Melbourne brings together the latest research and developments in clinical practice to provide health professionals with a comprehensive understanding and up-to-date summary of the epidemiology, assessment and treatment of TRS. For those with an understanding of TRS, it provides a refresher in these key areas.
