Treatment-Resistant Depression & the Burden on Patients, GPs, their Families and the Healthcare System

Treatment-resistant depression (TRD) represents a key unmet need in the management of Major Depressive Disorder.

Lack of remission and treatment-resistant depression are associated with a worse quality of life, higher comorbidity, increased resource use, social and occupational disability and worse therapeutic outcomes.

• Definition of TRD
• The burden of TRD
• Case study describing a patient with TRD
• Diagnostic Evaluation of TRD
