NCT ID: NCT02413918

Last Updated: 2018-02-08

Results Overview

The Bipolar Inventory of Symptoms Scale is a reliable and valid measure which assesses Depression and Mania symptoms of bipolar disorder. There are 42 items; each item is rated on a 0-4 scale. The BISS is a clinician-rated instrument. The Scale is rated as follows: 0 Not at all 1. Slight 2. Mild 3. Moderate 4. Severe Each of the 42 items is rated separately, with a score, based on the most recent 7 day period. For Depression: Items 1-21 items of the assessment are summed up and multiplied by 4 to give a cumulative score out of 84. The higher the score, the more severe the depression. For Mania: Items 22-42 are summed up and multiplied by 4 to give a cumulative score out of 84. The higher the score, the more severe the mania. The mean is calculated from the change in score between baseline and week 20.
