Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

People with severe and persistent mental disorders (or SMI, Severe Mental Illness) have a life expectancy which is 20 years less than the general population, mainly due to excess mortality related to cardiovascular disease. Moreover, despite an overall increase in life expectancy, the gap is widening between people with long-term psychological disorders and the general population.

This early excess mortality is explained by disparities between people with SMI and the general population not only in access to and use of health services but also in the quality and type of care provided. There is also an over-representation of risk factors and cardiovascular pathologies regardless of the mental disorder, despite the current recommendations for best practices.

The World Health Organization has defined the fight against somatic comorbidities as one of the axes of the European Mental Health Plan and one of the reference themes of the World Health Organization Mental Health Evidence and Research Programme (EPSM-Lille-Métropole). The Groupement de Coopération Sanitaire pour la recherche et la formation en santé mentale, which brings together 17 hospitals in France and relays the actions of the World Health Organization's Collaborating Centre, has decided to make it into a national research project.

Moreover, it is recognized that "medical" management of a disease is all the more effective when the patient is involved. However, the empowerment of people with long-term psychological disorders has never been put at the centre of a strategy to reduce cardiovascular risk.

In this context, we hypothesize that one of the keys to reducing cardiovascular risk would be to take into account the experience and representations of this risk by all stakeholders (people with long-term psychological disorders, their carers, primary health professionals and psychiatric professionals).
