This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows:
To evaluate the effectiveness of EWS plus TAU or EWS plus psychological therapy versus TAU alone or psychological treatment (without EWS) independently on time to recurrence of any bipolar episode and hospitalisation, and other clinically relevant outcome measures.
To evaluate the effectiveness of intermittent medication used on recognition of EWS without continued mood-stabilising medication versus TAU involving continued mood-stabilising medication on time to recurrence of any bipolar episodes.
This is a protocol.
