Bipolar depression remains a burden for patients living with bipolar I disorder. Therefore, faculty experts came together on World Bipolar Day in a call to action to the healthcare community to improve the diagnosis and treatment of bipolar I depression. In this 60-minute activity previously aired as a live broadcast, faculty review the diagnosis and treatment of a patient case, discussing the utility of tools in diagnosis and strategies to overcome common clinical challenges. An overview of treatments recommended for bipolar I depression is also provided.
