Mortality and suicide risk in treatment-resistant depression: an observational study of the long-term impact of intervention.

Major depressive disorder is a common global disease that causes a significant societal burden. Most interventional studies of depression provide a limited assessment of the interventions on mortality and suicide risks. This study utilizes data from an observational registry of patients with major d...

A total of 636 patients were available for an intent-to-treat analysis of all-cause mortality, suicide and suicidal ideation.

Treatment with vagus nerve stimulation produced a statistically lower relative risk of suicidal ideation 0.80, 95% confidence interval (0.68,0.95).

description Major depressive disorder is a common global disease that causes a significant societal burden. Most interventional studies of depression provide a limited assessment of the interventions on mortality and suicide risks.
