A survey examined how TRD was being diagnosed in real-world practices across Asia. An expert panel then interpreted the results and provided practical recommendations.Methods: Between March and July 2018, 246 clinicians from Hong Kong, Japan, Mainland China, South Korea, and Taiwan were surveyed on how they identified TRD patients according to their own definitions.Results: Most physicians described antidepressant failure as “no response” (79%) or “inadequate response” (82%); fewer chose “failure to achieve remission” (45%). About 40% did not routinely use clinical tools to assess response. Around 52% defined adequate dose target as achieving the label’s upper dose limit. About 58% would treat for 4– 8 weeks before determining antidepressant failure. Most (76%) required the ≥ 2 qualifying antidepressant failures to be from different classes. Approximately 60% considered antidepressant failure(s) from previous depressive episode(s) when diagnosing TRD.Conclusion: Considering the survey results, antidepressant failure can be defined as a failure to achieve remission, or more practically as < 50% improvement in depressive symptoms or inability to return to work/study, and confirmed with a clinical tool. TRD diagnosis also requires ≥ 2 qualifying antidepressant failures within the same depressive episode; from the same or different classes; and achieving at least the minimum effective antidepressant dose for 6– 8 weeks.Keywords: Asia, treatment-resistant depression, diagnosis, management |
