Abstract:
Advance directives in psychiatry (ADP) allow patients to anticipate their requests for care. Their purpose is to promote the acceptation of care, prevent relapses and maintain the autonomy of people with severe and persistent disorders such as bipolar disorder (BD). The risk of relapse is particularly high during the perinatal period. ADPs could be a tool to facilitate care pathway and so maintain mood stability for women with BD during the perinatal period and provide good conditions for child development.
