A Non-Interventional Study of Patients With Persistent Symptoms of Schizophrenia to Describe Medical Resource Utilization and Burden of Illness

November 1, 2016 updated by: Hoffmann-La Roche
This non-interventional, cross-sectional survey and retrospective review will evaluate the medical resource utilization and burden of illness in patients who have persistent symptoms of schizophrenia despite receiving adequately dosed antipsychotic treatment and who have not had an acute exacerbation in the 3 months prior to enrolment. Medical records will be reviewed for a minimum of 3 months and up to 12 months prior to screening. Data collection at a single visit will include rating scales and questionnaires that reflect the clinical status and the quality of life of the patients and the economic impact of schizophrenia.
