Prevalence, Predictors, and Moderators of Relapse in Severe Mental Disorders: Evidence from Ndera Neuropsychiatric Teaching Hospital, Rwanda

Key Points

Relapse prevention is more effective when medication adherence is prioritized, especially in schizophrenia.
High psychological well-being significantly influences the protective role of medication adherence against relapse.
Tailoring management strategies to specific diagnostic subgroups is crucial for improving patient outcomes.
Enhanced adherence strategies are essential for effective relapse prevention, particularly in mental health treatment.

Abstract

Medication adherence alone showed inconsistent effects; its protective role was pronounced in schizophrenia and among patients with high psychological well-being. Relapse prevention should prioritize enhancing adherence in schizophrenia and integrating psychological well-being interventions. Tailoring management to diagnostic subgroups is essential for improving outcomes.
