Brief summary
This is a single-site study of people who are undergoing treatment for Treatment Resistant Depression (TRD). The study aims to understand the quality of life in people with TRD and to understand the clinical characteristics of patients as they present at a single time point (cross-sectional). Patients admitted as an inpatient to Albert Road Clinic will be invited to participate. Following consent participants will complete a quality of life questionnaire (AQoL-8D), participate in a short interview with the research team to complete a depression assessment (HAM-D) and obtain medical and treatment history. Participant hospital medical charts will be reviewed to obtain further information regarding medical and treatment history. The results of this study will be used to improve understanding of the burden of disease for people with TRD and to assess the feasibility for creating a registry of data in the future.
