Abstract
Introduction: Bipolar mood disorder is a common, severe, and persistent mental disease with periods of major mania and depression. Given the high prevalence and increasing incidence of this disease, the study aimed to identify and assess the effects of multiple risk factors on recurrence of this disease.Methods: This is a retrospective study conducted in 2015 on 100 patients with bipolar I disorder (BP-I) with at least twice admissions in psychiatric hospital of Ibn Sina in Bandar Abbas. Patients were divided into two groups and all required information was gather by the researcher-made checklist. Finally, all collected data were entered into SPSS version 19 and analyzed using descriptive statistics (average percentage, etc.) as well as Chi-square test, correlation, regression, and ANOVA with repeated measures.Results: Regarding quantitative factors, the two groups were different only in terms of the number of hospitalizations (t: 2.10, df:98, and ? < 0.038). It is worth noting the difference between the two groups was also significant regarding the interval between two consecutive admissions as the grouping index (?: 0.000, df: 98, t:-6.35) Conclusion: According to the study, previous number of admissions and family history had direct relationship with bipolar disorder recurrence and treatment completion had indirect correlation with the relapse.
