The Maudsley Practice guidelines for physical health conditions in psychiatry

The Maudsley Practice Guidelines for Physical Health Conditions in Psychiatry aims to bridge the gap between psychiatric and physical health services for people with Severe Mental Illness (SMI), services which are usually geographically and organizationally separate. This will be achieved by providing psychiatric healthcare practitioners with an evidence-based practical guide to investigation and management of common physical health conditions in SMI, as well as guidance regarding appropriate referrals to medical subspecialties.
