[Application of schedule for affective disorders and schizophrenia research diagnostic criteria (SADS/RDC) in manic patients].
One hundred and nine clinically diagnosed manic patients were examined and re-diagnosed with SADS/RDC. The results of joint-test and test-retest showed that the reliabilities of the subscales of SADS were good enough for clinical use. The mania subscale score of SADS showed significant negative correlation with GAS score, but positive correlation with SI or BRMS. The results of joint-test and test-retest showed that the diagnosis of mania by the use of SADS/RDC were reliable. The concurrent validity between SADS/RDC and CMA-H was higher. This study indicated that SADA/RDC can be used satisfactorily in clinical practice.
