ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

To examine clinical and sociodemographic differences between patients with delusional disorder; with and without diagnoses of an additional severe mental disorder (SMD) or cognitive impairment.

METHODS:

Population-based study including all individuals diagnosed with DD between 2005 and 2021 from a large catchment area in Madrid, Spain. Sociodemographic and clinical characteristics and the antipsychotic prescription patterns of the study population was described. Patients were divided into (i) patients with DD and no additional diagnosis of SMD or cognitive impairment (DD group), (ii) patients with DD and a diagnosis of an additional SMD (DD-SMD group), and (iii) patients with DD and cognitive impairment (DD-CI group).

RESULTS:

Of 1109 patients with a DD diagnosis (62.5 % female), 131 (11.8 %) patients were diagnosed with an additional SMD, and 69 (6.2 %) were diagnosed with cognitive impairment. DD-SMD patients were on average 10 years younger and had longer time between first mental healthcare contact and DD disorder than DD patients. DD-CI patients were on average 10 years older and had a higher proportion of females. Paliperidone (21.9 %) and aripiprazole (20.6 %) were the modal antipsychotic drugs chosen overall. DD-SMD patients were more likely to receive paliperidone and to be prescribed long-acting injectable medication; DD-CI were more likely to receive risperidone or quetiapine; and DD patients were more likely to receive olanzapine.

CONCLUSIONS:

Sociodemographic and clinical characteristics and choice of antipsychotic drug and delivery method for individuals with DD vary based on its comorbidity.
