The concept of multimorbidity in psychiatry refers to the coexistence of multiple health conditions without conceptualizing a central disorder referring to a patient-centered approach that views every diagnosis equally. It emphasizes a shift from focusing on an index disorder to considering interrelated symptoms crucial in psychiatry due to frequent multimorbidity patterns. In clinical practice, multimorbidity guides patient-centered care helping to address the holistic needs of patients and challenging the organization of mental health care. In research, multimorbidity reshapes study outcomes and promotes the development of patient-reported outcome questionnaires, also posing ethical challenges and advocating for the inclusion of multimorbid patients in personalized interventions. Finally, multimorbidity in psychiatry has public health implications aligning with the socioecological systems perspective. This notion aims to improve prognosis, care, and health costs while impacting global mortality and challenging the conceptualization and organization of psychiatric care. |
