> The Expert Consensus Panel for Bipolar Disorder
>
> The following participants in the Expert Consensus Survey were identified from several sources: recent research publications and funded grants, the DSM-IV advisers for mood disorders, the Task Force for the American Psychiatric Association’s Practice Guidelines for the Treatment of Patients with Bipolar Disorder, and those who have worked on other mood disorder guidelines. Of the 65 experts to whom we sent the bipolar disorder survey, 58 (89%) replied. The recommendations in the guidelines reflect the aggregate opinions of the experts and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of each individual on each question.
