摘要
Units which specialise in the treatment of affective (mood) disorders are gaining popularity in Australia and overseas. This paper examines the history, role and function of these units with particular reference to their benefits and disadvantages. Specialised units can offer advantages in the assessment and management of depression and bipolar illness, as well as being centres for research and education. Further research into their effectiveness is needed to enable their rational integration into existing psychiatric services.
