Who is studied

The study population consists of adult patients aged 18 years or older who are attended at Basurto University Hospital, a general university hospital providing secondary-level care to the Bilbao area (Spain), and who are diagnosed with catatonic syndrome during routine hospital care. Eligible participants include patients evaluated in any clinical setting, including the Emergency Department and inpatient medical or psychiatric units. Catatonia is diagnosed according to DSM-5 criteria and supported by systematic clinical assessment and severity quantification using the Bush-Francis Catatonia Rating Scale. Patients with catatonia of any etiology are included, reflecting an unselected adult hospital population.
