• Description:
  Objective
  
  Adults with serious mental illness are disproportionately affected by medical comorbidity, earlier onset of disease, and premature mortality. Integrated self-management interventions have been developed to address both medical and psychiatric illnesses. This systematic review aimed to: review the evidence of the effect of self-management interventions targeting both medical and psychiatric illnesses and evaluate the potential for implementation.
  
  Methods
  
  Databases including CINAHL, Cochrane Central, Ovid Medline, PsycINFO, and Web of Science were searched for articles published between 1946 and July 2015. Studies evaluating integrated medical and psychiatric self-management interventions for adults with schizophrenia spectrum or mood disorders and medical comorbidity were included.
  
  Results
  
  Fifteen studies reported on nine interventions (i.e., nine randomized control trials, six pre/post designs). Most studies demonstrated feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effectiveness; however, clinical effectiveness could not be established in most of the studies due to methodological limitations. Factors identified that may deter implementation included operating costs, impractical length of the intervention, and the workforce needs of these interventions.
  
  Conclusions
  
  Integrated medical and psychiatric illness self-management interventions appear feasible and acceptable, with high potential for clinical effectiveness. However, implementation considerations were rarely considered in intervention development, contributing to limited uptake and reach in real-world settings.
