The objective of this study is to evaluate the symptom severity and the social functioning in a sample of 35 patients who had been derived to BPD (borderline personality disorder) (TLP) Programme of a Day Hospital. The evaluation of a clinical change, performed using the Global Clinical Impression scale (ICG-BPD), showed that patients improved after treatment in 8 of the 10 typical areas of the disorder and that they main-tained this improvement after five years of follow-up, except in impulsivity and affectivity. The results show that the specialized treatment for BPD in Day Hospitals is beneficial for patients suffering from BPD.
