Some staff talked about how emotional difficulties like BPD are often not the first thought when men present with distress compared to women.

Staff anxieties about risk management may influence how they perceive and care for men in inpatient wards. The findings suggest that male\u2010specific training in identifying and treating BPD should be provided for staff on inpatient wards, to improve knowledge and confidence.<\/jats:p><\/jats:list-item>\n<\/jats:list>\n<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Abstract<\/jats:title><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Introduction<\/jats:title><jats:p>Research highlights discrepancies in recognition of borderline personality disorder (BPD) in men, despite similar rates of prevalence across genders.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Aim<\/jats:title><jats:p>To investigate inpatient mental health professionals' experiences of delivering treatment for males with a diagnosis of BPD.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Method<\/jats:title><jats:p>Six mental health professionals working within adult acute inpatient wards completed a semi\u2010structured interview.
