DSM-5:Classification, Criteria, and Use

PurposeThis course is for clinicians who are alreadyfamiliar with DSM-IV-TR, its content, and itsuse. This presentation is solely to facilitatetransition from DSM-IV-TR to DSM-5 and isnot intended to be a basic course on DSM-5.Copyright 2013. American Psychiatric Association.

DSMI: 1952 influenced byMenninger’s WW II classificationscheme called Medical 203 for theArmy. ICD 6 had just beenpublished. 106 mental disorders DSM II: 1968 still withpsychodynamic influence

DSMII Seventh Printing: 1974Removed Homosexuality as adisease (though retained sexualorientation disturbance) DSM III: 1980 Influenced by RDCused at Wash U and NYSPI, theMultiaxial system appeared

Definition of a Mental DisorderDSM-5:A mental disorder is a syndrome characterized by clinicallysignificant disturbance in an individualʼs cognition, emotionregulation, or behavior that reflects a dysfunction in thepsychological, biological, or developmental processesunderlying mental functioning. Mental disorders are usuallyassociated with significant distress or disability in social,occupational, or other important activities. An expectable orculturally approved response to a common stressor or loss,such as the death of a loved one, is not a mental disorder.Socially deviant behavior (e.g., political, religious, or sexual)and conflicts that are primarily between the individual andsociety are not mental disorders unless the deviance or conflictresults from a dysfunction in the individual, as described above.Reprinted with permission from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition,(Copyright 2013). American Psychiatric Association.

Definition of a Mental Disorder The diagnosis of a mental disordershould have clinical utility: it should helpclinicians to determine prognosis,treatment plans, and potential treatmentoutcomes for their patients. However, thediagnosis of a mental disorder is notequivalent to a need for treatment.Copyright 2013. American Psychiatric Association.

Definition of a Mental Disorder Approaches to validating diagnosticcriteria for discrete categorical mentaldisorders have included the followingtypes of evidence: antecedent validators (similar genetic markers,family traits, temperament, and environmentalexposure);concurrent validators (similar neural substrates,biomarkers, emotional and cognitive processing,and symptom similarity);and predictive validators (similar clinical courseand treatment response).Copyright 2013. American Psychiatric Association.

Definition of a Mental Disorder Available evidence shows that thesevalidators cross existing diagnosticboundaries but tend to congregate morefrequently within and across adjacentDSM-5 chapter groups.Until incontrovertible etiological orpathophysiological mechanisms areidentified to fully validate specificdisorders or disorder spectra, the mostimportant standard for the DSM-5disorder criteria will be their clinical utility.Copyright 2013.

25“According the architects of DSM-5, theintroduction of dimensions is their mostimportance advance” --Abraham Nussbaum, MDquoting Darrel Regier (Int J Methods Psychiatr Res, 2007)25

26 WHYDIMENSIONS? * (per Nussbaum, A. . 2013)Prior versions of DSM could not always distinguish normalityfrom pathology and one mental disorder from another.By introducing dimensions we can:1. Acknowledge psychiatric symptoms that are not partdiaganostic criteria of patientʼs primary psychiatric disorder(e.g. panic attacks in pt with MDD)2. measure the magnitude of a symptom (whether part of theprimary disorder or not)3. track progress of treatment4. screen for mental disorders in particular patient popluations(e.g. anxiety among adolescent patients)

TheMultiaxial diagnosis is nolonger used In place of Axis I to V, thediagnoses are listed withpsychiatric and medical combined. The convention has been to list theprimary diagnosis for the visit first.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)(Neurodevelopmental Disorders) ASD replaces DSM-IVʼs autistic disorder,Aspergerʼs disorder, childhood disintegrationdisorder, and pervasive developmentaldisorder not otherwise specified Rationale: Clinicians had been applying the DSM-IVcriteria for these disorders inconsistently andincorrectly; subsequently, reliability data to supporttheir continued separation was very poor. Specifiers can be used to describe variants of ASD(e.g., the former diagnosis of Aspergerʼs can now bediagnosed as autism spectrum disorder, withoutintellectual impairment and without structurallanguage impairment).Copyright 2013. American Psychiatric Association.

AutismSpectrum Disorder associatedwith Rett Syndrome, Level 2Communication Supports, Level 3Behavior supports, With IntellectualImpairment, With Language Impairment(Phrase speech) OR: Autism Spectrum Disorder Level 1behavior supports without intellectual orlanguage impairments

Intellectual Disability (IntellectualDevelopmental Disorder) Mental retardation was renamed intellectualdisability (intellectual developmental disorder) Rationale: The term intellectual disability reflects thewording adopted into U.S. law in 2010 (Rosaʼs Law), inuse in professional journals, and endorsed by certainpatient advocacy groups. The term intellectualdevelopmental disorder is consistent with languageproposed for ICD-11.Greater emphasis on adaptive functioning deficitsrather than IQ scores alone Rationale: Standardized IQ test scores were overemphasized as the determining factor of abilities in DSMIV. Consideration of functioning provides a morecomprehensive assessment of the individual.Copyright 2013. American Psychiatric Association.

Intellectual disability (intellectual developmental disorder) is a disorderwith onset during the developmental period that includes bothintellectual and adaptive functioning deficits in conceptual, social, andpractical domains. The following three criteria must be met:A.Deficits in intellectual functions, such as reasoning, problem solving,planning, abstract thinking, judgment, academic learning, and learningfrom experience, confirmed by both clinical assessment andindividualized, standardized intelligence testing.B.Deficits in adaptive functioning that result in failure to meetdevelopmental and socio-cultural standards for personal independenceand social responsibility. Without ongoing support, the adaptive deficitslimit functioning in one or more activities of daily life, such ascommunication, social participation, and independent living, acrossmultiple environments, such as home, school, work, and community.C.Onset of intellectual and adaptive deficits during the developmentalperiod.Reprinted with permission from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition,(Copyright 2013). American Psychiatric Association.

Specific Learning Disorder Now presented as a single disorder with codedspecifiers for specific deficits in reading, writing,and mathematics Rationale: There was widespread concern amongclinicians and researchers that clinical reality did notsupport DSM-IVʼs three independent learningdisorders. This is particularly important given thatmost children with specific learning disorder manifestdeficits in more than one area. By reclassifying these as a single disorder, separatespecifiers can be used to code the level of deficitspresent in each of the three areas for any person.Copyright 2013. American Psychiatric Association.

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Age of onset was raised from 7 years to 12years Rationale: Numerous large-scale studies indicate that,in many cases, onset is not identified until after age 7years, when challenged by school requirements.Recall of onset is more accurate at 12 years.The symptom threshold for adults age 17 yearsand older was reduced to five Rationale: The reduction in symptom threshold was foradults only and was made based on longitudinal studiesshowing that patients tend to have fewer symptoms inadulthood than in childhood. This should result in aminimal increase in the prevalence of adult ADHD.Copyright 2013. American Psychiatric Association.

Schizophrenia(Schizophrenia Spectrum and Other Psychotic Disorders) Elimination of special treatment of bizarredelusions and “special” hallucinations inCriterion A (characteristic symptoms) Rationale: This was removed due to the poor reliabilityin distinguishing bizarre from non-bizarre delusions.At least one of two required symptoms to meetCriterion A must be delusions, hallucinations, ordisorganized speech Rationale: This will improve reliability and preventindividuals with only negative symptoms and catatoniafrom being diagnosed with schizophrenia.Copyright 2013. American Psychiatric Association.

Schizophrenia (contʼd) Deletionof specific subtypes Rationale:DSM-IVʼs subtypes were shownto have very poor reliability and validity. Theyalso failed to differentiate from one anotherbased on treatment response and course.Copyright 2013. American Psychiatric Association.

Schizoaffective Disorder Now based on the lifetime (rather thanepisodic) duration of illness in which the moodand psychotic symptoms described in CriterionA occur Rationale: The criteria in DSM-IV have demonstratedpoor reliability and clinical utility, in part because thelanguage in DSM-IV regarding the duration of illnessis ambiguous. This revision is consistent with thelanguage in schizophrenia and in mood episodes,which explicitly describe a longitudinal rather thanepisodic course. Similarly applying a longitudinalcourse to schizoaffective disorder will aid in itsdifferential diagnosis from these related disorders.Copyright 2013. American Psychiatric Association.

Catatonia Now exists as a specifier forneurodevelopmental, psychotic, mood andother mental disorders; as well as for othermedical disorders (catatonia due to anothermedical condition) Rationale:As represented in DSM-IV, catatonia wasunder-recognized, particularly in psychiatricdisorders other than schizophrenia and psychoticmood disorders and in other medical disorders. Itwas also apparent that inclusion of catatonia as aspecific condition that can apply more broadly acrossthe manual may help address gaps in the treatmentof catatonia.Copyright 2013. American Psychiatric Association.

Mania and Hypomania(Bipolar and Related Disorders) Inclusionof increased energy/activity as aCriterion A symptom of mania andhypomania Rationale:This will make explicit therequirement of increased energy/activity inorder to diagnose bipolar I or II disorder (whichis not required under DSM-IV) and will improvethe specificity of the diagnosis.Copyright 2013. American Psychiatric Association.

Mania and Hypomaniaepisode” is replaced with a “withmixed features” specifier for manic,hypomanic, and major depressiveepisodes “Mixed Rationale:DSM-IV criteria excluded fromdiagnosis the sizeable population ofindividuals with subthreshold mixed stateswho did not meet full criteria for majordepression and mania, and thus were lesslikely to receive treatment.Copyright 2013. American Psychiatric Association.

Mania and Hypomaniaanxious distress” also added as aspecifier for bipolar (and depressive)disorders “With Rationale:The co-occurrence of anxiety withdepression is one of the most commonly seencomorbidities in clinical populations. Additionof this specifier will allow clinicians to indicatethe presence of anxiety symptoms that are notreflected in the core criteria for depressionand mania but nonetheless may bemeaningful for treatment planning.Copyright 2013. American Psychiatric Association.

Bereavement Exclusion(Depressive Disorders) Eliminated(MDE)from major depressive episode Rationale:In some individuals, major loss –including but not limited to loss of a loved one –can lead to MDE or exacerbate pre-existingdepression. Individuals experiencing bothconditions can benefit from treatment but areexcluded from diagnosis under DSM-IV. Further,the 2-month timeframe required by DSM-IVsuggests an arbitrary time course tobereavement that is inaccurate. Lifting theexclusion alleviates both of these problems.Copyright 2013. American Psychiatric Association.

Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder(DMDD) Newly added to DSM-5 Rationale: This addresses the disturbing increase inpediatric bipolar diagnoses over the past two decades,which is due in large part to the incorrectcharacterization of non-episodic irritability as a hallmarksymptom of mania. DMDD provides a diagnosis forchildren with extreme behavioral dyscontrol butpersistent, rather than episodic, irritability and reducesthe likelihood of such children being inappropriatelyprescribed antipsychotic medication. These criteria donot allow a dual diagnosis with oppositional-defiantdisorder (ODD) or intermittent explosive disorder (IED),but it can be diagnosed with conduct disorder (CD).Children who meet criteria for DMDD and ODD wouldbe diagnosed with DMDD only.Copyright 2013. American Psychiatric Association.

Atleast age 6 Onset by age 10 1 year of symptoms 3 temper outbursts per week Mood between temper outbursts isangry/irritable most of the time

Anxiety Disorders Separationof DSM-IV Anxiety Disorderschapter into four distinct chapters Rationale:Data from neuroscience,neuroimaging, and genetic studies suggestdifferences in the heritability, risk, course, andtreatment response among fear-based anxietydisorders (e.g., phobias); disorders ofobsessions or compulsions (e.g., OCD);trauma-related anxiety disorders (e.g., PTSD);and dissociative disorders. Thus, four anxietyrelated classifications are present in DSM-5,instead of two chapters in DSM-IV.Copyright 2013. American Psychiatric Association.

Panic Attacks Specifier Nowa specifier for any mental disorder Rationale:Panic attacks can predict the onsetseverity and course of mental disorders,including anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder,dep
