DSM5 Changes: an overview
• DSM-IV-TR
– Mental disorder: is a syndrome characterized by clinically significant
disturbance in an individual’s cognition, emotion regulation or behavior that
reflects a dysfunction in the psychological, biological, or developmental
processes underlying mental functioning. Mental disorders are usually
associated with significant distress or disability in social, occupational, or
other important activities. An expectable or culturally approved response to a
common stressor or loss, such as the death of a loved one, is not a mental
disorder.1 Socially deviant behavior (e.g. political, religious, or sexual) and
conflicts that are primarily between individual and society are not mental
disorders unless the deviance or conflicts results from a dysfunction in the
individual, as described above.”
(DSM5, p 20)

14
DSM5 Changes: an overview
• DSM5 Classification System (new)
– Clinical Formulation
• Involves a careful clinical history
• Concise summary of the social, psychological and
biological factors contributing to the mental
disorder(s)
• Not sufficient to check off the symptoms
• Relevant severity and valence of individual criteria
contribution as important
• Current diagnostic categories do not fully capture
the full range of psychopathology possible
– “other specified” and/or unspecified categories
15
DSM5 Changes: an overview
• DSM5 diagnosis system (new)
– Five digit system 123.45 (until 2015)
• Coordinated with ICD codes
• 123: indicate type of disorder
• XXX.4X and XXX.X5 are subtype and severity specifiers to
more accurately record the diagnostic category and
condition.
– Not all dx uses 5 digits, 311.0 Depression NOS
– GAF: Replaced with WHODAS – World Health
Organization Disability Assessment Scale
16
DSM5 Changes: an overview
• DSM5 diagnosis system (new)
– What is ICD?
– International Classification of Disease (WHO)
– ICD uses an alpha-numerical system
– 3-7 characters; DSM will use 6
– All letters except ‘U’ used. First position is letter. Not case-sensitive
– DSM will mostly utilize F (Mental and behavioural disorders)
– Decimal after third character
– Provides more accuracy than DSM coding
– ICD9 codes were limited in capturing clinical data
– ICD10 far more accurate and comprehensive
– Implementation date ICD10: 10.01.2014
• 2015 – ONLY ICD codes in DSM
– The transition to ICD-10 is required for everyone covered
by the Health Insurance Portability Accountability Act
(HIPAA).

–
Diagnosis – formerly Axis I, II & III
Multi-axial system removed
DSM5 utilizes a non-axial documentation of diagnosis
Separate notations for psychosocial and contextual
factors (formerly Axis IV) and Disability (formerly Axis
V = GAF)
– Axis III (related medical diagnosis) has been
combined with former Axis I & II diagnosis in the
listing of diagnoses
– Axis IV issues are addressed by ICD V-codes and
ICD-10 Z codes.
– Axis V GAF scale is replaced by the WHODAS 2.0
score
19
DSM5 Changes: an overview
• DSM5 Classification System (new)
– Elements of a diagnosis – formerly Axis I, II & III
• Diagnostic criteria are “guidelines” for making a diagnosis.
• Diagnostic criteria usage should be informed by clinical
judgment.
• Severity & course specifiers are applied to denote the current
presentation of the individual’s diagnosis.
– Only when full criteria are met, i.e. not in unspecified diagnoses
• Descriptors
– Severity:
 Mild, moderate, severe
– Descriptive features:
 With good insight, in controlled environment
– Course:
 In partial remission, in full remission, recurrent
• Final Diagnosis = clinical interview + text description +
criteria met + clinician judgment
20
DSM5 Changes: an overview
• DSM5 Classification System (new)
– Elements of a diagnosis – formerly Axis I, II & III
• Subtypes
– Mutually exclusive and jointly exhaustive phenomenological
subgroupings in a diagnosis.
– Indicated by the instruction – “Specify whether. . . . “ in the criterion
set.
• Specifiers
– Are not intended to be mutually exclusive nor jointly exhaustive so
more than one may be given.
– Indicated by the instruction “Specify . . . .” or Specify if . . . “ in the
criteria set.
• The fifth digit can sometimes serve this purpose. However
the majority of subtypes and specifiers are codable in OCD 9
or 10 systems and must be indicated after the diagnostic
label.
21
DSM5 Changes: an overview
• DSM5 Classification System (new)
– Elements of a diagnosis – formerly Axis I, II & III
• Subtypes & Specifiers (cont’d)
– Diagnosis is applied to current presentation though past
diagnoses in remission or recovered should be indicated.
– Specifiers indicating course should be listed after the diagnosis.
– Severity specifiers are often provided to guide clinicians in
rating – intensity, frequency, duration, symptom count or other
severity indicators.
– Descriptive features specifiers provided in the criteria set can
provide additional information that can inform treatment
planning.
– NOTE: Not all disorders include specifiers for course, severity,
and/or descriptives.
22
DSM5 Changes: an overview
• DSM5 Classification System (new)
– Elements of a diagnosis – formerly Axis I, II & III
• NOS replaced by “Other Specified” or “Unspecified” pp.15-16
• Other Specified:
– Allows the clinician to present the reason the client presentation does
not meet diagnostic class criteria.
– Format: record the diagnosis name followed by the specific reason, e.g.
“Other specified depressive disorder, depressive episode with
insufficient symptoms”.
• Unspecified:
– The clinician may choose not to indicate the reason the criteria are not
met for a disorder.
– Format: record the diagnosis as for example :unspecified depressive
disorder”.
23
DSM5 Changes: an overview
• DSM5 Classification System (new)
• Elements of a diagnosis – formerly Axis I, II & III
• Principal diagnosis
– The principal diagnosis is the condition which is chiefly responsible
for the client's presentation to treatment and will be the primary
focus of treatment and intervention.
– The principal diagnosis is indicated by listing it first with the
balance of disorders listed in order of focus of attention and
treatment.
– If the principal diagnosis is a mental disorder “due to another
medical condition”, then the medical condition must be listed first.1
– Best practice: the principal diagnosis is followed by the notation
“Principal Diagnosis) or “Reason for Visit”.
– NOTE: In dual-diagnosis or co-occurring treatment, under PA law,
the principal diagnosis MUST be a substance use disorder.
24
DSM5 Changes: an overview
• DSM5 Classification System (new)
• Elements of a diagnosis – formerly Axis I, II & III
– Provisional diagnosis – two uses
• FIRST:
• When there a strong presumption that full criteria will be met but
•
sufficient information currently lacking for a firm diagnosis.
Format: The term “Provisional” follows the diagnostic label, e.g.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (Provisional)
• SECOND
• When the differential diagnosis of a disorder depends exclusively on
•
the duration of the illness.
Format: The term “Provisional” follows the diagnostic label, e.g.
Schizophrenia (Provisional)
25
DSM5 Changes: an overview
• DSM5 Classification System (new)
• Elements of a diagnosis – formerly Axis I, II & III
• Coding & Reporting procedures
• Each disorder is delineated by both a
– Diagnostic or nominal label, and a
– Statistical or numerical code; often used for data collection and billing
purposes (i.e. ICD 9 & 10 coding).
– The diagnostic designation is incomplete unless BOTH designations are
used.
– ICD-10: Adoption in US will occur 10/01/2014
 Parenthetical codes inDSM5 should not be utilized until that time.
 For 2015 and thereafter, only the current ICD codes will be listed
in the DSM.

33
DSM5 Changes: an overview
• DSM5 Classification System (new)
– Critical Caveats for diagnosing:
• There must be “clinically significant disturbance”,
“significant distress or disability” or “dysfunction
in the individual”.
• The disturbance, distress, disability or
dysfunction is not attributable to physiological
effects of a substance (used as prescribed,
abused or used illicitly).
• The disturbance, distress, disability or
dysfunction is not attributable to some other
medical condition.
34
DSM5 Changes: an overview
• DSM5 Classification System (new)
• Developmental & Lifespan organization
– Diagnoses that reflect developmental processes early
in life
– Diagnoses that typically manifest in adolescence
young adulthood
– Diagnoses that usually manifest in adulthood and
later life
35
DSM5 Changes: an overview
• DSM5 Classification System (new)
• Cultural issues
– Disorders are defined in relation to cultural social and familial norms.
– Experience and expression of symptoms, signs and behaviors are
viewed through the interpretative framework of culture.
– The decision that a given behavior is abnormal requires intervention
and/or treatment is dependent upon cultural norms.
–
• DSM5 Cultural Concepts
– Cultural syndrome: a cluster of group of symptoms not viewed by the
native culture as an illness but recognized by external observers.
– Cultural idiom of distress: a linguistic term, phrase or way of talking
about distress in a culture independent of an illness or disorder.
– Cultural explanation of perceived cause: a label, attribution of feature
that provides a culturally conceived cause for an illness.
36
DSM5 Changes: an overview
• DSM5 Classification System (new)
• Gender differences
– Sex and gender differences are applicable to several
disorders in the DSM5
– Sex differences: variations of individual’s reproductive
organs and XX/XY chromosomal distribution
– Gender differences: variations resulting from both an
individual's biological sex and self-representation of
one’s perceived gender
– Gender influences illness determines risk, moderates
risk of development and likelihood of particular
symptoms being experienced.

DSM5 Changes: an overview
• DSM5 Classification System (new)
– Cautionary Statement for Forensic Use of DSM5
• DSM5 is a reference tool for courts in determining
forensic consequences of mental disorders.
• There is an imperfect fit between the questions of
concern for the law and clinical diagnosis.
• Diagnosis does not imply a specific level of
impairment or disability.
• Diagnosis does not carry any implication regarding
culpability, causes of behavior, behavioral control
(or lack of) or aspects of control at a particular
time (e.g. at commission of an alleged crime).
