  • Brief Psychotic Disorder Diagnostic Criteria 298.8 (F23)
    Brief Psychotic Disorder Diagnostic Criteria 298.8 (F23) A. Presence of one (or more) of the following symptoms. At least one of these must be (1), (2), or (3): 1. Delusions. 2. Hallucinations. 3. Disorganized speech (e.g., frequent derailment or incoherence). 4. Grossly disorganized or catatonic behavior. Note: Do not include a symptom if it is a culturally sanctioned response. B. Duration of an episode of the disturbance is at least 1 day but less than 1 month, with eventual full return to premorbid level of functioning. C. The disturbance is not better explained by major depressive or bipolar disorder with psychotic features or another psychotic disorder such as schizophrenia or catatonia, and is not attributable to the physiological effects of a substance (e.g., a drug of abuse, a medication) or another medical condition. Specify if: With marked stressor(s) (brief reactive psychosis): If symptoms occur in response to events that, singly or together, would be markedly stressful to almost anyone in similar circumstances in the individual’s culture. Without marited stressor(s): If symptoms do not occur in response to events that, singly or together, would be markedly stressful to almost anyone in similar circumstances in the individual’s culture. With postpartum onset: If onset is during pregnancy or within 4 weeks postpartum. Specify if: With catatonia (refer to the criteria for catatonia associated with another mental disorder, pp. 119-120, for definition) Coding note: Use additional code 293.89 (F06.1) catatonia associated with brief psychotic disorder to indicate the presence of the comorbid catatonia. Specify current severity: Severity is rated by a quantitative assessment of the primary symptoms of psychosis, including delusions, hallucinations, disorganized speech, abnormal psychomotor behavior, and negative symptoms.

  • Adjustment Disorder
    ADJUSTMENT DISORDER Introduction Recent Changes from the DSM-IV to the DSM-5 Prevalence Causes and Risk Factors Classifications Diagnosis Comorbidity Treatment Psychotherapy Pharmacological Treatment Cultural Considerations Overview for Families Introduction An adjustment disorder is an unhealthy behavioral response to a stressful event or circumstance (Medical Center of Central Georgia, 2002). Youth who experience distress in excess of what is an expected response may experience significant impairment in normal daily functioning and activities (Institute for Health, Health Care Policy and Aging Research, 2002). Adjustment disorders in youth are created by factors similar to those in adults. Factors that may contribute to the development of adjustment disorders include the nature of the stressor and the vulnerabilities of the child, as well as other intrinsic and extrinsic factors (Benton & Lynch, 2009). In order to be diagnosed as an adjustment disorder, the child’s reaction must occur within three months of the identified event (Medical Center of Central Georgia, 2002). Typically, the symptoms do not last more than six months, and the majority of children quickly return to normal functioning (United Behavioral Health, 2002). Adjustment disorders differ from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in that PTSD usually occurs in reaction to a life-threatening event and may last longer (Access Med Health Library, 2002). Adjustment disorders may be difficult to distinguish from major depressive disorder (Casey & Doherty, 2012). Unless otherwise cited, the following information is attributed to the University of Chicago Comer Children’s Hospital (2005). In clinical samples of children and adolescents, males and females are equally likely to be diagnosed with an adjustment disorder (American Psychiatric Association [APA], 2000).

  • Appropriate Use of Antipsychotics in Dementia Is Also an Issue in the Community, in Supportive Living Facilities and in Acute Care
    1 Antipsychotics are a class of medications developed in the 1950’s to treat the symptoms of schizophrenia, enabling people with this illness to live in the community Typical antipsychotics such as Haldol and Largactil came to be used for some of the symptoms and behaviours of dementia. Concern developed regarding side-effects such as tardive dyskinesia (a movement disorder that can be permanent). When atypical antipsychotics were introduced in the 1990’s, it was believed they had fewer side-effects. Over time, we learned they don’t have fewer side-effects - just different side-effect profiles. As the use of antipsychotics grows, so do reports of harm. Aripiprazole is the newest atypical antipsychotic and is considerably more expensive than the generic second-generation atypical antipsychotics. Utilization and popularity of this newest antipsychotic is growing, unfortunately without outcome related evidence. It’s expected that reports of harm will also accumulate with aripiprazole. There is a recent tendency to revert back to Haldol and other typical antipsychotics, which are NOT safer, in light of a growing number of Health Canada alerts regarding atypical antipsychotics. 2 It’s important to emphasize this is not an initiative to eliminate antipsychotics but to use antipsychotics appropriately. People with chronic mental health conditions such as schizophrenia or Huntington’s Chorea likely require long term use, though the dosage may need to be reassessed as they age. Antipsychotics may be used as adjunctive treatment in refractory depression, and for other chronic mental health conditions. Antipsychotics may also be helpful in distressing psychosis - Dementia itself may cause a distressing psychosis –in this case, antipsychotics are a temporary treatment, as needs change over time with disease progression.
