Two key DSM-5 draft proposal documents (Somatic Symptom Disorders)
Post #20 Shortlink: http://wp.me/pKrrB-zN
On 10 February, I posted information on the DSM-5 Somatic Symptom Disorders Work Group’s proposal to rename DSM-IV category “Somatoform Disorders” to “Somatic Symptoms Disorders”.
I included information on the proposed new classification:
Complex Somatic Symptom Disorder (CSSD)
and proposals for combining Somatoform Disorders, Psychological Factors Affecting Medical Condition (PFAMC), and Factitious Disorders under a common rubric entitled Somatic Symptom Disorders.
Links and further information on this Dx Revision Watch page: DSM-5 drafts where draft proposals and revisions and are set out for two examples:
Example [1] Complex Somatic Symptom Disorder [Proposed new classification]
and
Example [2] 316 Psychological Factors Affecting Medical Condition [Proposed should be revised]
Two key PDF documents are associated with these proposals:
PDF Somatic Symptom Disorders Introduction DRAFT 1/29/10 DRAFT January 29, 2010
PDF Justification of Criteria – Somatic Symptoms DRAFT 1/29/10 DRAFT January 29, 2010
