Encopresis - ANS ✓repeated passage of feces into inappropriate places (e.g.
clothing or floor) whether involuntary or intentional. At least one such event a
month for at least 3 months. Chronological age is at least 4 yo.
Enuresis - ANS ✓repeated voiding of urine into bed or clothes (whether
involuntary or intentional). Behaviour manifested by either a frequency of twice
a week for at least 3 consecutive months or the presence of clinically significant
distress or impairment in social, academic (occupational), or other important
areas of functioning. Chronological age is at least 5 yo.
Separation Anxiety Disorder - ANS ✓Developmentally inappropriate and
excessive anxiety concerning separation from home or attachment figures, as
evidenced by at least 3 of the following :recurrent distress when separated from
attachment figure, worry that harm will befall attachment figure, refuses to go to
school or elsewhere if separated from figure, unwilling to stay alone, unwilling to
sleep alone, recurrent separation dreams, somatic complaints when situation
looms. Duration of disturbance is at least 4 weeks.
Selective Mutism - ANS ✓consistent failure to speak in specific social situations
(in which there is an expectation for speaking, e.g. at school) despite speaking in
other situations; it is not due to a lack of knowledge or comfort with the spoken
language; disturbance interferes with educational or occupational achievement
or with social communication; duration of the disturbance is at least 1 month
Reactive Attachment Disorder - ANS ✓Markedly disturbed and
developmentally inappropriate social relatedness in most contexts that begins
before age 5 and is associated with grossly pathological care. Two types of
presentations- Inhibited type (pattern of excessively inhibited, hypervigilant, or

highly ambivalent responses) and Disinhibited type (indiscriminate sociability or
lack of selectivity in the choice of attachment figures).
Stereotypic Movement Disorder - ANS ✓repetitive seemingly driven, and non-
functional motor behaviour (e.g. hand shaking or waving, body rocking, head
banging, mouthing of objects, self biting, hitting own body) which interferes with
normal activities or results in self-inflicted bodily injury. Behaviour persists for 4
weeks or longer.
Delirium Due to a General Medical Condition - ANS ✓A. Disturbance of
consciousness (i.e., reduced clarity of awareness of the environment)
with reduced ability to focus, sustain, or shift attention.
B. A change in cognition (such as memory deficit, disorientation, language
disturbance) or the development of a perceptual disturbance that is not better
accounted for by a pre-existing, established, or evolving dementia.
e. The disturbance develops over a short period of time (usually hours to days)
and tends to fluctuate during the course of the day.
D. There is evidence from the history, physical examination, or laboratory
findings that the disturbance is caused by the direct physiological consequences
of a general medical
condition.
Substance-Induced Delirium - ANS ✓A. Disturbance of consciousness (i.e.,
reduced clarity of awareness of the environment) with reduced ability to focus,
sustain, or shift attention.
B. A change in cognition (such as memory deficit, disorientation, language
disturbance) or the development of a perceptual disturbance that is not better
accounted for by
a pre-existing, established, or evolving dementia.
C. The disturbance develops over a short period of time (usually hours to days)
and tends to fluctuate during the course of the day.
D. There is evidence from the history, physical examination, or laboratory
findings of either (1) the symptoms in Criteria A and B developed during
Substance Intoxication or (2) medication use is etiologically related to the
disturbance·

Substance Withdrawal Delirium - ANS ✓A. Disturbance of consciousness, with
reduced ability to focus, sustain, or shift attention
B. Change in cognition or development of perceptual disturbance not better
accounted for by dementia
C. Develops over a short period of time (hours-days), tends to fluctuate over the
course of the day
D. Disturbance developed during, or shortly after, a withdrawal syndrome
Delirium Due to Multiple Etiologies - ANS ✓A. Disturbance of consciousness
(i.e., reduced clarity of awareness of the environment) with reduced ability to
focus, sustain, or shift attention.
B. A change in cognition (such as memory deficit, disorientation, language
disturbance) or the development of a perceptual disturbance that is not better
accounted for by
a pre-existing, established, or evolving dementia.
C. The disturbance develops over a short period of time (usually hours to days)
and tends to fluctuate during the course of the day.
D. There is evidence from the history, physical examination, or laboratory
findings that the delirium has more than one etiology (e.g. ., more than one
etiological general
medical condition, a general medical condition plus Substance Intoxication or
medication side effect).
Delirium Not Otherwise Specified - ANS ✓Delirium that does not meet criteria
for any specific types of delirium such as delirium which is suspected to be due to
a general medical condition or substance use but for which there is insufficient
evidence to establish etiology or dilirium due to causes not listed in this section
(sensory deprivation)
Dementia [differentiated based on etiology] - ANS ✓Disorders characterized
by the development of multiple cognitive deficits that include memory
impairment and at least one of the following cognitive disturbances (aphasia,
apraxia, agnosia, or disturbance in executive functioning) that are due to the
direct physiological effects of either a general medical condition, substance

abuse, or to multiple etiologies. Deficits must be sufficiently severe to cause
impairment in occupational or social functioning and must represent a decline
from a previously higher level of functioning.
Amnestic Disorder due to General Medical Condition - ANS ✓Development of
memory impairment as manifested by impairment in the ability to learn new
information or the inability to recall previously learned information. Disturbance
causes significant impairment in social or occupational functioning and
represents a decline from a previous level of functioning. Must have evidence
that disturbance is the effect of a general medical condition.
Transient: impairment lasts for 1 month or less
Chronic: impairment lasts for more than one month
Substance Induced Persisting Amnestic Disorder - ANS ✓Development of
memory impairment as manifested by impairment in the ability to learn new
information or the inability to recall previously learned information. Disturbance
causes significant impairment in social or occupational functioning and
represents a decline from a previous level of functioning. Disturbance persists
beyond the usual duration of substance intoxication or withdrawal. Evidence that
the disturbance is etiologically related to the persisting effects of substance use
(drug abuse, a medication)
Substance Dependence - ANS ✓Maladaptive pattern of substance use as
manifested by 3 or more of the following at any time in the same 12 month
period (tolerance, withdrawal, substance taken in larger amounts or over longer
period than intended, persistent desire or unsuccessful attempts to cut down or
control the use, a great deal of time is spent in activities necessary to obtain/use/
recover from the effects of use, important social/occupational/recreational
activities given up or reduced because of use, use continued despite knowledge
of having a persistent or recurrent physical or psychological problem that is
