| Summary: | In psychosomatic medicine,many medical and psychiatric diagnostic models proposed to detect psychological
factors related to diseases.In this area,the most commonly used traditional classification system,Diagnostic
and Statistical Manual of Psychiatric Disorders (DSM),has
failed to distinguish somatic symptom clusters,subtype
medical disorders,predict the burden of somatic syndromes,identify risk factors and to predict treatment
outcomes.DCPR hasbeen developed to fill gaps in these
areas and to separate large psychosurgical syndrome
clusters at various clinics with the help of applicable
tools.,DCPR,created by a group of international
researchers in 1995,diagnostic guide that evaluates the
existence of one or more of the 12 psychosomatic syndromes of 58 items scored in the form of a yes/no
response.In the literature,possible to find many different
studies comparing the effects of diagnosis rates of DCPR
and DSM-IV system on subclinical syndrome
clusters,functioning,quality of life.The common results
of the studies indicate that many psychological dimensions and abnormal disease behaviors that can not be
diagnosed in the DSM-IV can be detected with the DCPR.
In the new DSM-5, although there are significant
changes in the criteria under the heading 'Somatic
Symptoms and Related Disorders', many psychosomatic
symptoms are not included. In addition,it offers an
approach that focuses on categorization of
diseases,rather than the approach that aims at influen
cing the psychological factors on diseases.In clinical
practice,we believe that the use of DCPR in combination
with traditional classification systems such as DSM to
determine the extent to which patients respond to the
current disease process and physical symptom clusters
and to determine many effective psychosocial dimensions.The aim of this article is recognize and distinguish
the DCPR psychological symptom clusters, which have
been neglected by traditional systems. |
