Definition
(DSM-IV-TR)- “the essential feature of the dissociative disorders is a disruption in the usually integrated functions of consciousness, memory, identity, or perception of the environment. The disturbance may be sudden or gradual, transient or chronic.”

(ICD-10) classifies the dissociative disorders among the neurotic, stress-related, and somatoform disorders. The ICD-10 explicitly states that the term hysteria should be avoided because of its lack of precision.

ICD 10
dissociative amnesia, dissociative fugue, dissociative stupor, trance and possession disorder, and dissociative disorders of movement and sensation (roughly equivalent to the DSM-IV-TR conversion disorder diagnosis). The latter includes dissociative motor disorders, dissociative convulsions, and dissociative anesthesia and sensory loss. Ganser syndrome and multiple personality disorder are classified under other dissociative disorders. Depersonalization disorder is classified separately.

Terminology
Conversions applies to somatic symptoms and dissociative applies to psychological symptoms.
![Page 7: Dissociative Disorders Maha S Younis. Definition (DSM-IV-TR)- “the essential feature of the dissociative disorders is a disruption in the usually integrated](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697c01e1a28abf838cd0c30/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Several authors, most recently E.A. Holmes and R.J. Brown, have suggested a heuristic dichotomy between
dissociative detachment (e.g., depersonalization) and dissociative compartmentalization (e.g., amnesia and dissociative identity disorder self-states),
each with their own empirically or hypothesized, underlying neurobiological and neurocognitive correlates.

Conscious vs Unconscious
Model proposed by Spence invokes a consciousness that acts upon the body and the world as opposed to the psychodynamic model (conversion) which invokes an unconscious mechanism.

Clinical features
Conversion disorder- motor symptoms Paralysis, functional weakness, gait
disturbance, fits resembling epilepsy, and abnormal movements.
Sensory symptoms – sensory loss,visual loss

Disability and prognosis
Often poor. Short history and young age is good
prognosis.

Management
No/ very few RCT Cochrane review –all studies were of poor
methodological quality.

Management
Exclude organic conditions. To explain the there is no underlying serious
organic disorder. Explanation of symptoms that is
comprehensible to the patient. Better to use the word functional rather than
psychological.

Summary.
Lot of debate regarding definition, classification.
Course and prognosis can frequently be bad. Liaison with multiple service providers may
be need. Studies not much about effectiveness of
interventions. Generates of interest because of inter
disciplinary nature of the disorder.
