Diagnosis of adjustment disorder of the DSM
classification system is one of the categories that
hasn't clear and specific symptom profile. Adjustment
disorder meets the criteria of being a genera psychiatric disorder such as feelings of anxiety, experiencing
social-environmental strains and sometimes
shovving behavioural disturbances. İn the
meantime, it's etiological factors are not clear enough
and the clinical characteristics are not defined
clearly so it is seen as a "transitional" diagnostic
category. But the results of the studies support the
identifiable and predictive validity of this diagnosis.
Adjustment disorder as a class of diagnosis seems
to be a good reseacrh area and could be used frequently
especially in consultation-liason psychiatry
and in crisis.

Anahtar Kelimeler

Adjustment disorder, crisis, consultation-liason psychiatry

UYUM BOZUKLUĞU

Öz

DSM sınıflandırma sisteminin Uyum Bozukluğu
tanısı, açık ve özgül bir belirti profili olmayan birkaç
kümesinden biridir. Uyum Bozukluğu, ruhsal sıkıntı,
sosyal-çevresel zorlanmalar yaşama ve bazen
davranışsal bozuklukların varlığı gibi, psikiyatrik bir
bozukluk olmanın çok genel koşullarını karşılamaktadır.
Klinik özellikleri henüz tam geliştirilmediği ve
altta yatan etiyolojik faktörleri açık olmadığı için
halen sıra dışı ve "transitional" bir tanı kategorisi
olarak görülmektedir. Ancak yapılan çalışmalar
uyum bozukluğu tanısının tanımsal ve prediktif geçerliliğini
desteklemektedir. Uyum bozukluğu özellikle
konsültasyon-liyezon psikiyatrisi ve psikiyatrik
kriz alanları için iyi bir araştırma alanı ve sıklıkla
kullanılabilecek bir tanı sınıfı gibi görünmektedir.

Anahtar Kelimeler

Uyum Bozukluğu, kriz, konsültasyon-liyezon psikiyatrisi
