ICD-11 code : 6A20;
Preferred Label : Schizophrenia;
ICD-11 definition : Schizophrenia is characterized by disturbances in multiple mental modalities, including
thinking (e.g., delusions, disorganization in the form of thought), perception (e.g.,
hallucinations), self-experience (e.g., the experience that one's feelings, impulses,
thoughts, or behaviour are under the control of an external force), cognition (e.g.,
impaired attention, verbal memory, and social cognition), volition (e.g., loss of
motivation), affect (e.g., blunted emotional expression), and behaviour (e.g.,behaviour
that appears bizarre or purposeless, unpredictable or inappropriate emotional responses
that interfere with the organization of behaviour). Psychomotor disturbances, including
catatonia, may be present. Persistent delusions, persistent hallucinations, thought
disorder, and experiences of influence, passivity, or control are considered core
symptoms. Symptoms must have persisted for at least one month in order for a diagnosis
of schizophrenia to be assigned. The symptoms are not a manifestation of another health
condition (e.g., a brain tumour) and are not due to the effect of a substance or medication
on the central nervous system (e.g., corticosteroids), including withdrawal (e.g.,
alcohol withdrawal).;
