3. the USA will skip ICD-10 and go straight to ICD-11 (asperger syndrome is probably still going to be in there!)


By the looks of it, what's currently known as AS in the ICD-10 won't be included in the ICD-11 and also, the disorder will not be referred to as AS anymore.

look at the image… it is in there.

Oh, right, haha, that's funny. I didn't really look at the pic at all cos I'd already read the DSM V criteria prior. But thanks for telling me.

It was from the closed caption test in the video. The translation was kind of screwed up so eye gaze because eye gays and early intervention became urine intervention, just as two examples. The cc was pretty bad on this video, but funny in some places.

Wow, lol that makes me want to watch the video now!

I also found of note:
-Along with noting severity they want people to note the clinical course (were their regressions, did they pass as a child, etc), any known etiological factors, comorbids (including food intolerance), any any large strengths and weaknesses.

So I'd call myself Autism Spectrum Disorder - passive type, severity class 2 for both social and RRBs, with severe sensory processing disorder, migraines, and a high IQ.

-When it comes to Asperger's being another thing that can be mentioned, I found it worth note that they're working hard off the DSM-IV criteria for that.

-They're talking about adding an "in remission" tag for many of the neurodevelopmental disorders including autism. If someone isn't needing active help and wouldn't be diagnosable and would have "lost their diagnosis" it would now be in remission instead, and if it comes back, then they still have the diagnosis and they don't need to be rediagnosed. I am very supportive of this.

...there was another one or two but I went off and did other things and came back and had forgotten what they were.
