    Déduire et poser un diagnostic exact requiert la capacité à obtenir de l’information de la part du patient, identifier les symptômes, reconnaître leurs modalités et déterminer les causes possibles. DSM-5 Diagnostics différentiels permet aux cliniciens et aux étudiants dans le champ de la santé mentale d’améliorer leurs compétences dans la formulation d’un diagnostic différentiel complet grâce à une variété d’approches incluant : - une démarche diagnostique en 6 étapes qui explore les questions diagnostiques devant être envisagées chez tous les patients; - 29 arbres décisionnels pyramidaux conçus à partir du symptôme principal ou d’une étiologie possible; - 66 tableaux de diagnostic différentiel à utiliser lorsqu’un diagnostic a été ébauché afin de s’assurer que toutes les alternatives diagnostiques pertinentes ont été prises en considération; - un rappel de la classification du DSM-5 afin de faciliter le codage et fournir une vue générale de l’ensemble des diagnostics du DSM-5 à considérer lors de la formulation d’un diagnostic différentiel; - les index alphabétiques des arbres décisionnels et des tableaux de diagnostic différentiel. Dans le respect de la complexité de la personnalité humaine et de l’utilité structurelle de la classification du DSM-5, ces outils facilitent l’élaboration d’un diagnostic différentiel en psychiatrie le plus exhaustif possible.
