The DSM-V text revision (DSM-V-TRA) is the first published revision of DSM-V since its original publication in 2013. In contrast to the prior text revision (DSM-IV-TR), in which the updates were confined almost exclusively to the text, there are several significant changes and improvements that are of interest to practicing clinicians, including the addition of a new diagnosis (prolonged grief disorder) and symptom codes for reporting suicidal and non-suicidal self-injurious behavior, modifications of the diagnostic criteria for over 70 disorders. This presentation will provide an overview of the most clinically important changes.
