Title: Bridging the gap between psychiatry and primary care. The DSM-IV-PC. Author: Pincus HA, Vettorello NE, McQueen LE, First M, Wise TN, Zarin D, Davis WW. Journal: Psychosomatics; 1995; 36(4):328-35. PubMed ID: 7652135. Abstract: To facilitate recognition of psychiatric and addictive disorders within primary care settings, the development of a primary care manual to diagnose mental disorders is described. The manual, DSM-IV-PC, is compatible with the full DSM-IV and was developed by both psychiatrists and primary care physicians. Symptom-based clinical algorithms are described to demonstrate the format of the manual, which the authors hope will promote educational, clinical, and research collaboration between psychiatrists and primary care physicians.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
