Neurocognitive Disorders 

 

Please find below a list of disorders that are currently proposed for the diagnostic category, Neurocognitive Disorders. This category contains diagnoses that were listed in DSM-IV under the chapter of Delirium, Dementia, Amnestic, and Other Cognitive Disorders. The Neurocognitive Disorders Work Group has been responsible for addressing these disorders. Among the Work Group’s proposals is the recommendation that the category be divided into three broad syndromes: Delirium, Major Neurocognitive Disorder, and Mild Neurocognitive Disorder.
