6A25.2 Depressive mood symptoms in primary psychotic disorders

International Classification of Diseases for Mortality and Morbidity Statistics, 11th Revision, v2024-01

Depressive mood symptoms in primary psychotic disorders refer to depressed mood as reported by the individual (feeling down, sad) or manifested as a sign (e.g. tearful, defeated appearance). If only non-mood symptoms of a depressive episode are present (e.g., anhedonia, psychomotor slowing), this descriptor should not be used. This descriptor may be used whether or not depressive symptoms meet the diagnostic requirements of a separately diagnosed Depressive disorder. The rating should be made based on the severity of depressive mood symptoms during the past week.
