Inclusion terms

Applicable to

  • Mild neurocognitive impairment due to a known physiological condition

Includes (from F06)

  • disorders of psychological development
  • mental disorders due to endocrine disorder
  • mental disorders due to exogenous hormone
  • mental disorders due to exogenous toxic substance
  • mental disorders due to primary cerebral disease
  • mental disorders due to somatic illness

  • Note: This block comprises a range of mental disorders grouped together on the basis of their having in common a demonstrable etiology in cerebral disease, brain injury, or other insult leading to cerebral dysfunction. The dysfunction may be primary, as in diseases, injuries, and insults that affect the brain directly and selectively; or secondary, as in systemic diseases and disorders that attack the brain only as one of the multiple organs or systems of the body that are involved.
