Síntomas del estado de ánimo depresivo en los trastornos psicóticos primarios

Definition

This descriptor may be used together with a diagnosis from the grouping of Schizophrenia and other primary psychotic disorders to indicate that depressive symptoms are a prominent part of the current clinical presentation. The descriptor refers only to depressive mood symptoms, that is, depressed mood as reported by the individual (feeling down, sad) or manifested as signs (e.g. tearful, downtrodden 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. [No translation available]
