[Schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders in ICD-11 and DSM-5: evolution of the concepts and current status].

The concepts of schizophrenia and other primary psychotic disorders have been changed a lot since their beginnings more than century ago due to many factors such as the dominance of a certain hypothesis during a particular period of time, the development of new clinical research and specific treatments as well as different understanding of the boundaries between mental disorders. It was appeared the diagnosis of schizophrenia spectrum disorders which still based only on clinical symptoms. Whether psychotic disorders can be better represented dimensionally or categorically remains a challenging question. Regarding schizophrenia and other primary psychotic disorders, there are some important changes in DSM-5 and ICD-11 concerning the use of quantitative assessment of psychopathological domains, course of psychosis and remission as well as giving more attention to cognitive issues. The main differences between these classifications are the structure of corresponding sections and different criteria of some disorders. Before the ICD-11 implementation in 2022 into clinical practice, it is highly recommended to conduct a set of trainings for clinicians along with the comments to Diagnostic guidelines for Schizophrenia and other primary psychotic disorders.
