The must-have companion to the official DSM-5-TR. Look up diagnostic criteria, ICD-10-CM codes, and mental health classifications in seconds. Designed for clinicians, students, and exam prep, including NCLEX, USMLE, and EPPP. This desk reference is designed to work alongside the full DSM-5-TR by APA. While the official manual provides comprehensive diagnostic details, it is not built for quick lookups. This guide gives you fast access to the criteria you need so you can focus on diagnosis, clinical decisions, or exam preparation without flipping through dense pages. What's Inside: Built for Professionals and Students: Independently Reviewed for Accuracy: This reference guide has been reviewed by psychiatrists and mental health professionals with extensive expertise in DSM-5-TR criteria to ensure clarity, precision, and clinical reliability. Whether you are a mental health professional, student, or medical coder, this DSM-5-TR Desk Reference helps you work smarter, diagnose faster, and study more efficiently. A strong addition to any clinical or academic reference library.

Review: Helpful and to the point. - As an undergrad psych student, It's a helpful little book! It essentially has everything the full DSM-5 has but skips all the word foreplay and gets right to the point. Review: Just the DSM-5 tool I was looking for - I searched for a DSM-5 quick reference tool that I could use throughout my workday. This DSM-5 book by Medical Creations was just what I was looking for. Each psychiatric condition is listed in an easy-to-find and easy-to-read format. Diagnostic criteria are summarized in a bulleted format. I found the listed corresponding ICD-10 code especially useful when charting patient notes. I found the final chapter especially interesting, as I was unfamiliar with many of the covered conditions. Chapter 20 is titled "Cultural Diagnoses and Conditions for Further Study, Interviewing". This chapter includes disorders such as caffeine use disorder and internet gaming disorder. The book is lightweight and nicely fits into a white coat pocket. It is a great resource for both students who are just learning about psychiatric conditions and for experienced healthcare providers. I highly recommend!

Nice quick reference to have
I have the full blown one I keep in my home office, and have another position where I don’t diagnose often, but keep this guy as a quick reference. My second position is working with mostly people who aren’t MH professionals, and this is just helpful for a general overview/fast refresher
