Xalatan Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 I find the term disorder slightly confusing as per dsm and would appreciate someone giving clear medically accurate definitions. Disease: a medical condition with clear cut aetiology, pathology, treatment response and prognosis. Syndrome: a set of clinical signs and symptoms. No implications of aetiology. Disorder: a syndrome that causes present distress or disability, or increases the risk of suffering death, pain, loss of freedom. Is this accurate?
