Resumo(s)
The concept of reactive or psychogenic
psychosis through most of the 20th century
has been widely used in the Scandinavian
countries for a major group of the so-called
functional psychoses, separate from manicdepressive
psychosis and schizophrenia.
Psychogenic psychoses are etiologically
defined as psychoses apparently caused by
a mental trauma in predisposed individuals.
The traumatic stress determines the
content and the course of the psychotic
reaction, which tend to remit in days to weeks.
Since the introduction of ICD-10, the
reactive psychoses have been reallocated
under various diagnostic categories, mainly
as acute and transient psychotic disorders
with associated acute stress F23.x1, which,
however, seems to be sparsely used.
