Where this comes from

Abstract

An important change in ICD-11 is the lifespan approach, whereby previous child and adolescent disorders have been amalgamated with adult disorders. There have been changes in the definition/descriptions of neurodevelopmental and disruptive disorders, some of which may have an impact on service development.
