The ICD-11 was approved by the World Health Assembly in May 2019 and took effect as the basis for health reporting by WHO Member states in 2022. The ICD-11 will be implemented in clinical systems around the world over the next few years. The new ICD-11 Clinical Descriptions and Diagnostic Requirements (CDDR) for ICD-11 Mental, Behavioural or Neurodevelopmental Disorders, developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) Department of Mental Health and Substance Use, is built on more than three decades of advances in research and practice since the publication of the ICD-10. The purpose of the ICD-11 CDDR is to guide mental health professionals in implementing the classification in clinical settings.
