Unlike DSM-IV, in DSM-V, dissociative symptoms are no longer a requirement for the diagnosis of ASD. ASD was moved from the anxiety disorders bucket to a newly created bucket (i.e., trauma and stressor-related disorders) to distinguish further its characteristics. With the introduction of the DSM-5 in 2013, multiple changes were made to the diagnostic criteria. DSM-5 no longer requires dissociative symptoms to diagnose ASD while still including it as a diagnostic criterion. ASD was defined in an attempt to describe ASRs that were missed or treated as adjustment disorders.
In contrast, ASRs that continue for a more extended period than four weeks can meet the criteria for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Acute stress disorder (ASD) was introduced into DSMIV to describe acute stress reactions (ASRs) that occur in the initial month after exposure to a traumatic event and before the possibility of diagnosing posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and to identify trauma survivors in the acute phase who are high risk for PTSD.
Second, it was hoped to predict post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) development in acute trauma patients to initiate early interventions.ĪSD explains acute stress reactions (ASRs) that occur in no less than three days and no more than four weeks. The reasoning for adding this diagnosis was to provide healthcare services to patients with acute traumas but who were not covered by insurance due to the condition being in its early stage.

Acute stress disorder (ASD) was first outlined in 1994 at the diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders, fourth edition (DSM-IV) as a new diagnosis.
