Unbound Medicine Launches DSM-5-TR® Differential Diagnosis Decision-Support App

Ongoing Collaboration Supports Enhanced Diagnostic Precision in Psychiatry

Charlottesville, VA, June 19, 2024 — Unbound Medicine, a pioneer in knowledge management solutions for healthcare announces the launch of a groundbreaking psychiatric diagnosis app for health professionals. This innovative mobile application integrates the authoritative DSM-5-TR® Handbook of Differential Diagnosis with the advanced capabilities of the Unbound™ platform, marking a significant advancement in the tools available for psychiatric diagnosis.

Derived from the DSM-5-TR® Handbook of Differential Diagnosis and Supplements to DSM-5-TR® Handbook of Differential Diagnosis from the American Psychiatric Association (APA), the app enhances the acclaimed features of its predecessor by incorporating updated coding and more interactive decision trees. These trees actively guide users from the initial presentation of psychiatric symptoms through a detailed exploration of diagnostic possibilities, leading to accurate psychiatric diagnoses. Notably, the app functions entirely offline, ensuring it is always accessible and functional at the point of care on any mobile device.

Michael B. First, MD, author of the DSM-5-TR® Handbook of Differential Diagnosis and editor of The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition, Text Revision (DSM-5-TR) , highlights the app’s enhancements: "The latest DSM updates in our app ensure that healthcare professionals have access to the most advanced resources for diagnostic accuracy. The interactive decision trees, a collaborative development with Unbound Medicine, offer crucial guidance for both seasoned clinicians and trainees navigating challenging cases."

The DSM-5-TR Differential Diagnosis app merges Unbound’s advanced technology with APA’s clinical insights to deliver a unique, personalized learning journey. Each interaction with the app’s decision trees offers a tailored experience, enhancing diagnostic accuracy and supporting clinician development.

“We are thrilled to extend our collaboration with the APA, enhancing the precision and efficiency of psychiatric diagnosis," said Bill Detmer, MD, CEO of Unbound Medicine. “By placing diagnostic support directly in the pockets of clinicians, we ensure they have access to crucial information whenever and wherever needed—thereby enhancing patient care.”

Experience the interactive decision trees firsthand by downloading the DSM-5-TR® Differential Diagnosis app from the Apple® App Store or Google Play® Store.
