Overview
Inhalant use disorder is a psychiatric disease, characterized by the use of inhalant drug substances, which lead to psychological and physical negative change. This is an addition that takes at least 12 months to be characterized in the DSM V Criteria. Among the populations in the United States, the prevalence is higher in Native Americans and youths between 12-17 years old.[1]
Differential Diagnosis
- Intentional inhalant use, without meeting criteria for inhalant use disorder
- Unintentional inhalant exposure from industrial or accidents
- Inhalant intoxication, without meeting criteria for inhalant use disorder
- Use of sedating substances
- Disorders impairing central or peripheral nervous system function
- Disorders of other organ systems[1]
Epidemiology and Demographics
The prevalence of inhalant use disorder is 200 to 4,000 per 100,000 (0.02 .4%) of the overall population.[1]
Risk factors
- Conduct disorder
- Antisocial personality disorder
- Environmental gases inhalation
- Youths with behavioral dishinibition[1]
Natural History, Complications and Prognosis
Poor prognosis factors include:
- Working with industrial gas exposure
- Behavioral inhibition
- Antisocial personality disorder[1]
Diagnosis Criteria
DSM-V Diagnostic Criteria for Inhalant Use Disorder[1]
“ |
A. A problematic pattern of use of a hydrocarbon-based inhalant substance leading to clinically significant impairment or distress, as manifested by at least two of the following, occurring within a 12-month period:
a. A need for markedly increased amounts of the inhalant substance to achieve intoxication or desired effect. OR b. A markedly diminished effect with continued use of the same amount of the inhalant substance. Specify the particular inhalant: When possible, the particular substance involved should be named (e.g., “solvent use disorder'’). Specify if: In early remission: After full criteria for inhalant use disorder were previously met, none of the criteria for inhalant use disorder have been met for at least 3 months but for less than 12 months (with the exception that Criterion A4, “Craving, or a strong desire or urge to use the inhalant substance,” may be met). OR In sustained remission: After full criteria for inhalant use disorder were previously met, none of the criteria for inhalant use disorder have been met at any time during a period of 12 months or longer (with the exception that Criterion A4, “Craving, or a strong desire or urge to use the inhalant substance,” may be met). Specify if: In a controlled environment: This additional specifier is used if the individual is in an environment where access to inhalant substances is restricted. Coding based on current severity: Note for ICD-10-CM codes: If an inhalant intoxication or another inhalant-induced mental disorder is also present, do not use the codes below for inhalant use disorder. Instead, the comorbid inhalant use disorder is indicated in the 4th character of the inhalant-induced disorder code (see the coding note for inhalant intoxication or a specific inhalant-induced mental disorder). For example, if there is comorbid inhalant-induced depressive disorder and inhalant use disorder, only the inhalant-induced depressive disorder code is given, with the 4th character indicating whether the comorbid inhalant use disorder is mild, moderate, or severe: F18.14 for mild inhalant use disorder with inhalant-induced depressive disorder or FI 8.24 for a moderate or severe inhalant use disorder with inhalant-induced depressive disorder. Specify current severity: 305.90 (F18.10) Mild: Presence of 2-3 symptoms. 304.60 (F18.20) lUloderate: Presence of 4-5 symptoms. 304.60 (FI 8.20) Severe: Presence of 6 or more symptom |
