Talk:Nicotine dependence

ICD-10 code
I'm in two minds about removing the ICD-10 code. Whilst searching for nicotine dependence on the online version of ICD-10 does bring up F17.2, and the "green book" lists acute nicotine intoxication and withdrawal states to F17.0 and F17.3 (respectively); the index of the base classification has no entry for nicotine dependence and no cross reference to see tobacco, nor is it an includes term at F17. It's confusing; not least because as a UK coder, this guidance exists. I'm also aware that CMS has renamed F17.2 from in the base classification, to in ICD-10-CM. Quite sensibly IMHO; however, the international version would take precedence in any discrepancy. Little pob (talk) 22:01, 3 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Withdrawn double checking with the books in front of me; despite NHS Digital's claim to the contrary, volume three of ICD-10 does tell coders to " Tobacco" at the Nicotine index trail. Little pob (talk) 08:24, 5 September 2016 (UTC)

Nicotine dependence → Tobacco use disorder – Tobacco use disorder is the official name of nicotine dependence in the DSM-5. Nicotine dependence comes indirectly from the ICD-10. For other mental disorders, it appears to me that the DSM-5 name is the one used, not the name indirectly derived from the ICD-10, such as cannabis use disorder and stimulant use disorder (as opposed to cannabis dependence or stimulant dependence).

 * Oppose. Almost all sources I have read indicate it is called "Nicotine dependence".Therefore, nicotine dependence is the most common name. QuackGuru  ( talk ) 02:15, 23 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Good point. I think tobacco use disorder is a new term in the DSM-5 and thus is not widespread yet. Perhaps we could just include it as a synonym in the lede? Michipedian (talk) 06:07, 23 October 2017 (UTC)


 * Oppose per QuackGuru, common name. I went ahead and added "tobacco use disorder" as an alternate name in the lead, per Michipedian. Randy Kryn (talk) 13:05, 23 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Yep, that satisfies my request. This can be closed, as far as I'm concerned. Michipedian (talk) 13:37, 23 October 2017 (UTC)
