ICD-9-CM Diagnosis Code 315.9 : Unspecified delay in development.
This chapter limits the discussion to the following five conditions: childhood anxiety disorders, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), conduct disorder, autism, and intellectual disability (intellectual developmental disorder).
The term “global developmental delay” (GDD) is usually reserved for younger children (typically younger than 5 years), and the term “intellectual disability” (ID) is usually applied to older children when IQ testing is valid and reliable. ID involves both cognitive and adaptive or functional components.
As presently conceptualized, global developmental delay and mental retardation or intellectual disability represent predominantly clinically defined and recognized symptom complexes that are related but not necessarily synonymous.
