French term

différé

Non-PRO French to English Medical Psychology Psychiatry
Does this term have a specific meaning in psychiatry? Not much context really: it's just one of the diagnoses given in a psychiatric report on an AIDS-sufferer who attempted suicide.

Discussion

Answer to Jonathan: DIAGNOSTICS PROVISOIRES:
AXE I: trouble de l'ajustement avec humeur anxieuse et d�pressive.
AXE II: diff�r�.
AXE III: SIDA.
AXE IV: probl�mes multiples, argent, probl�mes avec son fils, probl�mes avec sa famille.

Perhaps I should also have said that this report comes from Canada.

Or \"Pending.\" Perhaps that particular evaluation was still pending at the time the report was created.
Peer comment(s):

agree Charlie Bavington : sounds v plausible, assuming the "Axes" are known categories of problem/issues, e.g. "Axe I" - general mental health; "Axe 3" - long-term medical conditions; "Axe 4" - other known issues. That kind of thing.

Thanks!
agree Nikki Scott-Despaigne : Nothing other than "differed" or "pending" is possible.

I am looking at "différé" as meaning "pre-recorded" as one of its meanings - so this is an off the wall suggestion following fuzzy logic...
