Introduction Schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders are debilitating diseases with a
devastating impact on patients’ lives. During the several lasts decades an emphasis on the
prodromal stage of the psychotic disorders was noted. It was established that early
interventions during this phase will prevent the development of full blown psychosis.
Several interviewing measures were obtained, by constructing the most common
presenting signs and symptoms of these pre-psychotic phases in order to identify Ultra
high risk (UHR) patients, i.e. patients in a high risk of developing a first psychotic
episode.
This identification led to the construction of criteria aimed to specifically define these
patients as in risk of developing psychosis: Psychosis risk syndrome (PRS) criteria.
