Developmental and behavioural paediatrics is the assessment of children to ascertain their developmental status. This includes speech and language delay, learning difficulties, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and social communication disorders, including Aspergers Syndrome and Autism. Accurate diagnosis means that children, and their parents, can be given the appropriate support and advice required to ensure the best possible therapy and support (BMI Healthcare).
This book is a comprehensive guide to the diagnosis and management of developmental and behavioural disorders in children.
Beginning with an introduction to normal development and behaviour, the text then discusses surveillance and screening processes.
Each of the following chapters covers a different disorder or syndrome, from Downs syndrome, neuroregressive disorders and ADHD, to cerebral palsy, selective mutism, visual and hearing impairments, and many more.
The final sections discuss therapeutic techniques including pharmacotherapy, counselling, and complementary and alternative medicine.
