Role of Pediatrician in Early Risk Evaluation, Diagnosis and Management of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders

https://doi.org/10.15690/vsp.v20i2.2255

Abstract

The article discusses recent ideas about autism: classification approaches, incidence, etiology and pathogenesis, clinical manifestations and diagnosis, comorbid medical conditions, early detection approaches and medical care for children with autism spectrum disorders. The focus is on the information needed for pediatricians in their practice to provide effective medical care for children with neurodevelopmental disorders.
