Moving From Research to Practice in the Primary Care of Children With Autism Spectrum Disorders
Academic PediatricsVol. 13Issue 5p390–399Published in issue: September, 2013- Paul S. Carbone
Cited in Scopus: 25Autism spectrum disorders (ASD), once thought rare, are now commonly encountered in clinical practice. Academic pediatricians may be expected to teach medical students and pediatric residents about ASD, but most likely received limited exposure to ASD during their training. In recent years, research that informs the clinical guidance provided to pediatricians regarding surveillance, screening, and ongoing management of children with ASD has accelerated. By 24 months of age, children with ASD exhibit delays across multiple domains of development, yet the diagnosis is frequently made much later. - Mental Health, ADHD, Autism
