Developmental Tools Used During Routine Well-Child Visits
The following questionnaires endorsed by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) can help a health professional determine whether a child has any developmental delays:
- Ages and Stages Questionnaire
- BRIGANCE Screens
- Child Development Inventories (such as the Denver II and the Minnesota Child Development Inventory)
- Parents' Evaluations of Development Status
- Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers (M-CHAT)
Although these questionnaires are important, they may not consistently identify problems, such as autism, in older children, adolescents, and young adults or in a child any age with a mild condition. However, when used routinely, they can help identify subtle developmental delays that may otherwise be missed.
Important It is possible that the main title of the report Reye Syndrome is not the name you expected. Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name(s) and disorder subdivision(s) covered by this report.
