Learning Disabilities01:25

Learning Disabilities

764
Learning disabilities are cognitive disorders caused by neurological impairments that affect cognitive functions like language and reading, without indicating overall intellectual or developmental challenges. These disabilities differ from global intellectual or developmental disabilities as they are limited to distinct cognitive functions. Common learning disabilities include dysgraphia, dyslexia, and dyscalculia, each of which impacts unique aspects of learning.

Autism Spectrum Disorder01:19

Autism Spectrum Disorder

2.0K
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition marked by persistent deficits in social communication and interaction alongside restrictive and repetitive behaviors or interests. ASD is sometimes accompanied by intellectual impairment.
These core symptoms manifest differently among individuals, ranging from mild to severe. The disorder's complexity extends beyond its clinical presentation, encompassing a diverse range of biological, cognitive, and sociocultural influences.

Substance Use Disorders Affecting Sleep

582
Substance use disorders involve a pattern of using drugs more extensively than intended and continuing use despite harmful consequences. This includes legal substances like alcohol and nicotine, as well as illegal drugs. These disorders often involve both physical and psychological dependence, reflecting compulsive use of substances that significantly alter thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, contributing to a major public health issue.
Understanding the concepts of physical dependence,...

Intellectual disability (ID) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by deficits in intellectual and adaptive functioning that manifest during the developmental period. This condition encompasses challenges in reasoning, memory, problem-solving, and learning, accompanied by impairments in everyday life skills, such as communication, self-care, and social interactions. Intellectual disability affects approximately 1% of the population in the United States, impacting an estimated 5...

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

1.4K
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. It affects approximately 5-8% of children globally, with around 60-70% of cases persisting into adulthood. ADHD has significant implications for educational attainment, social interactions, and occupational success.
Diagnostic Criteria and Symptoms
To diagnose ADHD, symptoms must manifest before age 12 and be evident across multiple settings....

Teratogenicity01:07

Teratogenicity

4.6K
The ability of a drug to produce structural deformations and functional abnormalities in the developing embryo or the fetus is called teratogenicity, and the drug producing this effect is known as a teratogen. Teratogenic effects include stillbirth, miscarriage, intrauterine growth restriction, and neurocognitive delay. A teratogen may affect the embryo at different stages of development, which is important in determining the type and extent of the damage. During blastocyst formation, the early...

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Healthcare
  • Medical Education
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD) present diagnostic and management challenges in pediatric care.
  • Effective identification and management strategies are crucial for improving outcomes in affected children.
  • There is a need for specialized training programs for healthcare teams to address FASD.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the SAFEST Choice Learning Collaborative's impact on pediatric health care teams.
  • To assess changes in knowledge, confidence, and clinical practices regarding FASD identification and management.
  • To understand participant-reported clinical challenges in managing FASD.

Main Methods:

  • A 2-year virtual learning collaborative model (Project ECHO) with 10 sessions.
  • Pre-/posttest evaluation design to measure changes in knowledge, confidence, and practice.
  • Analysis of participant case presentations to identify common clinical challenges.

Main Results:

  • 105 participants from 23 clinics across 8 states enrolled.
  • Significant increases in self-reported FASD knowledge, confidence, and screening/counseling practices.
  • Key challenges included diagnosis timing, patient care management, and addressing stigma.

Conclusions:

  • The SAFEST Choice program effectively trained pediatric teams in FASD identification and care.
  • The program demonstrated a promising educational model for improving FASD care.
  • Increased knowledge, confidence, and practice changes were reported by participants.
