Private general paediatricians manage a significant number of children with developmental-behavioural (DB) problems. Findings highlight a need for improved training and public/private collaboration in child health services.

Area of Science:

  • Child Health
  • Developmental Paediatrics
  • Behavioural Science

Background:

  • Private general paediatricians play a crucial role in managing children's developmental and behavioural issues.
  • Understanding their current involvement is essential for service planning.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the current role of private general paediatricians in managing developmental-behavioural (DB) problems.
  • To assess their referral rates, ongoing management practices, and training needs.

Main Methods:

  • A survey was distributed to general paediatricians registered with the Australian College of Paediatrics.
  • Data analysis focused on 172 private practitioners spending over 25% of their time on developmental-behavioural issues.

Main Results:

  • An average of 32% of new referrals were for DB problems.
  • Paediatricians opted to co-manage with allied health services in 65% of presented clinical vignettes.
  • Respondents recommended increased training durations in DB paediatrics, developmental disabilities, and child psychiatry.

Conclusions:

  • Private general paediatricians are actively involved in developmental-behavioural care.
  • The study indicates a need for enhanced training programs and better collaboration between public and private child health sectors.
