1 10 Toolkit for Medical Professionals 1 First Concerns Wh at if I (o r t h e pa r e n t s) h av e c o n c e r n s a b o u t a pat i e n t? Remember that the AAP guidelines now indicate that all children should be screened for an ASD at their 18 and 24 month well-baby checks (Johnson, Myers, 2007). If you think you may have a patient with an ASD, begin with a Phase 1 screening. Ask about caregiver concerns (see page 12) Probe for age-appropriate skills in each developmental domain Use direct observation Remember absolute indicators for immediate evaluation include: No babbling by 12 months No gesturing (e.g., pointing, waving bye-bye ) by 12 months No single words by 16 months No spontaneous 2-word (non-echolalic) phrases by 24 months Loss of any language or social skills at any age. If there are concerns from the check or the child demonstrates the absolute indicators, you may want to administer an autism screen: The Checklist for Autism in Toddlers (Baron-Cohen et al., 1996) The Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers (Robbins, Fein & Barton, 1999; see page 16) Social Communication Questionnaire (formerly the Autism Screening Questionnaire; Berument, Rutter, Lord, Pickles, & Bailey, 1999 ). Refer those at risk for an evaluation with ASD experts, otherwise referred to as a Phase 2 screening (Filipek et al., 1999). Some referral sources are listed within this toolkit (see page 22) The most conservative method would be to refer at any sign (i.e., see Autism Screening Poster, page 18) for further evaluation.
2 Section i 11 What is an Autism Spectrum Disorder? Autism Spectrum Disorders is the popularized and lay-term for referring to the disorders referred to in the medical/clinical literature as Pervasive Developmental Disorders (PDDs), with impairments in: Functional communication Reciprocal socialization skills Repetitive behaviors, interests, and activities Autistic Disorder Impaired social skills Impaired communication skills Presence of stereotyped or repetitive behavior Symptoms presents by age 3, diagnosed as young as 2 years Asperger s Disorder Impaired social skills Repetitive behaviors No significant languaged or cognitive delays PDD-NOS Impaired social skills AND Either Impaired communication skills OR Repetitive behaviors AND Not enough symptoms to diagnose another ASD PDD-NOS is NOT the same as PDD, which is the umbrella term for the spectrum of 5 disorders Rett s Disorder Apparently normal development until 5 months with loss of skills after 5 months Social disengagement Poor coordination Severe language impairments Presence of repetitive behavior (especially hand-wringing) Ch i l d h o o d Di s i n t e g r at i v e Di s o r d e r Apparently normal development until 2 years Loss of skills (e.g., language, adaptive behavior) Impaired social skills Impaired communication skills Presence of repetitive behavior The social impairments in autism are significant and pervasive, interfering with functioning appropriate to the individual s developmental age (Posey & McDougle, 2002). Several disorders can be mistaken for ASDs. ASDs must be distinguished from social awkwardness (Posey & McDougle, 2002). ASDs are more common in males, at a 4:1 ratio.
3 12 Toolkit for Medical Professionals Questions to Ask Families Concerned about ASD Ch i l d r e n u n d e r 2: 1. Does s/he smile in response/clearly notice the presence of other people? 2. Can you soothe your child when s/he is upset? 3. Does s/he show increased/ reduced sensory issues? _ 4. Does s/he point, wave, or use other gestures? 5. Does s/he understand your gestures? 6.

Has s/he ever lost social skills? 4. Is s/he bothered by small changes in his/her environment? 5. Does s/he engage in repetitive motor movements? 6. Does s/he ever intentionally injure him/herself? _ 7. Has s/he ever lost language (i.e., stopped talking)? _ 8. Does s/he have a high pain threshold? _ 9.
