Ambulatory Screening for Specific Learning Disabilities (SLD) and Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD).

CNGE IRMG Association1,800 enrolled

Overview

To evaluate, in primary care, the sensitivity of Heterophory-Vertical-Labile (HV-Labile) in ambulatory screening for Specific Learning Disabilities (SLD) and Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD). in children aged 8 to 12 years.

General practitioners during a day of professional training on learning disabilities will be trained to perform the proprioceptive Maddox, to search for a HVLabile. Each trained practitioner will then test at least six children aged 8 to 12 years old in his or her practice, seen at random 250 to 300 physicians will be trained as part of this research EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN * Cross-sectional study with prospective recruitment. * Search for a Vertical Labile Heterophory (HV-Labile). * Prescription of a standardized speech and language screening assessment for HV-Labile, and in the same number of children without HV-Labile by secondary coupling. * Delivery of symptomatic questionnaire. * In case of learning disabilities, the attending physician should look for a possible etiology. * Adapted speech therapy care for more than six months. * Speech and language therapy check-up at more than six months.
