research into detecting and correcting dyslexia, dyspraxia, attention deficit disorderand other learning difficulties caused by neurodevelopmental delay NDD.
http://www.inpp.org.uk/INPP_3_1_NDD.htm

Extractions: The term Neuro-Developmental Delay describes the omission or arrest of a stage in early development. Each one of us is born with a set of primitive reflexes (sometimes known as "survival reflexes"), which should be inhibited or controlled by a higher part of the brain during the first year of life. If these are not inhibited at the correct time, they remain "active" in the body, and may impede subsequent motor control, eye functioning, eye-hand co-ordination and perceptual skills. Frustration, hyperactivity and hypersensitivity may be further symptoms, as the child finds it difficult to perform daily tasks to his true level of potential, while to all outward appearances he is perfectly normal.

Extractions: Normal and Abnormal Development Developmental Delay Mary, aged 36 months, is brought to your office with her parents who are concerned about her poor language skills. They report she has about 40 words, and is just beginning to use 2 words together. Mary was born following a normal pregnancy, labour and delivery. She was discharged home with her mother at 24 hours of age, and breast fed satisfactorily for 4 months, following some initial difficulty with latching on. Mary rolled at about 6 months, sat at 10 months, and started to walk at 19 months. She started to babble in the first few months of life, and began to say "Dada & Moma" around 18 months. At the present time, she is mainly self feeding, but is very messy with both a spoon and an open cup. She can walk up and down stairs provided her hand is held, but otherwise prefers to crawl down. She is described as very cautious, unable to climb up a slide, and cannot jump. She has shown no interest in toilet training. Physical Examination: Weight: 12.4 kg. Height 93 cm. Head circumference 46.2 cm. On examination: some low tone through hips and lower limbs, otherwise exam is completely within normal limits.

Language acquisition is the primary area of concern as the child grows and develops. There are no obvious related causes such as hearing loss or low IQ. The condition appears in young children and is known to persist into adulthood. Although the causes are unknown, current research focuses on possible inherited tendencies. Early identification and intervention are considered best practices, in order to minimize possible academic risks.

Autism, Pervasive Developmental Delay & Attention Deficit Disorder
Autism, pervasive developmental delay (PPD), and attention deficit disorder (ADD)are labels given to conditions that cause some children to have difficulties
http://www.drmagaziner.com/autism.htm

Extractions: Understanding Underlying Causes Autism, pervasive developmental delay (PPD), and attention deficit disorder (ADD) are labels given to conditions that cause some children to have difficulties with perception, thought, language, behavior and sociability. While these conditions may be related by similarity of symptoms, the names attached to them tell us nothing about their underlying biochemical, immunological or environmental causes. By discussing, understanding and treating the medical origins of autism and related illnesses, we can offer families of affected children hope for improvement. At the Magaziner Center, our goal is to help maximize your child's potential by setting up an individualized program aimed at diagnosing and treating often hidden problems that may be impeding his or her development . The initial investigation into the autistic spectrum or ADD begins with a detailed history and physical examination of your child. Areas of focus include problems with immune weaknesses and recurrent infections, reactions to vaccines, food sensitivities, complications during pregnancy, labor and delivery, digestive disorders, exposure to environmental toxins, chronic antibiotic use and candida or yeast overgrowth.

Developmental Delay
developmental delay. By Toni Hager, NDS ©2002. developmental delay comes invarious degrees of severity and is a common cause of parental worry.
http://www.kidscanlearn.net/development.htm

Extractions: Developmental Delay By Toni Hager, NDS Developmental delay comes in various degrees of severity and is a common cause of parental worry. If a child has a visible disability such as CP, Moebius Syndrome or Down Syndrome the parent is quickly guided into early intervention programs. However, on the other side, if the disability is hidden like the effects of prenatal exposure to alcohol or drugs, or maybe the child experienced undetected ear infections or hasnt learn to use their vision (not sight) efficiently the child will struggle and far too often parents are told, "He will out grow it", "He is just a little immature", "He'll catch up or .Just give him a lot of love". Parents know in their hearts that something isnt right and the childs development isnt going well that the problem is real. Developmental delay can have many causes but one of the most common is a slowly developing nervous system. It is important to realize that if the delay of the nervous system occurs early in life it usually impedes the rate of development. This means the gap between such a child and his or her chronological peers will widen with age. For this reason, parents need to act early to provide appropriate programs for their child that can help minimize this gap. Older children with developmental delay usually have additional problems.
