lüll Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder: Canadian guidelines for diagnosis Chudley AE; Conry J; Cook JL; Loock C; Rosales T; LeBlanc NCMAJ 2005[Mar]; 172 (5 Suppl): S1-S21The diagnosis of fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) is complex and guidelines are warranted. A subcommittee of the Public Health Agency of Canada's National Advisory Committee on Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder reviewed, analysed and integrated current approaches to diagnosis to reach agreement on a standard in Canada. The purpose of this paper is to review and clarify the use of current diagnostic systems and make recommendations on their application for diagnosis of FASD-related disabilities in people of all ages. The guidelines are based on widespread consultation of expert practitioners and partners in the field. The guidelines have been organized into 7 categories: screening and referral; the physical examination and differential diagnosis; the neurobehavioural assessment; and treatment and follow-up; maternal alcohol history in pregnancy; diagnostic criteria for fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS), partial FAS and alcohol-related neurodevelopmental disorder; and harmonization of Institute of Medicine and 4-Digit Diagnostic Code approaches. The diagnosis requires a comprehensive history and physical and neurobehavioural assessments; a multidisciplinary approach is necessary. These are the first Canadian guidelines for the diagnosis of FAS and its related disabilities, developed by broad-based consultation among experts in diagnosis.|*Prenatal Exposure Delayed Effects[MESH]|Abnormalities, Multiple/diagnosis[MESH]|Adult[MESH]|Alcohol Drinking/prevention & control[MESH]|Alcoholism/diagnosis/prevention & control[MESH]|Canada/epidemiology[MESH]|Child[MESH]|Diagnosis, Differential[MESH]|Ethanol[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders/*diagnosis/epidemiology/prevention & control[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Infant, Newborn[MESH]|Mass Screening/*standards[MESH]|Medical History Taking/standards[MESH]|Nervous System Diseases/diagnosis[MESH]|Physical Examination/*standards[MESH]|Pregnancy[MESH]|Pregnancy Complications/diagnosis/prevention & control[MESH]|Referral and Consultation/*standards[MESH]|Risk Factors[MESH] |
