The developmental paediatric consultation focuses on the development and behaviour of healthy and sick children from infancy to adolescence. Taking into account the social environment, personal medical history, cognitive, linguistic, motor and socio-emotional development, a comprehensive individual development profile is drawn up. This is the basis for detecting possible developmental abnormalities at an early stage and initiating appropriate further diagnostic and, above all, developmental measures.
Within the department, there is close and interdisciplinary cooperation with colleagues from the Neuropaediatrics, Neuropsychology, Neonatologythe in-house medical-therapeutic departments, but also with the external educational-therapeutic institutions (School psychology servicecentres), as well as child and adolescent psychiatry BL and BS.
