Track: Developmental and Behavioural Pediatrics
Developmental and Behavioural Pediatrics is a specialist profession that studies and addresses the developmental and behavioral issues that children confront from infancy to puberty. Pediatricians who specialize in this profession are trained to assess and treat a variety of developmental delays, learning impairments, autism spectrum disorders, Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and other behavioral and emotional issues. By integrating the latest research with clinical practices, participants will be better prepared to implement effective interventions and support strategies, ultimately enhancing the quality of care for pediatric patients.
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD):
This session addresses the neurobiological underpinnings of ADHD, including the latest diagnostic criteria and treatment modalities. Discussions will cover pharmacological therapies, behavioral interventions, and strategies for managing ADHD symptoms in educational and home settings.
Learning Disabilities:
Focused on identifying and addressing specific learning disabilities, this session explores the diagnostic assessment process and Individualized Education Plans (IEPs). It includes interventions aimed at improving academic performance and supporting cognitive development in children with learning challenges.
Behavioral Disorders:
This session covers a range of behavioral disorders, including Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) and Conduct Disorder (CD). It highlights assessment techniques, evidence-based behavioral therapies, and approaches to fostering positive behavior changes in children.
Pediatric Anxiety Disorders:
Exploring various pediatric anxiety disorders such as Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) and Social Anxiety Disorder, this session discusses diagnostic criteria, therapeutic interventions, and the role of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in managing anxiety symptoms in children.
Feeding and Eating Disorders:
This session examines feeding and eating disorders in children, including Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) and anorexia nervosa. It includes discussions on assessment methods, nutritional interventions, and multidisciplinary approaches to treatment and management.
By submitting your abstract, you have the opportunity to engage in pivotal discussions that are driving the future of the pediatric field. Your insights can contribute significantly to innovations and advancements that will shape pediatric care on a global scale.
