Von der hinteren Coverseite

PANDAS (Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders Associated with Streptococcal Infections) and PANS (Pediatric Acute-Onset Neuropsychiatric Syndrome) occur after abnormal immune responses to infection, and can cause unusual psychological symptoms in children, including OCD, tics, ADHD, anxiety disorders, sensory issues and marked personality changes. This handbook explains how educators can distinguish between these symptoms and pre-existing conditions and offers strategies for supporting students with PANDAS and PANS. Contributions from experts provide educators with the knowledge and skills to collaboratively identify PANDAS and PANS symptoms, design appropriate accommodations, carry out effective interventions and support families. As awareness of PANDAS and PANS increases, this book is an essential resource for understanding these complex disorders and overcoming the challenges they present.
