Risk assessment
Through the above autism screening test to diagnose autistic children, you can make the following assessment:
Children have a high risk of autism spectrum syndrome if their total score is 8 to 20. In this case, the child is at high risk and should be examined. Children at low risk for autism spectrum syndrome should be consulted if their total score is between 0 and 2. Low-risk children younger than 24 months of age should be re-evaluated and screened for autism once more. again when the baby is 24 months old. If the child is at low risk and is 24 months or older, no additional screening is needed. Hopefully the above autism screening test has helped parents to identify the first signs of autism in their children. When children are at high risk of having autism, parents need to maintain their psychological well-being and take their children to specialized medical facilities for examination, intervention and treatment. The examination and treatment of autism at an early stage will give the child the opportunity to recover quickly and lead a normal, happy life like many other children.
