In this enlightening episode, a talk by:
Avinash Boddapati, M.D. Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist | Assistant Professor of Psychiatry
we dive into the intricacies of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) according to the DSM-5, offering clarity on diagnostic criteria and differentiating ASD from other neurodevelopmental and social communication disorders. We explore the prevalence of ASD, its genetic and environmental risk factors, and dispel common myths, such as the debunked link between vaccines and autism.
Discover the unique challenges individuals with ASD face in social communication, restrictive behaviors, and sensory sensitivities, accompanied by an examination of common comorbidities. The episode further addresses the significance of early diagnosis and intervention, discussing various screening tools and the benefits of catching ASD early on.
We also outline an array of therapeutic approaches—from behavioral therapies like Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) to pharmacological interventions for managing symptoms. Plus, engage with real-life case studies to illustrate ASD's diverse manifestations and the potential for tailored interventions.
Join us as we untangle the complexities of ASD, fostering a better understanding of the spectrum and encouraging effective support strategies for individuals and their families.
