Medical management of children with achondroplasia: Evaluation of an Australasian cohort aged 0-5 years
Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, 03/16/2012
Ireland PJ et al. – Access to geneticists and paediatricians within the first year is high as recommended by the 2005 American Academy of Pediatrics guidelines. Utilisation of craniocervical magnetic resonance imaging/computed tomography, polysomnography studies and formal speech review appears low, reflecting more emphasis on clinical monitoring for cervical cord compression and disordered sleep breathing as well as possible difficulties in accessing services for polysomnography and speech pathology.
