Tunisia-Kebili:Medical convoy for early detection of autism spectrum at Douz Hospital

Dr. Tabbal noted that this convoy falls within the framework of the national program prepared by the Ministry of Health for the early detection of autism spectrum disorder in children during vaccination sessions. He underscored that health agents, especially vaccination agents partaking in this campaign, will acquire the skills necessary to conduct the required tests for children during future vaccination sessions. They will furthermore be trained to identify children exhibiting behavioural disorders and refer them to specialists to review their psychological condition. Early detection of autism spectrum disorder will assist in its treatment, and this proactive approach is critical in achieving that goal.
