Abstract(s)

The main specific learning disorders are addressed, with regard to their definition, screening, diagnosis and general therapeutic guidance strategies. Particular attention is given to the role of the Pediatrician in early identification of risk factors and clinical manifestations, timely referencing for evaluation by appropriate subspecialists - contributing to a timely diagnosis and early intervention - and overall coordination of the multidisciplinary team.
