The American Academy of Pediatrics says primary care can make autism diagnosis more equitable and timely. We couldn't agree more. It's why we developed Canvas Dx, so that more clinicians can be equipped to evaluate children with developmental concern early, equitably, and rapidly.

#AutismParents Do you fear you are not doing enough for kid with autism? Feeling guilty about not meeting the intensive therapy recommendations or, if you are, why they are not “working” as you had hoped? Then listen up, I’ve got some news for you! In this week’s episode I am discussing a ground breaking article recently published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) Pediatrics that calls into question the “more is better” standard for autism therapy. Tune in to learn: * How we’ve been led to believe that more is better when it comes to therapy. * Why higher amounts of intervention may not be more helpful for children with Autism. * The dangers of the Lovaas study from 1987. * Why, no matter how much you do for your child, you feel like you’re falling short. * How to make decisions for your child without the unrealistic expectations or standards you’ve been fed.

According to data published by the American Academy of Pediatrics, nearly half of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) go missing from their environment, with a substantial number at risk for bodily harm or drowning. Children on the autism spectrum may seek out small or enclosed spaces, head toward water or places of special interest to them, or they may try to escape overwhelming stimuli such as sights, sounds, surroundings, or activities of others. The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children® has free resources and training to help support caregivers, first responders, and search teams to help mitigate missing incidents for children on the autism spectrum. #TheAWAREFoundation #NationalCenterforMissing&ExploitedChildren https://lnkd.in/eRgww7Ja

Did you know that Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA), a distinct profile within the autism spectrum, can sometimes intertwine with other autism profiles? 🤝🌟 Conditions like ADHD, often accompanied by sensory sensitivities, can overlap with PDA, creating a unique blend of characteristics in some individuals. This overlap highlights the intricate nature of autism and the need for tailored, individualized approaches. 💡👥 Our team at Orchid Pediatrics understands that no two autism journeys are the same. We're here to provide support, guidance, and knowledge as we navigate this intricate terrain together. 🌸💪 For more insights on Autism Spectrum Disorder and Pathological Demand Avoidances (PDA), visit our site at https://bit.ly/3Prb6Oq #pda #orchidpediatrics #developmentalpediatrics #asd #autism #behavioralhealth

Today, we're proud to share the news of our $10 million seed raise, led by Rethink Impact, LP. Nearly one in ten American children have ADHD, impacting their relationships, self-confidence, and performance at school. Unfortunately, 80% of children with ADHD don’t have access to the breadth or quality of care recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics, and most families wait over a year and pay $3,000 or more out of pocket to get access to ADHD treatment. Clarity Pediatrics makes pediatric ADHD care 10x more accessible and 20x more affordable: families have access to next-day appointments, including for ADHD diagnostic screening and medication-related services, and pay an average co-pay of $15 per session. This investment supports Clarity Pediatrics' launch of new clinical service lines, further development of our innovative care platform, and geographic expansion. We're grateful to Maverick Capital, Homebrew, January Ventures, VamosVentures, Alumni Ventures and City Light Capital for their participation in this round and their ongoing commitment to investing in pediatric care innovation for the benefit of all families. https://lnkd.in/eHagwFQ2 #adhd #pediatrics #chroniccare #claritypediatrics #digitalhealth #healthtech #startup #funding #seedraise #venturecapital
