A huge number of diseases is descended. However not the illness, but predisposition to it can be inherited. Carry autism to such problems.
There is a special type of a mental disorder, under assumptions of scientists, because of violations of work of a brain. The disease of an acute shortage of attention is expressed. The child having autism does not make contact, very difficult adapts.
Causes of an illness
The only gene or chromosomal mutation can be the reason of a similar state. The baby is already born with pathology. Genetic aspects of a problem are extremely difficult. Researchers geneticists are more inclined to believe, there are several factors provoking the births of the kid autist.
Carry to them:
- advanced age of future father of the child;
- the country in which was born the baby;
- small weight at the birth;
- shortage of oxygen at the time of delivery;
According to some parents, the main reason for development of pathology are inoculations. However proofs of such hypothesis do not exist.
It is found out that boys are more often subject to an illness. Connect effect of solvents, phenols, heavy metals and pesticides with autism.
Are capable to provoke development and the infectious diseases transferred to the incubation period. Leads the use of narcotic medicines, smoking, alcohol to pathology. These factors influence both during pregnancy, and to it.
Anyway, reasons much. It is impossible to predict appearance of such child in advance. The predisposition can not be shown and not be implemented throughout all life. But here any expert cannot give the fullest guarantee of it.
Types of pathology
Despite big community of manifestations of the diagnosis, allocate several types of autism:
- full detachment from the events;
- active rejection;
- artistic interests.
At full rejection of the outside world of violation of activity are shown early. Kids completely refuse any contacts with surrounding.
Children do not ask anything. They do not react to requests, do not talk and do not gesticulate. Similar course is considered the most serious and deep.
At active rejection outside perception there is a most part of the world. To kids stability of a habitual situation is much more important. With age the disease is shown more sharply because of need of visit of establishment of education.
The speech is more developed, but practically all words have to be associated with specific situations. In this case it is simpler to children to understand information.
At artistic interests kids often konfliktna, are selfish, demand the same classes. At children the speech is quite well developed, but offers are long, abstruse.
At violation of thinking the intelligence is quite developed. Kids experience difficulties with the organization of interaction. They are not able to contact to others, movement skills trouble them. Distinguishes pathology carriers poverty of the speech. These manifestations carry to the easiest form.
Features of behavior
Practically all experts agree in opinion that the most severe forms are extremely rare. Autistic manifestations are more widespread. When carrying out with it kids of enough time the kid almost does not differ in anything from peers.
External manifestations of an illness begin together with changes in brain zones. Process is not studied to this day, however parents noted that at autists such signs are present since early childhood. The child can impart skills of communication in case of immediate acceptance of urgent measures.
Techniques of full treatment it is not developed. Only a small part of autists enters adulthood independently. Some nevertheless manage to achieve a certain progress. At advanced age frequent attacks of aggression, anger are shown.
A certain behavior model is usually often duplicated. Doctors allocate several versions:
- stereotypy;
- compulsive behavior;
- ritual behavior;
- limited behavior;
The stereotypy is shown in rocking of a body, rotation by the head, constant rocking by a trunk. The child needs monotony. In especially strong form the protests are shown even if desired parents to carry out shift of furniture in the nursery.
Insertion of objects exclusively in a certain way is an example of compulsive behavior. Manifestations of an autoaggression are capable to lead to traumatizing. At ritual behavior all actions remind the certain ritual performed everyday and constantly.
At limited behavior interests the only subject. Ignoring of visual contact is recognized as one more factor. Such children do not look in the face to the interlocutor.
Features of mentality
As pathology affects nervous system, the illness in a development deviation is shown. Such signs from early age are noticeable. Externally the kid looks normally. However at attentive study , mentality deviations are noticeable.
The main symptoms consider:
- insufficient learning ability;
- the attacks developing more often at teenage age;
- inability to concentrate attention;
- hyperactivity in attempt of adults to give a certain assignment;
- the anger especially noticeable in case of difficulties with a formulation of the desires, at intervention of strangers in a habitual ritual, violation of the usual schedule;
- Savant's syndrome (it is shown seldom in the form of phenomenal abilities, for example, of musical endowments, talent for drawing).
In the latter case autists with such sign are not enough. At thorough observation of the child the parents find a deviation in development at once. Cannot often explain the alarms adult, but they see that their kid considerably differs from other children in certain signs.
From infantile age the revival syndrome is broken. Even such children recognize the mothers much later from peers. At the same time the kid will not begin to stretch handles, to smile. He will not react to attempts of communication with it.
For hours the autist lies and looks in one point. It can unexpectedly be frightened own hand. Are frequent at such children frequent rocking. In process of growing of vivacity does not increase. Quite often the distinction with peers is expressed more sharply.
Symptoms of autism
Detachment, indifference to the events is observed. During communication the autist avoids a look in eyes. Collective not for such children. They are not able to play with all, prefer loneliness. Usually long time the similar child makes the same actions.
He differs in indifference, constantly makes mechanically sample movements. The lexicon is extremely poor, the pronoun "I" is never heard in the speech. In children's group of such individuals allocate at first sight.
The outside world they perceive as continuous and absolutely unclear to them chaos. It is also told by the autists having speech skills. Not only the deviation of mentality, but also the broken touch perception is the reason of similar perception.
The child with pathology perceives irritants habitual to other people extremely negative He is not guided in a situation, he increased uneasiness. Quite often even healthy children do not wish to communicate. All have different rates of development.
However there are several signs which have to guard adults. Sharp changes of mood, inadequacy of behavior of the kid are dangerous. Guards if the baby avoids contacts, it is indifferent to pain or does not transfer sharp sounds.
Desire in general to be silent or very badly developed speech causes nervousness. The carrier of pathology does not communicate with peers. When studying new objects the kid tries their taste, sniffs.
The persistence or the total detachment are frequent, the stop in development Is probable. So, the child is familiar with some words, but with them does not build the offer. Even with some signs there is a sense to show the kid to the expert.
With similar children the psychologist gives recommendations about communication and classes. He will determine the level of manifestation of symptoms of an illness.
Work methods
At best efforts there is a chance of acquisition by children of skills of communication. But treatment has to be timely and complex. Its main tasks is:
- removal of tension in family;
- increase in functional independence.
Methods select individually. individual selection of therapy. Universal remedies at autism do not exist. Techniques provide improvement.
There are special programs promoting decrease in manifestations of symptomatology in diseases and to finding of working skills. Usually supplement them with medicamentous means, medicines for decrease in uneasiness. Without appointment as the expert they cannot be given.
Change also a diet of the kid, excluding from it the products operating excitingly or depressing on nervous system. Surely give vitamins. In communication of feature of the autist it is obligatory to consider.
For establishing contact with special kids it is necessary to adhere to simple councils:
- It is important to accept the child it what he is.
- Always it is necessary to consider its interests.
- It is obligatory to observe a rhythm of life of the kid accurately.
- It is important to develop and to everyday follow certain rules, to visit more often an institution where the offspring studies.
- With the baby it is important to speak.
- It is necessary to try to create a comfortable situation for training and leisure.
- To explain all stages of activity patiently.
- It is very good to support an explanation with pictures.
- Are inadmissible overfatigue.
The diagnosis autism, is not a sentence. The main thing is to love the child.
