Aspergers children Dubai: Aspergers diagnosis
Diagnosis of Asperger Syndrome requires a high degree of suspicion in the professional as the signs are often subtle.
Asperger symptoms in children are difficult to pick up and maybe noticed only once the child starts going to school and interacting with peers. Asperger symptoms are masked by their normal intelligence and the desire to make friends.

Aspergers children Dubai: Diagnostic assessment
The following guideline has been recommended by the NICE UK. They say it should be included in every autism diagnostic assessment for children and young people:
- Detailed questions about parents or carers’ concerns and, if appropriate, the child or young person’s concerns.
- Details of the child or young person’s experiences of home life, education and social care.
- A developmental history, focusing on developmental and behavioural features.
- Assessment (by interacting with and observing the child or young person) of social and communication skills and repetitive and stereotyped behaviours, including sensory sensitivities, using an autism-specific tool to gather this information like ADOS 2- Autism Diagnostic Observation Scale.
- A medical history, including prenatal, perinatal and family history, and the past and current health conditions.
