Let a healthy smile bloom like a flower —— The road of treatment and rehabilitation for 4-year-old children with severe autism

"He just doesn't play with other children."

"He doesn't listen to the kindergarten teacher."

"When others came to play with him, he ignored them."

This is the characteristic of many autistic children.

For autistic children, if there is no timely intervention, they may gradually widen the gap with their peers in various aspects, such as cognitive ability, social ability, communication ability and so on.

If children are immersed in their own small world, not only will there be social invisibility, but more serious children will have self-harm or aggression.

Nowadays, children are generally exposed to online information prematurely, and many parents leave the work of accompanying their children to mobile phones, computers and televisions. Children unilaterally accept the mixed information on the internet, and there is no environment and people to interact with, which has laid a hidden danger for the emergence of autism.

In addition, in the past, the incidence of autism was low and the popularity of related knowledge was low. Parents often fail to find early signs of autism in time, which not only misses the best treatment time, but also makes their children change from mild autism to severe autism.

Hanghang is a child with severe autism. Due to parents' neglect of symptoms, treatment is delayed.

Ignore the child's symptoms

The 4-year-old Hanghang (pseudonym) looks a little different from other children since childhood. At the age of two, when other children's languages were improving, Hanghang kept silent and only knew a few simple words until now. Grandma always said that "distinguished people talk late", especially boys. The later they talk, the smarter their children are. ...

Hanghang not only didn't speak, but also didn't respond when he called his name. Moreover, Hanghang is very resistant to others' approach, and she doesn't want to make eye contact when holding her. My mother also wants to take Hanghang to the community to play with the children, and wants to help the children open their hearts, but Hanghang doesn't talk and doesn't want to participate in the game. Mother thought, maybe the child is timid and afraid of strangers. Just wait for the kindergarten to have more contact.

At the age of three and a half, Hanghang was sent to kindergarten. The kindergarten teacher thinks that Hanghang's behavior is a bit weird, but the family thinks that the child is still young and there is no big problem. Just get in touch with children more. Until Hanghang has a big temper, he doesn't want to sit on a stool, and sometimes he will kowtow to the wall and other self-harm and aggressive behaviors.

At this time, the family members are alert, and there may be something wrong with navigation. Through asking a friend, the family took Hanghang to Taiyuan Angel Children's Hospital.

"Three-dimensional integration" comprehensive diagnosis and treatment

Zhu Zhichao, Dean of Taiyuan Angel Children's Hospital, accepted the consultation of air navigation. Dean Zhu Zhichao got a preliminary understanding of the situation of air navigation in his conversation with his mother, and thought that the child's performance was highly similar to autism.

In order to further evaluate the degree of the child's illness and provide information support for the formulation of the follow-up treatment plan, Dean Zhu made a number of inspection items for the flight arrangement, such as psychological evaluation, language evaluation, social life ability evaluation, and C-PEP-3 autism diagnosis scale.

The examination results show that Hanghang suffers from autism. Because he has not communicated with others for a long time, his language and social life ability have been kept at a low level, far behind his actual age.

Dean Zhu recommended a "trinity" comprehensive medical treatment, education and health diagnosis and treatment system to airline mothers according to the specific conditions of the airline's illness and the actual situation of the family. Through professional psychological intervention, he helped the children to open their hearts, and combined with transcranial magnetic therapy, traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture and other treatment methods to comprehensively treat and intervene the airline's illness.

The effect of rehabilitation diagnosis and treatment is obvious

After two weeks of intensive treatment, aviation has made remarkable progress. When the name is called, the airline has been able to respond, the language ability has been greatly improved, and the vocabulary has gradually increased. Now he calls his mother more often, and he is willing to talk. He will gradually make eye contact with people, imitate speech, communicate with people simply, speak simple sentences, understand the instructions of adults, and increase his intelligence.

The next step is to continue treatment to help airlines establish more interpersonal interaction and improve their learning ability.

In the past, the self-injury and aggression of airlines when they lost their temper were gradually appeased, and the inner feelings of children could gradually be expressed through simple words and actions. The child has made progress, and the whole family's face has also hung up a bright smile again.

Leo Kenner of Johns Hopkins University first diagnosed and named autism. This year's epidemiological survey shows that about 1% of children in the world suffer from autism, and the prevalence rate has increased in recent years. Autistic children usually show persistent social barriers, repetitive and stereotyped behavior patterns or interests, language defects, motor development disorders and intellectual problems.
