PEDIATRICS Vol. 107 No. 2 February 2001, pp. 442-449

AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICS:
Health Supervision for Children With Down Syndrome

Committee on Genetics

These guidelines are designed to assist the pediatrician in caring for the child in whom the diagnosis of Down syndrome has been confirmed by karyotype. Although the pediatrician's initial contact with the child is usually during infancy, occasionally the pregnant woman who has been given the prenatal diagnosis of Down syndrome will be referred for counseling. Therefore, these guidelines offer advice for this situation as well.
