Overview of Assessment
 Screening—Looks at the whole population to identify
those at risk—flags those who need further assessment
 Assessment—Determines existence of delay or
disability—generates decision regarding intervention
 Surveillance—Periodic evaluation of development in
relation to the child as a whole

“The American Academy of Pediatrics Committee
on Children with Disabilities recommends the use
of standardized screening tests at well visits.”
About 16% of children have disabilities,
including speech and language delays,
mental retardation, learning disabilities,
and emotional/behavioral problems.

(Only 50% are detected prior to
school entrance.)

“Under-detection … Eliminates the Possibility
of Early Intervention...”
• No point in waiting to do structured
assessments until the problem is
observable.
• Do not ignore assessment results;
there is no value to “wait and see.”
• Informal checklists have no validated
criteria for referral.
4
Limited use of structured developmental
assessments at well visits because…




Takes too long.
Difficult to administer.
Children may not cooperate.
Reimbursement is limited.
5
So….
What Should We Do?
 Use new, brief, accurate tools.
 Use parents.
 Use family-centered principles.
6
Family-centered Principles






Continuous
Comprehensive
Coordinated
Compassionate
Culturally Responsive
Family Centered
7
The Screening Tools
Types of screening include
 Parent Questionnaire
 History/Interview
 Direct Elicitation
 Observation
Desired Sensitivity and Specificity
 Seventy percent to 80%

Structured Developmental Assessments
Help Focus Visit on Parents’ Concerns
 Can facilitate parent-provider communication
 Can aid in prioritizing issues for visit
 Can help ensure that parents’ concerns are
addressed during visit

Questionnaire
 Original work—1981; revised 1991, 1994
 Original sample—2008
 Validation—Gesell, Bayley, Stanford-Binet, McCarthy,
Batelle; Overall = 83%
 Sensitivity—72%
 Specificity—86%
______________________________
Ages Tested: 4 to 60 months

Parents’ Evaluation of
Developmental Status
Validation—771 children.
Standardized—971 children across the United States.
Sensitivity—74% to 80%
Specificity—70% to 80%
Format—Each questionnaire reviews 10 items.
“No,” “yes,” and “a little” are responses.
Decision pathways A through E, based on score, to refer or do a
second stage screen with Ages and Stages Questionnaire, Bayley
Infant Neurodevelopmental Screener, Batelle, or CDI.

assessment.
Elicit support from practice leaders.
Select an assessment tool.
Assign responsibility for coordinating use of
structured assessments.
Determine when parent will receive assessment.
Test tool on small scale.
Plan for needed resources/referrals.
16
Implementing Use of Structured
Developmental Assessments
 Train staff.
 Determine what to do with completed
assessments.
 Monitor your new system for using structured
assessment.
 Use feedback from structured assessments to
periodically determine needs/concerns of
“average” patient.
