Key Department Guide

Pediatric Rehabilitation

The Department of Pediatric Rehabilitation primarily serves individuals with cerebral palsy, developmental delays, autism spectrum disorders, language disorders, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), functional impairments related to inherited metabolic diseases, premature infant follow-up, and children with motor coordination disorders. Treatment emphasizes family-centered, function-goal-oriented early intervention. Common methods include motor training, occupational therapy, speech and swallowing therapy, sensory integration training, behavioral intervention, and fitting of orthotics and assistive communication tools. Children's nervous systems are highly plastic; the earlier identification and systematic intervention are implemented, the better it is for the development of motor, cognitive, language, and social adaptability abilities. Assessment requires the use of growth charts, standardized scales, hearing and vision screening, and necessary genetic and metabolic examinations. If there is poorly controlled epilepsy, progressive myopathy, risk of aspiration, malnutrition, or behavioral crisis, management should be coordinated with the pediatric neurology, nutrition, psychology, and social support teams.
