Indiana program tests the effectiveness of primary care doctors diagnosing autism
autside.substack.com
A recent study tested the effectiveness of certain primary care doctors in Indiana diagnosing autism.
“Community-based primary care clinicians who receive specialty training can make accurate ASD diagnoses in most cases. Diagnostic disagreements were predominately [false negative] cases in which EAE Hub clinicians had difficulty differentiating ASD and global developmental delay. [False negative] cases were associated with a differential diagnostic and phenotypic profile. This research has significant implications for the development of future population health solutions that address ASD diagnostic delays.”
Translation: the program was fairly effective. False negatives, meaning the child is autistic but the doctor failed to diagnose, confound the study for unknown reasons.
I think I know why the confounding of doctors occurs more often now given the Text Revision. I think you do too.
