Research progress in the motor difficulties in children with autism spectrum disorder

doi:10.11852/zgetbjzz2020-2163

Abstract

Abstract: Children with autism spectrum disorders(ASD) are often accompanied with motor difficulties,and perform as early motor delay,motor learning difficulties,slow movement,fitness decline and so on,which is affected by heredity,age,core symptoms,comorbidity,intervention and other factors. The motor difficulties of ASD children are often ignored,which disturb their learning and social activities. Pediatricians should monitor the early motor difficulties of ASD children,and carry out individualized training according to their characteristics in order to promote motor development and improve core symptoms,thus improving their quality of life.

Key words: autism spectrum disorder, motor difficulties, core symptoms, comorbidity, intervention

摘要： 孤独症谱系障碍(ASD) 儿童常伴运动障碍,可表现为早期运动发育落后、运动学习困难、运动速度迟缓、体能下降等,并受遗传、年龄、核心症状、共患疾病、干预等多种因素影响。ASD儿童的运动障碍常会被忽视,在不同程度上影响了其学习和社会交往。儿科医师应对ASD儿童进行早期运动功能的监测,针对其运动障碍特点进行个性化训练,以促进其运动发育,并辅助改善其核心功能障碍,从而提高生活质量。
