Challenges and Influencial Factors in Autism-Specific Diagnostics in Toddlers Abstract. Objective: What are the particular challenges that make early diagnosis of young children difficult in the clinical routine? What recommendations can be derived from this in practice? Methods: Our interdisciplinary social pediatric team examined 31 toddlers aged 2 to 3 years twice in intervals of 6-9 months in the for outpatient diagnostics regarding suspected autism spectrum disorder (ASD). In addition, we conducted an online survey with further experts. Results: After the first anamnestic interview, 8 of the 31 (26 %) children were diagnosed with a differential diagnosis of ASD. Comorbid disorders, familial peculiarities, and challenges posed by the examination setting and anamnesis made a reliable clinical classification difficult. Conclusion: In our experience, many toddlers can only receive a valid diagnosis after a follow-up examination after starting one or more therapies and regularly carrying out these therapies over a period of 6-9 months and possibly also after structural changes have taken place (care in nursery, implementation of youth welfare measures, or similar).
