Down Syndrome Regression Disorder: Symptoms, Treatments and How to Manage
Individuals with Down syndrome (DS) are at risk for a variety of neurologic conditions across the lifespan ranging from epilepsy to Alzheimer's disease. Down Syndrome Regression Disorder (DSRD) is a rare condition affecting teens and young adults with DS that causes a rapid deterioration in their ability to function along with insomnia, catatonia, hallucinations, and new autistic features. This condition is severe but treatable. Join us for an informative presentation when NIH physicians will delve into understanding DSRD, distinguishing it from other neurological conditions, and exploring available treatments.
