Current Care Guideline «Kehityksellinen kielihäiriö (kielellinen erityisvaikeus, lapset ja nuoret)»1 and Summary «Kehityksellinen kielihäiriö (kielellinen erityisvaikeus, lapset ja nuoret)»2 in Finnish
Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) affects a child’s functional, social and communication capacity. The associated language comprehension problems may be difficult to recognise in everyday life. Although the diagnosis of DLD is most reliable after four years of age, early support must be provided as soon as there is any suspicion of DLD. Diagnosis, rehabilitation and other therapeutic manoeuvres are based on multiprofessional co-operation.
