Developmental disability is a broad term used by clinicians to describe a condition associated with motor, language, or cognitive impairment. As one in six children is diagnosed with at least one developmental disability, it is important for clinicians to know the key steps to evaluate for these conditions. This video aims to provide a framework for assessment and workup of children with developmental disabilities.
