Article Description

Specific speech impairments are the most common developmental disorders in childhood. Affected persons suffer not only from speech deficits but also bear an increased risk of development of further conspicuous traits, for example in behavior or emotional aspects. In addition, the scholastic achievements are conspicuous in most cases, which substantially influence the further educational and occupational development. In order to be able to initiate interventions at an early stage, comprehensive guideline-oriented speech development diagnostics are necessary in practice. The revisions of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD) have to be taken into consideration, which represent new challenges for research and practice. This article provides an overview of the necessary diagnostic procedures and provides recommendations for speech development diagnostics.
