What you may notice
Symptoms can overlap with other conditions and vary between people.
- High-pitched infant cry
- Low muscle tone
- Developmental delay
- Small head size
Understanding care
Clinical care may include chromosomal assessment and individualized feeding, communication and developmental support. A qualified clinician decides which investigations and options fit the individual situation.
When to seek help
Arrange specialist assessment for growth, feeding or developmental concerns. Breathing difficulty, loss of responsiveness or new seizures requires urgent care rather than a community review.
For severe breathing difficulty, collapse, suspected stroke, or another emergency, call local emergency services immediately. In India, call 112.
