About Dyspraxia

Dyspraxia, also known as Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD), is not a medical procedure but a lifelong neurological condition affecting motor skill development and coordination. An Internal Medicine specialist plays a crucial role in the comprehensive management of dyspraxia, particularly in adults where it may co-occur with other medical conditions. The specialist's approach involves a detailed diagnostic assessment to rule out other neurological or muscular disorders, followed by the creation of a personalized, multidisciplinary management plan. This plan focuses on improving daily functioning, addressing co-existing issues like anxiety or fatigue, and providing strategies to cope with the challenges in planning and executing movements. The goal is to enhance the patient's independence and quality of life through coordinated care.

  • Note down any current medications, supplements, or therapies.
  • Be prepared for a clinical examination that may assess coordination, balance, and reflexes.

Risks & possible complications

  • There are no procedural risks as this is a diagnostic and management consultation, not a surgical or interventional procedure.
  • Potential for emotional distress when discussing lifelong challenges and receiving a diagnosis.
  • Possible frustration if expected quick fixes or cures are not available, as management is long-term and strategy-based.
  • Risk of misdiagnosis if the assessment is not thorough, highlighting the need for a specialist evaluation.

Recovery & hospital stay

  • Recovery in the traditional sense does not apply, as dyspraxia is managed, not cured.
  • Post-consultation, the focus is on implementing the recommended strategies and therapies (e.g., occupational therapy).
  • Regular follow-up appointments with the Internal Medicine specialist are scheduled to monitor progress and adjust the management plan.
  • Patients are encouraged to practice recommended exercises and cognitive strategies consistently in their daily routines.
  • Building a support network and possibly seeking workplace or educational accommodations is part of the long-term management process.
