Abstract
Purpose of the study: to study the neurological status, anamnesis data and electroencephalography in patients with autism spectrum disorders.Material and methods. The study involved 54 children with autism spectrum disorders aged from 3 to 7 years. Anamnestic data were studied, neurological and electroencephalographic studies were performed.Results. The following were identified as the main antenatal and intranatal risk factors for the formation of neurological disorders: gestosis, the threat of termination of pregnancy, weakness of labor and an increase in the duration of the anhydrous period in mothers. A significant number of children were born prematurely and had signs of intrauterine hypoxia at birth. When examining the neurological status, the majority of patients revealed motor and coordination disorders, disorders of tactile sensitivity. Electroencephalography made it possible to register in most patients a delay in the formation of the rhythm of the bioelectrical activity of the brain. Periodic regional decelerations were detected in 9 cases, and epileptiform activity — in 5 cases.Conclusion. Disorders in the neurological status in children with autism spectrum disorders were noted in the form of mild motor symptoms, disorders of motor coordination and tactile sensitivity.
