The Asperger Syndrome for Physicians

The number of diagnosed autistic individuals has increased significantly in recent years. At the same time, autistic individuals have a reduced health-related quality of life as well as a high mortality risk, as a recent study shows.Nevertheless, autistic people rarely come as patients in medical practices.This is mainly due to invisible barriers that make access to medical care for autistic people at least difficult - if not impossible.To make these barriers visible and to show ways to reduce them is a central goal of this book.In addition, the history, diagnosis and treatment of autistic individuals requires a specific approach. Therefore, the causes and effects of many diseases in Asperger autistics are presented.
