Autism Spectrum Disorder

Diagnostic Tool app is based on AIIMS modification of INDT-ASD tool.

AIIMS modification of INDT-ASD tool was developed and validated by Child Neurology Division, Department of Pediatrics, ALL India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi. The original tool developed by INCLEN-NDD project was published in Indian Pediatrics and is available online at : http://www.indianpediatrics.net/may2014/may-359-365.htm [Indian Pediatr 2014;51: 359-365]. This tool was modified to include sensory component and expanding the age group to 1-14 years. The modified tool was then validated in a study carried out at the aforementioned center and post validation has now been transformed into an app for ease of point of care use. The app has simple straightforward questions with “yes” and “no” answers, which would facilitate diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder.
