Neurodevelopmental disorders at Chris Hani Baragwanath Academic Hospital: a 4-year retrospective database review

CONCLUSIONS: This study provides insights into the regional burden and clinical presentation of neurodevelopmental disorders. Trends in this region reflect broader global patterns, with increasing numbers of children presenting with complex conditions. Greater resources are needed for earlier diagnosis and therapy, access to all tiers of genetic testing and upscaling of inclusive and special needs education.
