Prehľad diagnostických nástrojov na hodnotenie komunikácie a reči detí s hydrocefalom v ranom veku v kontexte narušenej komunikačnej schopnosti
A review of diagnostic tools for assessing the communication and speech of children with early age hydrocephalus in the context of impaired communication skills

Summary/Abstract: The field of early diagnosis and intervention in children at an early age is still a hot topic in Slovakia and abroad. It is based on the paradigm that early identification of children potentially at risk allows for early and appropriate intervention, which leads to better prognosis and more effective compensation of developmental deficits. This article focuses on the diagnosis of impaired communication skills in the early years up to the age of 3 in children potentially at risk in this area. This group includes children who have been diagnosed with hydrocephalus as a result of damage to the central nervous system, which places them at risk of communication and language impairment in both the receptive and expressive domains. The aim of this article is to give a brief overview of some foreign diagnostic tools used not only abroad but also in Slovakia for the assessment of children‘s communication skills at an early age.
