JUMP for DCD: Joining Up Motor Assessments for Pediatricians

This study is to support and build capacity for community pediatricians to be able to identify and diagnose children and youth, ages 3-16 years with DCD. Study participation involves one 2-hour visit at BC Children’s Hospital for an OT assessment and parent/guardian to complete questionnaires. An OT report is then sent to families and the pediatrician, to inform a DCD diagnosis. The study team is then informed by pediatrician if the child/youth meet criteria for a DCD diagnosis and the parent/guardian complete a final short survey.
