Mortality Rate Increased in ASD Typically Gastrointestinal, Respiratory, Seizures The elevated mortality rate is related to the comorbid medical conditions and intellectual disability rather than to ASD Coordinated medical care for this population is critical Bilder et al, 2012 ’Excess Mortality and Causes of Death In Autism Spectrum Disorders’
Slide 10-

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity (Executive Dysfunction, Hyperactivity, Impulsivity, Inattention) Anxiety Disorders (Social Interaction/“Empathy”: ?Shyness/Social Phobia, Disinterest/Schizoid, “Hostile Intent”/Schizotypal) Asperger’s Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (Restricted interests Rigid behavior Stereotypic behavior Compulsions) Communication Disorders (Thought Disorder, Disordered Pragmatics) Autism Mood Disorders (Mood Dysregulation, Anxiety, Depression, Mania) Psychiatric Comorbidities
