Abstract

Pojam autizam potječe iz grčkog jezika i znači „biti jako usmjeren na sebe“. To je socijalno-relacijski poremećaj koji je prvi opisao Leo Kanner 1943. godine. Otkriva se u ranom djetinjstvu između 18 mjeseci i 3 godine starosti. To je cjeloživotno stanje pri kojem pojedinac ima smetnje u razumijevanju što osjeća, čuje ili vidi te mu to stvara smetnje u ponašanju, komunikaciji i društvenim odnosima. Nemaju u sebi osjećaj za prostor te se često čine nespretnima, a imaju i loš mišićni tonus što utječe na njihove čudne pokrete tijekom kretanja. Udaljeni su od vlastitih osjetila i mogu koristiti samo jedno osjetilo odjednom. Prema podacima iz 2021. godine, učestalost autizma je 1:88, a smatra se da u Europi preko 5 milijuna osoba ima pervazivne razvojne poremećaje, tj. poremećaje iz spektra autizma. Prevalencija je veća kod dječaka u odnosu na djevojčice (5:1). Uzrok poremećaja iz spektra autizma nije poznat i to je stanje s kojim se pojedinac rađa. Važno je razlikovati da to nije bolest nego poremećaj. Uz ranu intervenciju, pravilnu dijagnostiku stručnog tima i rehabilitaciju, kvaliteta života osoba s poremećajem iz spektra autizma može daleko napredovati. Dan podizanja svjesnosti o autizmu obilježava se 2. travnja.

It is a lifelong condition in which individual has problems in understanding what he feels, hears or sees and that makes disturbances in his behavior, communication and social relations. They don't have a sense for space so they often seem clumsy, their muscule tone is bad which affects on their strange moves. Distaned from their own senses can use one sense at a time. According the data from 2021, incidende od autism is 1:88, and it is considered that in Europe more than 5 million people have pervasive developmental disorders, viz autism spectum disorder. Prevalence is higher in the male population than female (5:1). Cause of disorder for autism spectrum is not known and that is condition with which is individual born with.
