The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) is offering a series of three 30-minute educational webinars focused on enhancing the education of pediatric primary care clinicians regarding fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASDs). The educational webinars will feature clinical practices including identification, diagnosis and care planning for children with FASDs.

This webinar (#1) will focus on defining the terms used to describe the conditions that fall under the umbrella of fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASDs), describing the signs that may indicate prenatal alcohol exposure and a possible condition along the continuum of FASDs.

Participants will be oriented to the diagnostic assessment including the areas of the brain affected by prenatal alcohol exposure, approaches to delivering the diagnosis, and indications for referral.
