In the initial entry, the basic and essential anamnestic data of the examined child are summarised. A significant area of focus is the determination of initial and final diagnoses of communication ability. The central section is dedicated to a comprehensive exposition of the direct speech and language therapy intervention, including diagnostic tools used, assessment procedures and assistive devices.
