pubmed:abstractText |
Rett syndrome is a neurological disorder almost exclusively affecting females. Information on its genetic basis has recently become available. However there is little information on the burden and impact of this disorder on the family despite the apparent variability in phenotype. The purpose of this study was to obtain information on the burden and impact of Rett syndrome by examining the functional abilities, medical needs and use of medical, therapy and accommodation services in the sample.
