مستخلص: | The primary aim of this study was to characterize Cognitive Disengagement Syndrome (CDS) symptomatology in youth with spina bifida (SB). One hundred and sixty-nine patients aged 5–19 years old were drawn from clinical cases seen through a multidisciplinary outpatient SB clinic at a children's hospital between 2017 and 2019. Parent-reported CDS and inattention were measured using Penny's Sluggish Cognitive Tempo Scale and the Vanderbilt ADHD Rating Scale. Self-reported internalizing symptoms were measured with the 25-item Revised Children's Anxiety and Depression Scale (RCADS-25). We replicated Penny's proposed 3-factor structure of CDS with slow, sleepy, and daydreamer components. The slow component of CDS overlapped heavily with inattention, while the sleepy and daydreamer components were distinct from inattention and internalizing symptoms. Eighteen percent (22 of 122) of the full sample met criteria for elevated CDS, and 39% (9 of 22) of those patients did not meet criteria for elevated inattention. Diagnosis of myelomeningocele and presence of a shunt were associated with greater CDS symptoms. CDS can be measured reliably in youth with SB and can be discriminated from inattention and internalizing symptoms in this population. ADHD rating scale measures fail to identify a substantial portion of the SB population with attention-related challenges. Standard screening for CDS symptoms in SB clinics may be important to help identify clinically impairing symptoms and design targeted treatment plans. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
