title: [Developmental delay in students starting school and possibilities for detection in preschool screening by the public health office].
abstract: There is an incomplete degree of school maturity in approximately ten per cent of our school beginners because of developmental delays which may have genetic or psychosocial causes or may be caused by an infantile cerebral dysfunction. A consequence of these developmental delays are the partial disturbances of performance frequently resulting in failure at school. An early registration of the partial disturbances of performance for example at pre-school medical check-ups is important for the prognosis of these children. The examination scheme of the Public Health office Schweinfurt is presented.
