早期发现和有效的循证实践正在逐渐改善自闭症谱系障碍 (ASD) 患者的治疗结果。尽管有些人成年后仍需要大量支持,但现在越来越多的人正在上大学、变得独立并结婚。随着成年期的过渡,自闭症谱系障碍患者将面临许多重大挑战。了解这些挑战的医疗保健提供者可以帮助促进更好的结果并为那些需要更高水平护理的人提供支持。我们总结了患有自闭症谱系障碍的青少年在过渡到成年后所面临的挑战,并指出了需要更多研究的领域。
Earlier detection and effective, evidence-based practices are gradually improving outcomes for people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Although some continue to need intensive support as adults, an increasing number are now going to college, becoming independent, and marrying. With the transition to adulthood, people with ASD will face a number of significant challenges. Health care providers who are knowledgeable about these challenges can help foster better outcomes and support those requiring higher levels of care. We summarize the challenges faced by youth with ASD as they transition into adulthood and note areas where more research is needed.
