What is Downs Syndrome about?
Down syndrome, also known as trisomy 21, is a chromosomal disorder characterized by an extra chromosome 21, affecting approximately 1 in 800 to 1 in 1000 newborns, with higher risks associated with older maternal age. Clinical features include developmental delays, congenital heart defects, sensory deficits, and various physical growth abnormalities. Management involves early stimulation, physiotherapy, and addressing associated health issues, with a focus on supportive counseling for families.
