E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT This guideline for care of children with craniosynostosis was developed by a national working group with representatives of 11 matrix societies of specialties and the national patients’ society. All medical aspects of care for nonsyndromic and syndromic craniosynostosis are included, as well as the social and psychologic impact for the patient and their parents. Managerial aspects are incorporated as well, such as organizing a timely referral to the craniofacial center, requirements for a dedicated craniofacial center, and centralization of this specialized care. The conclusions and recommendations within this document are founded on the available literature, with a grading of the level of evidence, thereby highlighting the areas of care that are in need of high-quality research. The development of this guideline was made possible by an educational grant of the Dutch Order of Medical Specialists. The development of this guideline was supported by an educational grant of the Dutch Order of Medical Specialists. Contents Chapter 1. General introduction 1735 Chapter 2.

GENERAL INTRODUCTION Objective This guideline provides recommendations for medical practice on suspicion of craniosynostosis and after confirmation of this diagnosis. It is based on the results of scientific research and subsequent forming of opinion by a multidisciplinary working group, composed of representatives of the medical specialties involved in the treatment of craniosynostosis, related professional disciplines, and other parties involved. The wishes of parents and health professionals regarding the organization of health care for craniosynostosis were inventoried. The guideline document addresses the important issues for the support of parents with a child with a craniosynostosis. Method Employed by the Working Group The content of this guideline is based on evidence from published scientific research. Relevant articles were identified using systematic searches in Medline, Embase, and the Cochrane Library. Existing guidelines were specifically searched for in online accessible international and national guideline clearinghouses. Searches were limited to the Dutch, English, and French languages. In addition, articles were extracted from reference lists of relevant literature. This resulted in additional articles for several basic questions. Care for children with craniosynostosis was introduced in the late 1960s and consequently the English literature from those years onwards was included. Searches were performed until December 1, 2009 and articles available as “Epub ahead of publication” at that date were included as well. The following search terms were used: craniofacial, craniosynostosis combined with: genetics, hydrocephalus, Chiari, cerebral pressure, otitis, hearing, vision, psychology, anesthesia, complications, infection, development, growth, maxilla, mandible, distraction, osteotomy, Fort, midface, RED, halo, monobloc, facial bipartition, median faciotomy, and hypertelorism. Relevant articles extracted from reference lists of retrieved literature and several relevant publicati

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
