No clinical practice guidelines for SLC6A1-related neurodevelopmental disorder (SLC6A1-NDD) have been published yet.
• Treatment of seizures should be based on seizure semiology and management by an experienced neurologist should be considered.
• Behavioral issues, sleep issues and bowel dysfunction should be managed by standard interventions.
• Management should be coordinated, as it might possibly include many subspecialities, equipment, medications, and supplies.
• Consider education of parents/caregivers.
• Consider genetic counselling.
Surveillance could include:
• Paediatric: developmental progress and needs, gastrointestinal issues
• OT/PT: Assessment of mobility and self-help
• Neurological: seizure monitoring as needed, assessment for seizures or movement disorders
• Psychiatric: Assessment of behaviour (ASD, ADHD, aggression, self-injury, anxiety, sleep disorders)
• Family needs for support (social work support, care coordination, genetic counselling)
