Childhood health and development - european multicentre study on congenital toxoplasmosis

Ziel

Up to 1 in every 1000 children is born with congenital toxoplasmosis but information is lacking on the effect of the disease and prenatal treatment for toxoplasmosis on the child's ability to function and learn. The study involves the assessment, by parent-completed questionnaire, of disability, developmental impairment, behaviour problems and parental anxiety in a cohort of 1278 three year olds born to toxoplasma-infected women. Protocols will be developed for further assessments at age 6 years. Comparisons of infected and uninfected children will allow estimation of the effects of congenital toxoplasmosis and prenatal treatment on adverse developmental outcomes. The findings will have implications for parent counselling, education and psychological needs of infected children, and for screening policies.
