Outpatient clinic
The outpatient department of the Children's Hospital Schömberg contributes to the medical outpatient neuropaediatric care in the surrounding area. The outpatient clinic can only be visited after an appointment has been made.
It serves only exceptionally for the treatment of (neuropaediatric) emergencies in known patients. For all other emergencies, please contact your paediatrician, the paediatric emergency service or the ambulance service.
The majority of patients present because of developmental problems, behavioural problems, recurring headaches, epilepsy (suspected), ADH symptoms, suspected autism or neurological diseases that have already been clarified. These include movement disorders, inpatient and progressive neurological syndromes, so-called cerebral palsies or malformation syndromes.
In the context of the outpatient appointment, an EEG can be performed. If necessary, it can also be clarified during an outpatient appointment whether there is a need for an inpatient stay; if so, it can be planned. Under certain circumstances, pre- or post-inpatient follow-ups are also useful in known patients.
Outpatient medical care is predominantly clinical-assessment and counselling or developmental support.
For some special questions, such as botulinum toxin administration for spasticity or dystonia, and in individual cases for endoscopic examinations, you are welcome to make an outpatient appointment.
