Abstract/OtherAbstract:
OBJECTIVE: Several hypotheses of different medical and psychological delayed manifestations among people who have congenital rubella syndrome (CRS) have been discussed. This study tests some of these hypotheses of delayed manifestations.
METHODS: Gathering information about 35 individuals who have CRS and who are congenitally deafblind.
RESULTS: None of the hypotheses could be confirmed when individuals with CRS were compared to a control group of individuals who were congenital deafblind with different aetiology than CRS.
CONCLUSIONS: This study concludes that those health related problems which people with CRS face must primarily be understood in relation to congenital deafblindness and dual sensory and communicative deprivation.
