✦ Synopsis

This article reviews studies evaluating the effectiveness of early intervention for children with Down syndrome. Evaluation of early intervention programs is difficult and challenging, given the wide variety of experimental designs and the limitations of research studies. Overall, however, positive changes were seen in the development of children who were exposed t o early intervention programs. Children with Down syndrome and their families are likely to benefit from early intervention.

The highest mortality occurred in the first month of life (7.%); survival was about 80% at 1 year, 78% at 2 years, and 76% at 5 years, with small decreases thereafter.
