The Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers â Revised, with Follow-Up (M-CHATâR/F) â is a free, two-step screening tool used to detect children likely to have autism. It is intended for use at regular well-child checkups for children 16 to 30 months old. With the M-CHAT-R/F, health care providers can classify a childâs risk of having autism as low, medium or high, on the basis of parentsâ answers to 20 questions.
Everyone needs protection from tetanus. The DTaP vaccine (diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis) can help prevent tetanus in young children. DTaP shots are recommended for healthy babies at ages 2, 4, and 6 months, and again at 15 through 18 months. A DTaP booster is recommended for children ages 4 through 6 years old. Because immunity to tetanus decreases over time, older children need to get the Tdap vaccine.
