O presente trabalho trata-se de um estudo, onde é apresentado um caso clínico. Com ele
constitui-se como objetivo analisar uma criança com 6 anos de idade, que nasceu portadora de
um atraso global no desenvolvimento.
Esta criança esteve em estudo genético desde 2007 até maio de 2012. Após uma exaustão de
intervenções foi identificada uma deleção no cromossoma 8.
Os instrumentos utilizados tiveram em consideração as características da criança. Realizou-se a
história de vida da criança, desenhos espontâneos ao longo do percurso de investigação, e a
aplicação da Escala de Avaliação das Competências no Desenvolvimento Infantil – SGS II, para
avaliar o grau de maturidade.
De um modo geral, Nuno revela ter um quociente cognitivo de 30 meses, o que evidencia o atraso
global no desenvolvimento. Os dados das avaliações mostram que Nuno tem as suas
competências mais desenvolvidas a nível da visão, da audição e da autonomia pessoal, sendo as
suas competências mais fracas nas áreas locomotora na fala e linguagem.
Em conclusão, o estudo evidência que o menino apresenta um quadro de deficiência mental
grave. No entanto Nuno revela ter aptidão para desenvolver as suas capacidades, visto desde o
início da investigação (de outubro de 2011 até outubro de 2012), ter demonstrado alguns
progressos, nomeadamente na interação social e na autonomia pessoal. Nuno poderá evoluir
dentro do seu perfil, através de estimulação adequada. No entanto irá sempre apresentar um
desfasamento importante quando comparado com crianças da mesma idade cronológica.

This child was been study genetic from 2007 until may 2012. After an exhaustion of interventions was identified a deletion on chromosome 8. The instruments used were the characteristics of the child. The history of the child's life, spontaneous drawings along the way of research, and the application of the scale of assessment of skills in child development-SGS II, to evaluate the degree of maturity. Generally speaking, Nuno reveals to have a 30-month cognitive quotient, which highlights the global development delay.
