The results of the DDST are classified into three categories: - Normal: The child is developing within the expected range for their age. - Suspect: The child may have some developmental delays and requires further evaluation. - Untestable: The child could not be adequately tested, often due to non-cooperation or other factors.
Nurses must be skilled in interpreting these results to determine the next steps, which may include further testing or referral to a specialist.
