DISCLAIMER

Neurodevelopmental Disability diagnosis is the signal for most Doctors, Psychiatrists, Psychologists and Therapists to tell the hapless parent of the neurodevelopmentally delayed child, that the child should be treated by various forms of Counselling, Teaching and Rehabilitation therapies only. Brain is either not damaged (everything is caused by bad society or bad parental upbringing) or that the damage is not proved or that there is nothing that can be done to heal the brain damage now.
A dedicated search on Googlescolar.com using appropriate key words and ending with the term filetype:pdf will bring the parent closer to the truth.

It IS TRUE that a lot more needs to be done by institutions that have a rock-solid sincere professional Rehab team plus all necessary equipment plus a full fledged team of inquisite, dedicated, research-minded medical doctors and personnel who can carry out evidence based scientific research based on close monitoring of all international trends and trials conducted. We agree that there very few such Rehab institutions in India, with UDAAN for the Disabled leading from the front in conducting such research since the year 2001.

On behalf of UDAAN, we wish to clarify that the information being provided in this website are mostly verified, with some parts of research on Biomedical/DAN! Protocol, MB12 Therapy, Stem Cell Therapy, etc. still not verified to a significant extent. There are many papers published on these topics in peer reviewed international recognized and accredited medical journals, whose references are available in googlescholar.com if a proper search is done, and the searcher agrees to spend US$ 35+ per paper download. This is something MOST doctors do not want to do, and such doctors continue to remain ignorant of the progress made in this line, like frogs in a well.

To continue, Stem Cell Therapy, Biomedical Therapies, and other cutting edge neuro-restorative regenerative approaches still remain unverified. We are going to discuss them all the same to provide information at a place, and we would not be made liable or what so ever for the information.

Please understand that our compilation of these data are meant to help parents make an informed choice of therapies to choose when they themselves, on their own decision, wish to try experimental procedures when nothing else is working.
Such parents are known to keep running all over the place, window-shopping for an elusive cure, to help their child. This scenario is seen all too often among parents of children with poor prognosis diagnosis like Mitochondrial Disease, Muscular Dystrophy, Spinal Motor Neuron Disease, Autism, CP, Rett Syndrome, etc.

We very emphatically advise every seeker of experimental therapies for their child to study extensively, and ask a lot of difficult therapy related questions to the service provider, and to trust only those who can give transparent, verifiable, honest advice, regarding the possibilities as well as risks of the said therapies. Many experimental therapies have guidelines issued in public interest by Indian Council of Medical Research, even though they may not yet have graduated to the level of "LAW". This is especially true of Stem Cell Therapy. Seek out who has a proper scientific protocol, explained to you in detail, and which has been submitted to ICMR and other mandatory regulating authorities, before choosing where to ghet your child treated.
