The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) acknowledges PANS/PANDAS as syndromes characterized by abrupt onset of dramatic behavioral and neuropsychiatric symptoms in children.

Guidelines for Providers
Healthcare providers seeking guidance on evaluating and treating Pediatric Acute-Onset Neuropsychiatric Syndrome (PANS) and Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders Associated with Streptococcal Infections (PANDAS) are encouraged to consult the PANDAS Physicians Network’s Diagnostic and Treatment Guidelines. These guidelines are regularly updated based on the latest research and clinical insights.
