ICD-11 code : 6A04;
Preferred Label : Developmental motor coordination disorder;
ICD-11 definition : Developmental motor coordination disorder is characterised by a significant delay
in the acquisition of gross and fine motor skills and impairment in the execution
of coordinated motor skills that manifest in clumsiness, slowness, or inaccuracy of
motor performance. Coordinated motor skills are markedly below that expected given
the individual's chronological age and level of intellectual functioning. Onset of
coordinated motor skills difficulties occurs during the developmental period and is
typically apparent from early childhood. Coordinated motor skills difficulties cause
significant and persistent limitations in functioning (e.g. in activities of daily
living, school work, and vocational and leisure activities). Difficulties with coordinated
motor skills are not solely attributable to a Disease of the Nervous System, Disease
of the Musculoskeletal System or Connective Tissue, sensory impairment, and not better
explained by a Disorder of Intellectual Development.;
