The TAND-SQ is a self-report quantified checklist that individuals with TSC or their caregivers can use to document TAND difficulties. The TAND-SQ also allows for the quantification of the severity of TAND within the last month. Scroll down for more information on both TAND Checklists.

4.Symptoms and Manifestations TSC
Annual surveillance recommendations for individuals with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) include regular monitoring for various manifestations like brain tumors (SEGA), seizures, kidney problems, and lung issues, as well as screening for TSC-associated neuropsychiatric disorders (TAND). These recommendations are tailored to the individual’s age, symptoms, and specific TSC features.

3.Surveillance Recommendations TSC
The consensus recommendations should provide a systematic framework to approach the identification and treatment of TAND for health, educational, social care teams and families who live with TSC. To ensure global dissemination and implementation of these recommendations, partnerships with the international TSC community will be important. One of these steps will include the generation of a “TAND toolkit” of “what to seek” and “what to do” when difficulties are identified in TAND clusters.
