Despite the increasing prevalence of neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD), data regarding access to child development services have remained limited globally.

The aim is to retrospectively analyse the demographic profile and prioritisation of patients seen at a child developmental assessment service (CDAS) in a vulnerable region of Sydney, and explore factors affecting wait times.
