Managing Chronic Health Needs in Child Care and Schools—Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS)
- Created in chronic_health_needs
Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is a collection of inherited conditions that cause the tissues that connect parts of the body (connective tissue) to be loose. This can cause loose joints, stretchy skin, and delayed healing of the skin. This collection of conditions was reclassified in 2017, so it is important to have information that is specific to the child.
