Every year on 9 October, patients, families and healthcare professionals
come together to raise awareness and spread understanding of paediatric
autoimmune neuropsychiatric disorder associated with Streptococcus (PANDAS)
and paediatric acute-onset neuropsychiatric syndrome (PANS).
What are PANDAS and PANS?
PANDAS and PANS are autoimmune disorders, meaning that they are caused by
the immune system attacking a person’s own tissues. In the case of
PANDAS/PANS, the immune system attacks structures in the brain called the
basal ganglia, which are found at the base of the forebrain [1]. These
structures are thought to be involved in movement and behaviour; therefore,
symptoms of PANDAS/PANS include motor tics, obsessive compulsive disorder
(OCD), deterioration of handwriting, mood swings, sleep disturbances,
restricted eating, irritability and anxiety.
