Abstract
PURPOSE
Perform an integrative literature review on ways to improve somatic care access for people with autistic spectrum disorders (PASD).
DESIGN AND METHODS
Integrative review as described by Whittemore and Kanfl methodology has been chosen by the author to concatenate knowledge about somatic care situation and existing processes that could improve its access for PASD. The PRISMA diagram was applied for its synthetic and visual modeling of the research process.
FINDINGS
Barriers that reduce somatic care access were discussed by five of the six selected articles, which suggest fields of improvement by using bio-psycho-sensorial profiling tools for PASD, healthcare preparation protocols, or visual pathway tools to prevent behavioral disorders.
PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS
Somatic care access for people with autism is improved by the tools presented in this review.
