The European guidelines for Tourette syndrome (TS) is developed by the European Society for the Study of Tourette syndrome (ESSTS).

Summary statement

The Tourette Syndrome poster
– a communication tool

The posters and associated material are designed to support and supplement the communication of the most significant difficulties experienced by individuals who have been diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome.

The primary target group for the material are professionals responsible for assessing and diagnosing children and young individuals with Tourette Syndrome, but can also be valuable for other professionals who meet these people in their work. 

The material contains two posters – one about motor and vocal tics, and one about common secondary problems, in addition to dialogue cards containing the same text and illustrations as the poster. 

The material is currently available in Norwegian, English and German.
