Syndromes Without A Name USA is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing support to the families of children living with an undiagnosed medical condition

What is a Syndrome?

 A Syndrome is a group of signs, symptoms, or features that occur together and create a picture which may suggest the presence of a particular medical condition or disorder.

Symptoms are subjective evidence of a medical condition that are experienced by a patient and reported in the medical history such as pain, nausea, or dizziness.

Signs are objective evidence of a disorder that a physician or nurse can recognize during a physical examination such as wheezing, visual impairment, or a seizure.
