Summary
This trial adapts an evidence-based occupational therapy intervention to a telehealth delivery model to address the sensory motor symptoms of ASD and measure outcomes in daily activities.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for children aged between 4 and 12 years with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) who show sensory symptoms. Families must be willing to participate in the study, and the children should be physically capable of engaging in active sensorimotor activities.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing OT4ASD, an occupational therapy intervention adapted for telehealth delivery. It aims to see if this remote therapy helps improve daily living skills in kids with ASD by using tailored sensory motor activities.
What are the potential side effects?
Since OT4ASD involves non-medical interventions like occupational therapy via telehealth, there are no direct medical side effects. However, participants may experience fatigue or frustration during sensorimotor activities.
