Filter by:The investigators propose to conduct a pilot randomized controlled feasibility trial to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of a pre-visit intervention to improve communication about attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. The investigators will enroll 140 English-speaking youth ages 11-17 with an ADHD medical record diagnosis who screen as having predominantly inattentive subtype, hyperactive/impulsive subtype, or combined inattention/hyperactivity on the Vanderbilt parent assessment scale from three pediatric clinics. Teh investigators will randomize the families to receive both the question prompt lists and video (N=35), just the question prompt lists (N=35), just the video (N=35), or usual care (N=35). This will allow the team to understand whether both the video and question prompt list components are needed for the larger trial. The aims of the investigators are: Aim 1: To examine whether the ADHD question prompt lists and/or pre-visit video significantly impact the proposed mechanisms of the intervention. The team will investigate whether adolescents and parents in each of the intervention groups: (a) ask more questions and receive more provider education about ADHD during their baseline and 3-month visits and (b) have higher self-efficacy at 3 and 6 months than adolescents and parents in the usual care group. Aim 2: To investigate the effectiveness of the ADHD question prompt lists and/or the pre-visit video by examining whether adolescents in each of the intervention groups have improved ADHD symptoms, school and social performance, and quality-of-life at 6 months compared to those in the usual care group. Aim 3: To assess adolescent, parent, and provider feedback on the acceptability, feasibility, tolerability, and safety of using the ADHD question prompt lists and/or the pre-visit video. The results from this pilot trial will be used to inform a larger trial by: (a) identifying the intervention arm with the greatest potential impact, acceptability, feasibility, and tolerability, and (b) determine the best mechanisms and outcome variables to assess in a larger trial.
This is a 2-month study in which eligible ADHD adolescents will be provided with personalized VIZO Glasses
The objective of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of an at-home, game-based digital therapy for treating adult patients with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
The randomized control trial (RCT) study includes 2 aims; one being to test whether START increases access to treatment for ADHD. Investigators believe the intervention group will demonstrate improved treatment engagement and access to all treatments compared to controls. The second aim is to explore whether START leads to functional improvements across home, social and academic domains for the child and family. Investigators believe the intervention group will show better functioning including improved family and peer relationships and reduced parent stress compared to controls. Before taking part in our study all participants will undergo a psychiatric evaluation. Eligible participants will be randomized to START while controls receive a pamphlet with ADHD information. Students and staff with related experience who are not mental health professionals will be trained to deliver START. START includes 6 modules, typically delivered over 6 sessions.
This is a 2-months study, where eligible ADHD adult participants will be provided with personalized VIZO glasses.
This study aims to assess the behavioral as well cognitive changes in ADHD symptoms in terms of improvement of inhibitory control and attention in adults with ADHD
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the impact of the diabetes drug glibenclamide (glyburide) on neurodevelopment in individuals with iDEND (developmental delay, epilepsy and neonatal diabetes) due to the V59M mutation in the KCNJ11 gene. The main question it aims to answer is whether initiating sulphonylurea (SU) therapy in the first year of life results in better neurodevelopmental outcomes in affected individuals, in comparison to starting therapy later than 12 months of age. Participants will undergo a neurodevelopmental assessment comprising parental and teacher completion of standardised questionnaires, and where possible face to face neuropsychological testing. Researchers will compare the outcomes of these standardised tests in the individuals who started SU therapy <12 months of age in comparison to those who started >12 months of age.
Purpose: To determine the effect of 8-week kids yoga training on balance, reaction time and agility on children diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Method: A randomized controlled trial. The intervention (kids yoga) was an 8-week program administered to children attending a special education center by a yoga instructor occupational therapist. Outcomes included Pediatric Balance Scale, Bruininks-Oseretsky Motor Proficiency Test-Short Form, and Microgate Witty SEM System assessed at baseline and at the end of 8th week.
This observational study is a first orientation on the effects and feasibility of a group training to plan and organize for adolescents with attention deficit disorder (ADHD). This study focuses on the following questions: - Is there an improvement on planning skills after training? - Are there fewer ADHD characteristics after training? - Is there an improvement on self-esteem after training? - How feasible is a group training for adolescents with ADHD? - How satisfied are practitioners and adolescents about the training? Based on the effect-size of the individual training variant, the literature on the effect of group treatment and the adolescent target group, in which the peer group gets more important, the hypothesis is that the group training Plan My Life Together will have a medium to large effect on planning skills. Furthermore, positive effects on ADHD characteristics and self-esteem are also expected. The assumption is that Plan My Life Together is feasible and suitable.
This study develops a web-based PD (CLS-R) to provide SSWs with remote training in EBPs for attention and behavior problems. CLS-R is designed to be usable, feasible, portable, accessible, and acceptable - ingredients which have been identified as necessary for the sustainability of school-based programs. The study evaluates the usability, feasibility, acceptability, fidelity of implementation, and preliminary effects on student outcomes.
