Filter by:The goal of this proposed study is to pilot test a novel treatment model (PRE-CARE) addressing unmet social needs for families of preschool-age children with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) symptoms. The investigators will conduct an adaptive, pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) of the intervention with parents of 60 low-income children age 3-5 (36-71 months) with ADHD symptoms in order to: optimize intervention delivery; field test study logistics (e.g., recruitment, enrollment, randomization, retention); explore putative intervention mechanisms; and obtain estimates of study parameters to plan an appropriately powered RCT of the intervention. The PRE-CARE intervention is adapted from Well Child Care, Evaluation, Community, Resources, Advocacy, Referral, Education (WE CARE), a screening and referral intervention that has been shown to be feasible and effective in addressing the family psychosocial stressors of low-income families seen in pediatric medical homes. Given the negative impact that socioeconomic stressors can have on the health and development of young children with ADHD symptoms, tailored interventions such as PRE-CARE may serve as a vital early intervention strategy to promote long-term well-being.
Spatial neglect is a common post-stroke condition in which people may not be aware of anything on one side of the world (usually the same side they lost their movement). Currently, there is no effective treatment for spatial neglect. A therapy called SIGHT (Spatial Inattention Grasping Home-based Therapy) has shown early evidence of improving stroke survivors' spatial neglect (Rossit et al., 2019). SIGHT involves individuals picking-up and balance wooden rods with their less affected hand, independently, without the need for a therapist present at all times. Working with stroke survivors, carers and clinicians we have developed of a computerized version of SIGHT (c-SIGHT; Morse et al., in press). The present trial aims to: 1) investigate the feasibility of a blinded randomized controlled trial of c-SIGHT (active intervention) vs. an attentional control training version of c-SIGHT (sham intervention) in the homes of stroke survivors with spatial neglect; 2) Explore participant's experience using c-SIGHT independently at home; and 3) Explore the potential effects and effect size of c-SIGHT active intervention compared to the attentional control training to inform a future Phase II trial.
This is a study evaluating the relationship between prenatal nutrition and neural development in infants born to mothers with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). We are hypothesizing that women randomized to a whole food, nutrient-dense diet during their 3rd trimester of pregnancy will have infants with more advanced neural development as compared to infants born to mothers receiving standard-of-care treatment.
