Telehealth Occupational Therapy for Autism Spectrum Disorder

This study is testing a telehealth (remote healthcare) version of an occupational therapy program called OT4ASD for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The program helps families and caregivers learn how to adapt daily routines to meet their child's sensory needs. We are looking for children aged 4 to 12 years old who have an ASD diagnosis and sensory challenges. The study will measure changes in daily living skills and autism behaviors over about 14 weeks to see how well the telehealth program works. The current status of this study is unclear, and it plans to enroll 10 participants.
