- Lead Sponsor
- Uskudar University
- Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to examine the effect of vestibular and proprioceptive exercise practices on the hyperactivity level in children with autism spectrum disorder.
- Detailed Description
The families of all children participating in the study will be informed and their written consent will be obtained. Vestibular and proprioceptive evaluation, hyperactivity evaluation and nystagmus evaluation will be applied to each child participating in the study twice, before and after treatment. Children will be divided into two groups: an exercise group and a control group, consisting of equal numbers of patients. A classical physical therapy program will be applied to both groups. In addition to the exercise group, a treatment program including vestibular and proprioceptive exercise training will be applied. The training program for both groups will be held in 40-minute sessions, 2 days a week for 8 weeks.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Vanderbilt Assessment Scale 8 weeks Both parent and teacher assessment scales have two components: symptom assessment and impairment in performance. The symptom assessment component screens for symptoms relevant to inattentive and hyperactive ADHD subtypes. To meet criteria for ADHD diagnoses, one must have 6 positive responses to either the core 9 inattentive symptoms or core 9 hyperactive symptoms, or both.
A positive response is either a score of 2 or 3 ("often" to "very often"). The final 8 questions of both versions ask the respondent to rate the child's performance in school and his or her interactions with others on a 1-5 scale, with 1-2 meaning "above average", 3 meaning "average", and 4-5 meaning "problematic".
To meet the criteria for ADHD, there must be at least one score for the performance set that is a 5, or two scores that are at least 4, as these scores indicate impairment in performance.Postrotary Nystagmus Assessment Test 8 weeks The most common diagnostic assessment for vestibular function includes use of the postrotary nystagmus test17 and clinical observation. The postrotary nystagmus test is used to identify whether a child has a vestibular disability During the test, the subject is seated on a rotation disk, with his or her head fixed in a 30-degree angle forward, to ensure that the semicircular canals are horizontal.19 Next, the subject is rotated for ten clockwise or counterclockwise rotations, at 2 seconds per rotation. The subject is asked to gaze forward with both eyes, and the examiner observes the degree of nystagmus produced by the rotations.
Sensory Profile Test 8 weeks Sensory Profile is a report-based questionnaire that is applied to measure the sensory processing abilities of children between the ages of 3-10 and to reveal the effects of the sensory processing process on the functional performance of children in their daily lives, and can determine children's sensory performances in detail. The survey can be applied to children with different types and degrees of disability. Mother, father or caregiver; That is, the evaluation is carried out by the people who are primarily responsible for the child's care by rating the 33 items in the survey according to their frequency. Items are scored as "always = 1, often = 2, sometimes = 3, rarely = 4, never = 5". Raw score totals for each section and factor in the survey. Higher scores indicate a higher frequency of specific sensory responses.
