Brief Summary

Among the items of the Comprehensive Attention Test (CAT), the test group with NeuroWorld DTx digital therapy did not significantly increase compared to the control group with only existing drug therapy in the areas of omission error, false alarm error, forward response mean, and forward response standard deviation. Simple selectiveism (visual, auditory), inhibitory persistence, interference selectiveism, and divisionalism all showed a decreasing trend on the 28th day compared to baseline, so additional clinical trials are considered necessary. In the Korean version of the ADHD Rating Scale (K-ARS), the test group decreased by 20.81%, 23.82%, and 17.73%, respectively, in terms of total score, carelessness, and over-impulse. It is believed that clinical effectiveness can be confirmed through additional clinical trials. The Korean version of the Korean Child Behavior Checklist (K-CBCL) showed no significant difference between the test and control groups in the rate of change at 28 days compared to baseline, but it was confirmed that it steadily decreased on 14 and 28 days compared to baseline in all items. Among K-WISC-V), a processing speed (symbol writing and isomorphism finding) test was performed. As a result, it was confirmed that the rate of change on the 14th day in the sum of the converted scores was 0.64% lower in the test group than in the control group, but increased by 6.93% at the rate of change on the 28th day. Through this, it was confirmed that the parallelism of NeuroWorld DTx treatment improved visual injection, visual discrimination, visual short-term memory, and visual-exercise cooperation. In addition, there were no adverse events of frustration, headache, or dizziness in patients with ADHD during the clinical trial, confirming its safety.
